The Devils have traded for San Jose Sharks right wing Timo Meier, according to reports Sunday, including Pierre LeBrun of TSN and The Athletic.
Meier, 26, has 52 points on 31 goals and 21 assists in 57 games as a seventh-year pro on the 2022-23 NHL season.
The Sharks signed Meier to a four-year, $24 million contract on July 1, 2019.
“There is no Meier contract extension as part of this,” LeBrun said. “The Devils became comfortable doing the trade without having him signed to an extension as part of it.”
In 451 games with the Sharks from 2016-23, Meier totaled 316 points on 154 goals and 162 assists.
Meier, from Switzerland, was the 2015 NHL Draft’s No. 9 overall pick.
