Ducks acquire Grant from Penguins for Blandisi

The Anaheim Ducks have acquired center Derek Grant from the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for center Joseph Blandisi, the team announced early Thursday morning.

Grant has appeared in 25 games with the Penguins this season, posting five points and a plus-3 rating over that span. Blandisi has spent the majority of the last two seasons in the AHL with the San Diego Gulls, scoring 13 goals with 28 helpers in 55 games at that level.

The move added to a busy night for the Ducks, as the club dealt Luke Schenn and a seventh-round pick to the Vancouver Canucks for Michael Del Zotto earlier on.
