Brassard split last season between the Philadelphia Flyers and Edmonton Oilers, recording 19 points in 46 games while averaging 12:55 of ice time per contest.

The 35-year-old spent parts of two seasons with the Senators from 2016-2018, and has suited up for 10 franchises in his 15-year career.

Brassard was drafted sixth overall by the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2006.
