The Los Angeles Kings and the San Jose Sharks have completed a trade involving forward Carl Grundstrom and defenseman Kyle Burroughs. The Kings have sent Grundstrom, a pending restricted free agent with arbitration rights, to the Sharks in exchange for Burroughs. Burroughs, known for his physical play, ranked fourth in the NHL in hits this season and played a significant role on San Jose's defense. He is signed for two more years with a $1.1 million cap hit and recorded 8 points (2 goals, 6 assists) with a -42 rating last season.

The #SJSharks have been busy on the trade front Thursday, acquiring the 11th overall pick in the draft from the Buffalo Sabres and then getting forward Carl Grundstrom from the Los Angeles Kings for defenceman Kyle Burroughs: https://t.co/oWharyXuxq
Burroughs is a physical dude. 4th in the NHL in hits this season by a defensemen. Played a big role (2nd in 5-on-5 time on ice) on a bad San Jose team this season. Looked to be a solid, defense-first bottom-pairing guy in Vancouver in 21/22 and 22/23. https://t.co/j0rE5aK8vz

Grundstrom is a pending RFA with arbitration rights. https://t.co/Tf8egmR7Pv
This move is, uh, interesting. Burroughs is a RHD signed for two more years at a $1.1M cap hit and had 8 points (2g,6a) in 73 games and was a -42 last year for SJ. Figure, or at least I’m hoping, he’ll be fourth on the depth chart behind Doughty, Clarke, and Spence. https://t.co/Kg9FqTj9vY
