NEWARK, N.J.—The New Jersey Devils have acquired defenceman Sami Vatanen from the Anaheim Ducks for centre Adam Henrique and forward Joseph Blandisi. New Jersey gets a conditional 2019 or 2020 third-round pick along with Vatanen and sent a 2018 third-round pick to Anaheim. Vatanen, who has a goal and three assists in 15 games this season, gives the Devils the offensive defencemen they were looking for. In Henrique, the Ducks get centre depth as they deal with injuries to Ryan Getzlaf and Ryan Kesler. The conditional pick is exchanged in 2019 if the Ducks sign Henrique prior to making their third-round pick at that draft and in 2020 if they sign him afterward.
