Lightning trade defenceman Mikail Sergachev to Utah, winger Tanner Jeannot to Kings
LAS VEGAS — Utah Hockey Club made a big splash on the second day of the NHL draft.
And the Tampa Bay Lightning cleared a boatload of salary cap space in a matter of minutes.
Utah acquired defenceman Mikhail Sergachev from the Tampa Bay Lightning for centre Conor Geekie, defenceman J.J. Moser, a second-round pick next year and the 199th pick in 2024 on Saturday.
The Lightning then dealt winger Tanner Jeannot to the Los Angeles Kings for a fourth-round pick this year and a second-rounder in 2025.
