The Coyotes have acquired center Carl Soderberg from the Colorado Avalanche in exchange for defenseman Kevin Connauton and a 2020 third-round pick, league sources confirmed Tuesday

Soderberg, 33, scored 23 goals last season and tallied 49 points. He is in the final year of his contract and is set to make just short of $5 million for the upcoming season

Connauton is also on the final year of his contract and didn’t have much of a role on the Coyotes' blue line, which is already locked up 1-7.
