The New York Rangers announced today that the team has acquired a first-round pick in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft from the Carolina Hurricanes in exchange for Brady Skjei. The first-round pick the Rangers receive from Carolina will be the later selection of the two first-round picks that the Hurricanes own (either Carolina's own first-round pick or Toronto's first-round pick).
The Rangers currently own 10 picks in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft (their own-first round pick, the first-round pick they will receive from Carolina, their own third-round pick, Dallas' third-round pick, their own fourth-round pick, their own fifth-round pick, their own sixth-round pick, their own seventh-round pick, Nashville's seventh-round pick, and Vancouver's seventh-round pick).
Skjei skated in 307 games with the Rangers over parts of five seasons (2015-16 - 2019-20), registering 25 goals and 87 assists for 112 points.
