The New York Rangers have traded defenseman Dylan McIlrath to the Florida Panthers for fellow blue-liner Steven Kampfer and a conditional seventh-round pick, the clubs confirmed Tuesday.
The condition on the deal requires McIlrath to play 30 games this season for the Rangers to get the pick, according to Sportsnet's Chris Johnston.
McIlrath has played in only one of the Rangers' first 13 games, appearing in four AHL contests for the Hartford Wolf Pack. New York signed him to a one-year extension in July.
He's spent his entire six-year career in the Rangers organization after being drafted 10th overall by the club in 2010.
Kampfer only appeared in a single game for his team this season before Tuesday's deal. He was in his third campaign with the Panthers after stints with the Minnesota Wild and the Boston Bruins.
He thanked the Panthers organization and expressed his excitement about joining the Rangers in a pair of post-trade tweets.
