The Pittsburgh Penguins have acquired forward Patrick Marleau from the San Jose Sharks, the team announced.
San Jose is receiving a conditional third-round pick that becomes a second-rounder if Pittsburgh wins the Stanley Cup this season, according to TSN's Pierre LeBrun.
Marleau signed a one-year, $700,000 deal with the Sharks in October and is set to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of this season. San Jose is reportedly willing to sign the veteran again on July 1.
The 40-year-old has contributed 10 goals and 20 points through 58 games in 2019-20, his 22nd NHL season.
