The Ottawa Senators traded veteran forward David Perron to the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday in exchange for a conditional fourth-round pick in the 2026 NHL Draft.
Perron, 37, registered 10 goals and 25 points in 49 games for the Senators this season. He is in the final year of a two-year, $8 million contract.
Perron has played for seven teams over his 19-year career, including a two-year stint with the Red Wings from 2022 to 2024. The veteran scored 41 goals and tallied 103 points in 158 games for the Wings before signing his current deal with Ottawa.
Across an impressive 1,223 career games, Perron has 329 goals and 480 assists with the St. Louis Blues, Edmonton Oilers, Pittsburgh Penguins, Anaheim Ducks and Vegas Golden Knights in addition to the Senators and Red Wings.
Ottawa made a deal earlier Thursday, adding forward Warren Foegele from the Los Angeles Kings in exchange for a second-round pick.
The Senators and Red Wings are both vying for a playoff spot in the highly competitive Atlantic Division. The Wings entered Thursday third in the division with 77 points, while Ottawa is six points behind the final Wild Card spot in the East with 67 points.
The NHL trade deadline is Friday at 3 p.m. ET.
