The New York Rangers acquired defenseman Chad Ruhwedel from the Pittsburgh Penguins on Friday for a fourth-round pick in the 2027 NHL Draft.
Ruhwedel, 33, had one goal and three assists in 47 games with the Penguins this season.
Ruhwedel began his career with the Buffalo Sabres, signing as an undrafted free agent in April 2013, and he played there until signing with the Penguins before the 2016-17 season. He won the Stanley Cup with Pittsburgh that season.
He has appeared in 359 regular-season games between the Penguins and Buffalo Sabres, recording 49 points (13 goals, 36 assists).
With the trade, the Penguins now have eight picks in the 2027 draft.
