Penguins Acquire Jason Zucker From Wild for Alex Galchenyuk, Calen Addison

The Penguins acquired Jason Zucker in a trade with the Wild on Monday, Pittsburgh announced.

Minnesota will receive Alex Galchenyuk, Calen Addison and a conditional 2020 first-round draft pick in the deal.

"Jason Zucker is a top-six forward that we think will be a great fit for our group," Penguins general manager Jim Rutherford said in a statement on Monday. "He's a proven goal scorer, and with three more years on his current contract, he has the potential to make an impact for us moving forward."

Zucker, who was rumored to go to Pittsburgh last year, is signed through 2022–23.
