Nikita Filatov at the 2008 draft in Ottawa

In a fairly shock move, the Senators traded their 3rd round pick (66th overall) to the Columbus Blue Jackets, in exchange for enigmatic forward prospect Nikita Filatov. If you recall, Filatov was picked 6th overall just three years ago here in Ottawa, but has never blossomed as expected in Columbus, clashing with management several times.

What we do know however, is that he is extremely talented and has the potential to be a star player, so for a 3rd round pick, you have to love the move Murray made. I like that we took a chance and are being aggressive to improve. Hopefully a change of scenery will bring out the potential everyone knows he has.

Thoughts on the trade?
