Marko Dano won't have to wait long to debut with his new team.
The 21-year-old prospect was recalled by the Winnipeg Jets on Friday, and he'll join the team in Pittsburgh ahead of Saturday's game against the Penguins.
He was traded by the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday - along with a 2016 first-round pick and a 2018 conditional pick - for forwards Andrew Ladd and Matt Fraser, and defenseman Jay Harrison.
It was the second time Dano has been traded in the last seven months. He was dealt to the Blackhawks by the Columbus Blue Jackets in the Brandon Saad swap last June.
Dano registered 23 points in 34 games with the AHL's Rockford IceHogs this season.
The Blue Jackets selected him 27th overall in 2013.
