The Golden Knights have acquired forward Teddy Blueger from the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for a 2024 3rd round pick and prospect Peter DiLiberatore.
Blueger is a defense-first, penalty-kill specialist who has scored just 10 points in 45 games this season. He starts 87.2% of his shifts in the defensive zone. His career high in points came last season when he scored 28 (9G, 19A) in 65 games. He received a 4th place vote for Selke in 2019-20, finishing 26th in the voting.
DiLiberatore was a 6th Round pick in 2018 (#180 overall) and is ranked 18th on the SinBin Prospect Rankings.
