The Edmonton Oilers traded defenceman Spencer Stastney to the Pittsburgh Penguins for centre Filip Hallander on Wednesday. The move aims to bolster the Oilers' forward line due to multiple injuries, including those affecting Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Zach Hyman. Hallander, a 26-year-old Swedish player, has played two games with Pittsburgh this season, contributing one goal and two assists; he was drafted by the Penguins in 2018 as their second-round pick (27th overall). Stastney, who had not appeared in any games for Edmonton this season, is a 26-year-old from Illinois who previously played for Nashville before joining the Oilers last month.
