Sharks trade Mueller to Devils for 2 draft picks

The San Jose Sharks have traded defenseman Mirco Mueller and a fifth-round pick in 2017 to the New Jersey Devils for second- and fourth-round picks in this year's draft, the Sharks announced Saturday.

Mueller spent much of this season with the Sharks' AHL affiliate, the San Jose Barracuda, tallying two goals and 18 assists in 62 games. He was recalled to the Sharks for four games, recording two points.

The Sharks originally drafted Mueller 18th overall in 2013.
