Just moments after the Leafs and Penguins announced a trade we have another one. We reported earlier today that this deal seemed all but done, and now it's official. The Winnipeg Jets and Carolina Hurricanes have announced that they have come to terms on a deal that will send Jiri Tlusty to Winnipeg in exchange the Carolina Hurricanes have  acquired a third-round selection in the 2016 NHL Draft and either a fifth- or sixth-round pick in the 2015 NHL Draft. The conditional draft pick is based on whether or not the Jets will make the post season, a 5th rounder if they get in, or a 6th rounder if they fail to make the playoffs. The only player in the trade is 26 year old Jiri Tlusty, and his acquisition makes it clear that Winnipeg intends to make a run at this years playoffs. Tlusty has 13 goals and 10 assists for a total of 23 points in 52 games with Carolina this season. He is an ugly -17 on the season, but has played for one of the weaker teams in the NHL so that number is likely skewed a little.
