The Detroit Red Wings have traded the rights to forward Dmytro Timashov to the New York Islanders for future considerations.
Timashov, a restricted free agent, played five games with the Red Wings last season after Detroit claimed him off waivers from the Toronto Maple Leafs in late February.
The 24-year-old reunites with Lou Lamoriello, the Islanders' president and general manager, who left the Maple Leafs to join New York in May 2018.
Timashov collected four goals and five assists in 39 contests during his first NHL season with Toronto in 2019-20. Before that, the Ukrainian winger played three campaigns with the AHL's Toronto Marlies, helping them win the Calder Cup in 2018.
The Maple Leafs drafted him 125th overall in 2015.
