The Tucson Roadrunners announced earlier today that they have acquired forward Jeremy Morin from the Tampa Bay Lightning organization in exchange for Stefan Fournier. Morin has nine goals and 12 assists in 43 games with the American Hockey League Syracuse Crunch this season, and 10 goals and 12 assists in 82 career NHL games.
Morin has racked up quite a few frequent flyer miles in his NHL career. After he was selected 45th overall by the then Atlanta Thrashers in 2009, he was dealt to the Chicago Blackhawks in 2010 as part of Chicago’s effort to shed salary after their Stanley Cup victory.
