Blue Jackets fill Gavrikov void by acquiring Flyers' Provorov in three-way trade that includes Kings.
, the team made another offseason splash Tuesday.
The Blue Jackets acquired defenseman Ivan Provorov, 26, in a three-way trade with the Philadelphia Flyers and Los Angeles Kings. Columbus sent its second of two first-round picks in this year's draft plus a conditional second-round pick in 2024 or 2025 to the Flyers in the deal. “Improving our blue line has been a priority for us and acquiring Ivan gives us an established left-shot defenseman who is still a young player with his best seasons in front of him," Blue Jackets general manager Jarmo Kekalainen said in a statement. “He immediately improves our group on defense as he is durable, has great skill, skates well, is an excellent passer with an accurate shot and can effectively play at both ends of the ice.
The Kings first acquired Provorov from the Flyers and flipped him to the Blue Jackets for defenseman Kevin Connauton, whom Columbus acquired from Philadelphia. The Kings, who sent a package of players and picks to the Flyers, will also pick up 30% of Provorov’s contrac, which has two years left and originally carried a $6.75 million charge against the NHL’s salary cap.
