For the second time in under a year, the LA Kings and NY Rangers pull off a trade.
News broke Saturday evening that the LA Kings had acquired Brendan Lemieux from the NY Rangers for a fourth-round pick in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. The Kings had two fourth-round picks in next year’s draft, and they still own the pick they previously acquired from the Calgary Flames.
The twenty-five-year-old Lemieux can play both left and right-wing and is known to be a gritty, physical player.
