The New York Rangers have dealt defenseman Adam McQuaid to the Columbus Blue Jackets, the team announced.

Columbus is sending a fourth-round pick and a seventh-round selection to the Rangers as well as blue-liner Julius Bergman.

McQuaid is a pending unrestricted free agent carrying a $2.75-million cap hit, according to CapFriendly.

The 32-year-old managed five points in 36 games with the Rangers this season. New York acquired him from the Boston Bruins last September.
