The Pittsburgh Penguins have traded forward Reilly Smith to the New York Rangers. In return, the Penguins will receive a conditional fifth-round pick in 2025 and a second-round pick in 2027. Pittsburgh is retaining 25% of Smith's $5 million annual average value (AAV) salary, leaving the Rangers with a cap hit of $3.75 million for the final year of his contract. Smith, who was acquired by Pittsburgh from the Vegas Golden Knights last summer, posted 13 goals and 40 points in 76 games during his only season with the Penguins. The conditional fifth-round pick will be the worse of the Rangers' and Minnesota's picks, which the Rangers own from a previous trade involving Ryan Reaves. The trade has been made official.
