TRADE: Walman is leaving Detroit Red Wings for nothing!
Jake Walman was traded to the San Jose Sharks by the Detroit Red Wings for future considerations on Tuesday. The 28-year-old defenseman recorded 21 points (12 goals, nine assists) in 63 games for the Red Wings this season, averaging 19:46 of ice time per game.
As part of the trade, the Sharks also received a second-round pick in the 2024 NHL Draft, originally belonging to the Tampa Bay Lightning. Detroit acquired that pick earlier in the day by trading defenseman Andrew Gibson to the Nashville Predators for forward Jesse Kiiskinen.
Walman has two seasons remaining on his three-year contract, which carries a $3.4 million average annual value and was signed with Detroit on February 28, 2023. Originally a third-round pick (No. 82) by the St. Louis Blues in the 2014 NHL Draft, Walman has totaled 51 points (25 goals, 26 assists) in 202 regular-season games with the Red Wings and Blues, and has played in one Stanley Cup Playoff game without recording a point.
