Tye Felhaber has scored 42 goals for the Saginaw Spirit in more than two full seasons, but he will spend the rest of the season in Ottawa.

The Spirit traded the 18-year-old left-winger to the Ottawa 67's, along with a pair of fourth-round draft picks.

In exchange, Saginaw receives Ottawa's second-round pick in 2017, Sarnia's second-round pick in 2019, Sarnia's third-round pick in 2019, Sarnia's third-round pick in 2020 and Saginaw's fifth-round pick in 2017.

"From our perspective, this trade gives us four more high-end draft picks," Saginaw general manager Dave Drinkill said in a press release. We also now hold four of the top 40 picks for this upcoming draft. We have a talented crop of young players in the system, along with many draft picks."

Felhaber, 18, is from Pembroke Ontario, approximately two hours from Ottawa.

In a little more than two seasons, Felhaber scored 42 goals with 41 assists in 140 games. He participated in the NHL Prospect Camp with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
