The Pittsburgh Penguins and St. Louis Blues have hooked up on a small, one for one trade today while the NHL is on break for the 4 Nations Face-Off.
The Penguins acquired forward Mathias Laferriere from the Blues in exchange for forward Corey Andonovski.
Both players are in their mid-20s and are depth options at the AHL level. The 24 year old Laferriere has two goals and 10 points in 33 games with the AHL's Springfield Thunderbirds and will report to the Penguins' AHL affiliate in Wilkes-Barre.
Similarly, Andonovski is a 25 year old forward with just three goals and five points in 27 games with the AHL's Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins this season. He'll be assigned to the Blues' AHL affiliate in Springfield.
