The Buffalo Sabres have traded defenseman Nathan Beaulieu to the Winnipeg Jets for a sixth-round draft pick, the team announced Monday.
Beaulieu carries a $2.4-million cap hit in the final season of a two-year contract before becoming a restricted free agent this summer. He's notched seven points while averaging 14:42 per contests in 30 games this season.
The 26-year-old blue-liner is one of several additions the Jets made Monday, along with Kevin Hayes, Matt Hendricks, Par Lindholm, and Bogdan Kiselevich.
