The Arizona Coyotes have added another talented young defenseman to the pipeline.
General manager John Chayka has traded the 37th overall pick at the 2016 NHL Draft to the Tampa Bay Lightning for defenseman Anthony DeAngelo, the 19th overall pick in 2014.
The move comes the morning after the Coyotes traded up in the first round to select Jakob Chychrun, taking on Pavel Datsyuk's contract from the Detroit Red Wings in the process.
DeAngelo and Chychrun, as it turns out, were OHL teammates with the Sarnia Sting during part of the 2014-15 season.
DeAngelo, 20, recorded six goals and 37 assists in 69 games for the AHL's Syracuse Crunch last season, his first as a pro.
The Lightning used the 37th pick to select defenseman Libor Hajek from the WHL's Saskatoon Blades.
