The Minnesota Wild traded forward Ryan Donato to the San Jose Sharks for a 2021 third-round draft pick, the team announced Monday.
Donato has played well since the Wild acquired him during the 2018-19 season. He led the team in even-strength goals (14) this past campaign despite being largely reduced to a bottom-six role for the majority of the year, averaging just 10:38 of ice time per game.
The 24-year-old has one season remaining on his contract with a cap hit of $1.9 million.
In 130 career games, Donato has amassed 29 goals and 28 assists. The Boston Bruins selected him in the second round of the 2014 NHL Draft.
