The Capitals have acquired defenseman Michal Kempny from Chicago for a 3rd-round pick.

Kempny has played in 30 games this season, posting 1-6-7 in about 15 minutes a night. He likely could shore up the Capitals’ rough 3rd pair, either by slotting there himself or by pushing Christian Djoos down a pair.
