The funny way Michael Grabner found out he was traded to the Devils

Michael Grabner found out he was traded to the Devils the same way many other people did.

Twitter.

To be exact, Grabner got a text from a friend on Thursday night, saying he saw on Twitter that the forward had been traded from the Rangers to the Devils.

A few minutes later, Rangers President Glen Sather confirmed the news, which sent the forward to the Devils for a second-round pick and prospect Yegor Rykov.

Grabner was a healthy scratch for Thursday's game in Montreal, with the Rangers prepping to trade him and winger Rick Nash.
