The Ottawa Senators have announced a trade that brings defenseman Kurtis MacDermid to the team from the New Jersey Devils in exchange for Zack MacEwen. This transaction marks a strategic move for the Senators as they look to bolster their defensive lineup while parting ways with MacEwen, who had shown promise during his time in Ottawa.
MacDermid, known for his physical style of play and defensive capabilities, is expected to add depth to the Senators' blue line. The Senators, who have been working to improve their overall team performance this season, hope that MacDermid's experience will help stabilize their defense, especially as they navigate the challenges of the NHL season.
Conversely, Zack MacEwen joins the Devils, where he aims to carve out a role for himself. His transition to New Jersey presents an opportunity for him to showcase his skills and potentially earn a more significant spot within the Devils' roster. Both teams seem optimistic about the trade, believing that it will benefit their respective lineups as they focus on their goals for the season.
