The Minnesota Wild are trading the rights to forward Jack McBain to the Arizona Coyotes for a 2022 second-round pick, the team announced.

The draft pick originally belonged to the Vancouver Canucks. The Coyotes still have four second-rounders in the upcoming draft.

McBain was a third-round pick by the Wild in 2018. However, he didn't intend to sign an entry-level contract with the team and would've become an unrestricted free agent instead. He just finished his NCAA career at Boston College, where he produced 19 goals and 14 assists in 24 games during his senior year.

The 22-year-old also represented Canada at the 2022 Winter Olympics. He tallied a goal and an assist in four games at the tournament.

McBain, a natural center, stands at 6-foot-4 and 208 pounds. The rebuilding Coyotes can likely offer him a faster track to the NHL than most teams.
