"The occasionally stormy tenure of Kyle Turris in the desert has come to an end.

The Phoenix Coyotes have traded Turris to the Ottawa Senators.

In return Phoenix receives defenceman David Rundblad and a second round draft pick.

Turris, who was a restricted free agent after last season, was unable to come to terms on a new deal with the Coyotes over the summer and held out for the first six weeks of the season. Turris finally returned to the team after signing a two-year, $2.8 million deal on Nov. 22.

The 22-year-old native of New Westminster, B.C. has appeared in six games for the Coyotes since signing, but has not registered a point. In 65 games last season in Phoenix, Turris posted 11 goals and 14 assists."
