The Tampa Bay Lightning acquired defenseman Matt Dumba and a seventh-round pick in the 2025 NHL Draft from the Arizona Coyotes on Friday for a fifth-round selection in 2027, TSN reported Friday.

Dumba, 29, has 10 points (four goals, six assists) in 58 games this season, his first with Arizona. He signed a one-year, $3.9 million last summer and will be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season.

Dumba has totaled 246 points (83 goals, 163 assists) in 656 career games with the Minnesota Wild (2013-23) and Coyotes. He was selected by the Wild with the seventh overall pick of the 2012 NHL Draft.
