The Nashville Predators traded former first-round pick Philip Tomasino to the Pittsburgh Penguins for a fourth-round pick on Monday, a move general manager Barry Trotz said had been in the works for some time.

The Pittsburgh Penguins acquired forward Philip Tomasino, a former first-round draft pick, from the Nashville Predators on Monday for a fourth-rounder in the 2027 NHL Draft. Tomasino, 23, has one assist in 11 games this season.

In 2022, the Predators waived forward Eeli Tolvanen, a 2017 first-round pick, who was picked up by the Seattle Kraken. Going back even further, Nashville traded 2014 first-round pick Kevin Fiala to the Minnesota Wild in 2019 and 2013 first-round pick Seth Jones to Columbus in 2016.
