Flames add blue-line depth, land Fantenberg from Kings

The Los Angeles Kings traded defenseman Oscar Fantenberg to the Calgary Flames on Monday for a conditional fourth-round pick in 2020.

The fourth-round pick will become a third-rounder if the Flames reach the conference final and Fantenberg plays in at least 50 percent of those postseason contests, according to Cap Friendly.

Fantenberg's tallied three points in 46 games this season while averaging just over 16 minutes per night. The Kings controlled 48.1 percent of shot attempts and 50 percent of scoring chances when he was on the ice, according to Natural Stat Trick.

Fantenberg, 27, carries a modest $650,000 cap hit and is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1.
