The Los Angeles Kings announced today that they’ve acquired forward Viktor Arvidsson from the Nashville Predators, in exchange for a second-round pick in this year’s NHL Draft and a third-round pick in next year’s draft.


Arvidsson is 28 years old and is coming off a season in which he scored 10 goals and 25 points in 50 games, a pace of 16 goals and 41 points per 82 games. He has three years remaining on his contract at a $4.25 million AAV.

Despite the trade, Los Angeles still has a pick in the second round of this year’s draft and a third-round pick in next year’s draft, due to trades involving Alec Martinez and Jeff Carter.


I’ll provide a full analysis of the trade in an article tomorrow.
