Jim O'Brien Finally Gets His Chance!

The Ottawa Senators have recalled C Jim O'Brien from there AHL affiliate in Binghamton, ahead of their matchup in Columbus tonight.

O’Brien, 21, has 12G 13A 27PIMs and is a +10 in 33 games with Binghamtom this season. He was a 1st round selection of Ottawa back in 2007, 29th overall.

At this point of the season, and with Jason Spezza out long-term, it's important for the Ottawa Senators to take a look at what their prospects can do.  I'm very happy that O'Brien is finally getting his shot.  Hopefully guys like Butler (again), Greening, Condra, Daugavins, Wick, and Gryba will get a look sooner, rather than later.
