The Florida Panthers are getting close to acquiring Ottawa Senators captain Brady Tkachuk, according to TSN's Pierre LeBrun.
The Senators are reportedly getting the ninth overall pick and 25th overall pick in this year's NHL draft, a first-round pick in 2029 and a second-round pick in 2030, according to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.
Neither team has announced the trade at the time of publishing, so trade details could change. LeBrun reported the Senators tried to acquire center Anton Lundell in the deal, but the Panthers did not want to trade him.
Tkachuk, 26, is reportedly uniting with brother Matthew Tkachuk on a Florida Panthers squad that will try to win their third Stanley Cup in four seasons. The Senators, meanwhile, are getting draft picks to either restock their prospect pool or use as trade assets to add elsewhere.
Tkachuk has two seasons remaining on a seven-year contract worth about $8.2 million annually.
Earlier on Sunday, the Panthers acquired the No. 25 pick from the Seattle Kraken, which originally belonged to the Tampa Bay Lightning, as well as a 2027 conditional second-round pick in exchange for right winger Mackie Samoskevich.
More to come.
