Eyssimont, two first-round picks (2026, 2027) and a 2025 second-round selection were acquired by Seattle from Tampa Bay on Wednesday in exchange for Yanni Gourde, Oliver Bjorkstrand and a 2026 fifth-round pick, per Pierre LeBrun of TSN.

EDGE Analysis

Eyssimont has five goals, 10 points, 44 PIM and 82 hits over 57 appearances with the Lightning in 2024-25. This change of scenery probably won't change the fact that he primarily gets work on the fourth line. The 28-year-old is in the second season of his two-year, $1.6 million contract.
