The 2024 NHL Draft lottery took place on Tuesday night, and with the Pittsburgh Penguins not winning it to move off of the No. 14 overall pick it officially transferred over to the San Jose Sharks as part of the Erik Karlsson trade.
With that piece of business now official, the Karlsson trade is in the books with the Penguins ultimately trading Nathan Legare, Jeff Petry, Casey DeSmith, Mikael Granlund, Jan Ruuta and the No. 14 overall pick in the 2024 NHL Draft for Karlsson.
Knowing for certain what the pick is, my opinion on the trade remains unchanged.
