Wild pick up Sundqvist from Red Wings

The Minnesota Wild acquired forward Oskar Sundqvist from the Detroit Red Wings in exchange for a 2023 fourth-rounder, the teams announced Friday.

Sundqvist has seven goals and 14 assists in 52 contests this campaign while seeing 14:16 of ice time per game.

A pending unrestricted free agent, Sundqvist comes with a cap hit of $2.75 million.

The 28-year-old was shipped to Detroit during last season's trade deadline as part of the package that sent defenseman Nick Leddy to the St. Louis Blues.

Sundqvist has 116 points in 340 career NHL games split between the Pittsburgh Penguins, Blues, and Red Wings.

Detroit now holds 28 selections in the next three NHL drafts, including five first-round picks and five second-rounders.
