NEWARK, N.J. -- The New Jersey Devils acquired defenseman Jonas Siegenthaler from the Washington Capitals on Sunday for a 2021 third-round pick.
Washington cleared $800,000 in salary-cap space before Monday's trade deadline by dealing one of the eight defensemen on its active roster. New Jersey gets a 23-year-old left shot on the blue line for its rebuilding efforts.
Siegenthaler is a restricted free agent after this season. The 2015 second-round pick from Switzerland has 13 points in 97 career regular-season NHL games, all with the Capitals.
The third-round pick the Devils are sending to the Capitals is either Arizona's that they acquired by trading 2018 MVP Taylor Hall to the Coyotes last year or their own. If the Coyotes don't transfer the pick to New Jersey this year, the Devils will give the Capitals their own third-rounder.
New Jersey put veteran defenseman Sami Vatanen on waivers Sunday and could trade Dmitry Kulikov and Ryan Murray before the deadline.
