The San Jose Sharks have acquired Erik Karlsson from the Ottawa Senators in exchange for forward Chris Tierney, defenseman Dylan DeMelo, forward Francis Perron, prospects Josh Norris and Rudolfs Balcers, a conditional 2020 first-round pick, and a conditional 2019 second-round pick.
Karlsson’s move from Ottawa had been rumored for months and increased the interest after contract extension talks broke down.
