The Nashville Predators announced their first move of the 2022 NHL trade deadline Sunday evening with the acquisition of former Seattle Kraken defender Jeremy Lauzon.
With Matt Benning and Mark Borowiecki on injured reserve, it is no surprise to see the Predators look to bolster the bottom end of their defense corps. Lauzon has played 53 games for the Kraken this season, with 1 goal and 5 assists, and is second among Kraken defenders in time spent killing penalties.
Lauzon was picked 52nd overall in the 2015 NHL Draft by the Boston Bruins, and has played 129 NHL games for Boston and Seattle.
