The Pittsburgh Penguins announced today that they have acquired F Philip Tomasino from the Nashville Predators in exchange for a 2027 fourth-round pick.
Tomasino, 23, is a former first-round pick of the Preds, being selected 24th overall in 2019.
Tomasino has one assist in 11 games so far this season, and 23 goals and 71 points in 159 career NHL games, all with the Predators.
Tomasino is a versatile forward who can play all three forward positions. He is talented, but lacking the speed that most young players have.
The Mississauga, Ontario native played in 190 OHL games with the Niagara Ice Dogs and Oshawa Generals, putting up 79 goals and 196 points. He has also played 89 AHL games with the Chicago Wolves and Milwaukee Admirals, putting up 36 goals and 82 points.
