Devils trade Gelinas to Avalanche
Ed Mulholland / USA TODAY Sports
The New Jersey Devils have traded defenseman Eric Gelinas to the Colorado Avalanche in exchange for a third-round draft pick in 2017.
Gelinas has spent his entire three-year career with the Devils, but has struggled to remain in the lineup this season. The 24-year-old has dressed in just 34 games, tallying one goal and five assists.
He was drafted by New Jersey in the second round in 2009.
