DETROIT - The Detroit Red Wings today acquired defenseman Jeff Petry from the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for defenseman Gustav Lindstrom and a conditional fourth-round pick in the 2025 NHL Entry Draft. Montreal will retain 50 percent of remaining obligations pertaining to Petry's contract. Detroit will pay 37.5 percent of Petry's remaining contract.

Lindstrom and a 4th round pick. Pens retain $1.3 million, Canadiens and Red Wings pay $2.3 million each. Contract has 2 remaining years. Seems like a relatively even trade of a veteran presence for a young defensman.

    We traded a borderline ahl guy for a real pro. Edvinsson also is a left shot and injured. He also wasn’t clearly ready for top level play the little we saw him last year.
