SAN JOSE, CALIF. - The San Jose Sharks found their starting goaltender for next season, acquiring Martin Jones in a trade from the Boston Bruins on Tuesday.
The Sharks sent a 2016 first-round pick and unsigned forward prospect Sean Kuraly to the Bruins for Jones, four days after he had been dealt from San Jose’s biggest rival Los Angeles to Boston.
“Martin was at the top of our list of players that we had targeted,” general manager Doug Wilson said. “We’re extremely excited to have him on board.”
The Bruins acquired Jones at the draft Friday in a package for left wing Milan Lucic.
