What happened: The Pittsburgh Penguins traded defenseman Jack St. Ivany to the Winnipeg Jets in exchange for forward David Gustafsson. The deal swaps two former prospects between the clubs as the offseason roster reshuffling continues.

Why it matters: The trade reshapes organizational depth for both sides heading into the 2026-27 season, with Pittsburgh adding a bottom-six forward option and Winnipeg gaining blue-line depth. It fits the Penguins' ongoing roster retooling, which has already seen the club move pieces this offseason.

What to watch: Watch how St. Ivany and Gustafsson slot into their new clubs' depth charts as 2026-27 training camps approach.
