Penguins trade Samuelsson to Coyotes for Klinkhammer

The Arizona Coyotes and the Pittsburgh Penguins swapped depth players Friday.

The Coyotes acquired defenseman Philip Samuelsson from Pittsburgh for forward Rob Klinkhammer and a conditional fifth-round pick in 2016.

Klinkhammer scored a career-high 11 goals last season and recorded three goals in 19 games with Arizona this season.

Samuelsson is a 23-year-old blue-liner with five games of NHL experience.
