Oilers & Penguins Complete Intriguing 1-for-1 Trade
The Pittsburgh Penguins and Edmonton Oilers have made a one-for-one trade during the early stages of the 2026-27 season.
The Edmonton Oilers and Pittsburgh Penguins have completed a trade involving defenseman Spencer Stastney and forward Filip Hallander in an intriguing one-for-one exchange. Both players found themselves on the wrong side of their respective roster battles, prompting the trade to give them new opportunities.
Stastney, who had not played an NHL game this season, is expected to bolster Pittsburgh's blueline depth and potentially compete for a spot on their bottom pairing. Meanwhile, Hallander brings added flexibility to Edmonton's bottom six, providing much-needed stability amid their current injury woes.
Stastney's NHL career includes two goals and 10 points in 66 games with the Predators and Oilers last season, while Hallander contributed one goal and three points in two games with Pittsburgh this season.
