TRADE ALERT 🚨

The Boston Bruins acquired forwards Taylor Hall and Curtis Lazar from the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for forward Anders Bjork and a second-round draft pick, reports TSN's Darren Dreger.

The Sabres retained 50% of Hall's salary, according to TSN's Pierre LeBrun.

Hall was one of the most coveted forwards on the market ahead of Monday's trade deadline. He has two goals and 17 assists in 37 games this season. The 29-year-old inked a one-year deal with the Sabres during the offseason with a value of $8 million.


The former Hart Trophy winner has racked up 220 goals and 362 assists in 664 career games with the Edmonton Oilers, New Jersey Devils, Arizona Coyotes, and Sabres. This marks the third time he's been traded in his career.

Lazar has five goals and four assists in 33 contests. He's been out of the lineup recently with a lower-body injury he suffered on March 31.

Bjork, 24, has collected two goals and three assists in 30 games with the Bruins this season. Previously selected in the fifth round by Boston in 2014, he's totaled 16 goals and 23 assists in 138 career games.
 
TRADE ALERT 🚨

The Vancouver Canucks have traded forward Adam Gaudette to the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for forward Matthew Highmore, the team announced Monday.

Gaudette carries a cap hit of $950,000 and is set to become a restricted free agent after this season. Drafted by the Canucks in the fifth round in 2015, he's registered 52 points in 153 career NHL games.

The 24-year-old was removed from the NHL's COVID-19 protocol list Sunday as Vancouver continues to deal with its outbreak.


Highmore, 25, is under contract through the 2021-22 season with a $725,000 cap hit. He's notched 10 points in 73 games over three NHL campaigns and is averaging under nine minutes of ice time per game this season.
 
The Los Angeles Kings inked forward Alex Iafallo to a four-year contract extension carrying a $4-million cap hit, the club announced Monday.

Iafallo was a pending unrestricted free agent whose current cap hit is $2,425,000.

The 27-year-old was one of the biggest potential trade candidates remaining before agreeing to his new deal. Los Angeles had reportedly begun taking calls from other teams about him while negotiating the new pact.


Iafallo has produced 11 goals and 14 assists over 39 games in 2021.
