Jeff Marek, Bruce Boudreau, Kelly Hrudey and Brian Burke discuss the Ottawa Senators trading Vladislav Namestnikov to the Colorado Avalanche.

The Ottawa Senators have traded Vladislav Namestnikov to the Colorado Avalanche for a 2021 fourth-round draft pick.

Namestnikov is in the midst of a 13-goal, 25-point campaign with the Senators, by whom he was acquired in an early-season trade with the New York Rangers.

The 27-year-old Russian winger had his most productive season in 2017-18, when he scored 22 goals and 46 points with the Tampa Bay Lightning and Rangers.

The rebuilding Senators are already busy this deadline, also dealing forward Jean-Gabriel Pageau to the Islanders.
