Report: Lightning flip Streit to Penguins for draft pick

The Tampa Bay Lightning have reportedly sent defenseman Mark Streit to the Pittsburgh Penguins shortly after acquiring him from the Philadelphia Flyers:

Tampa Bay will retain 50 percent of Streit's salary over the remainder of the season, LeBrun reports.

Streit spent the past four seasons with the Philadelphia Flyers, and had five goals and 16 assists in 49 games this season.

The 39-year-old, who brings added skill and depth to a banged-up Pittsburgh blue line, will become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season.
