On this Sunday night, the Seattle Kraken and the San Jose Sharks have completed a transaction.
The Kraken acquired defenseman
Jaycob Megna from the Sharks, in exchange for a conditional 4th round pick in 2023.
The condition: the pick will be Seattle's or Colorado's. That will be decided by June 15, 2023.
Why is this good news for Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens? Observer Marc-Olivier Beaudoin sums it up very well:
"Complete the sentence: If Jaycob Megna is worth a 4th round pick,
Joel Edmundson is worth?" - Marc-Olivier Beaudoin
Answer: a lot more. And probably a first round pick.
Megna, 30, has 12 points (1 goal) in 48 games this season, and 25 points in his NHL career.
