The Pittsburgh Penguins have been active in trades recently, particularly in the lead-up to and during the 2025 NHL Free Agency period.
Recent Trades (July 1, 2025):
- Alex Nedeljkovic: The Penguins traded goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic to the San Jose Sharks in exchange for a 2028 third-round draft pick. This move is seen as clearing salary cap space and creating an opportunity for younger goaltending prospects like Joel Blomqvist and Sergei Murashov. Nedeljkovic had a $2.5 million cap hit and is signed through the 2025-26 season.
- Connor Clifton: The Penguins acquired defenseman Connor Clifton and a 2025 second-round pick from the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for defenseman Conor Timmins and forward Isaac Belliveau. This adds a physical presence to the Penguins’ defense.
