DETROIT - The Detroit Red Wings today acquired defenseman Jeff Petry from the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for defenseman Gustav Lindstrom and a conditional fourth-round pick in the 2025 NHL Entry Draft. Montreal will retain 50 percent of remaining obligations pertaining to Petry's contract. Detroit will pay 37.5 percent of Petry's remaining contract.

Lindstrom and a 4th round pick. Pens retain $1.3 million, Canadiens and Red Wings pay $2.3 million each. Contract has 2 remaining years. Seems like a relatively even trade of a veteran presence for a young defensman.

      He’s going around in circles! Traded to Pens last July, then traded back to Canadiens again a couple weeks ago in the Karlsson trade. I guess there was a handshake agreement with Montreal that they would move him elsewhere.
