The San Jose Sharks have acquired forward Tye McGinn from the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for a third-round selection in the 2015 NHL Draft.

"Tye is a hardworking player who plays an honest game," said Sharks general manager Doug Wilson. "We're excited to add him to our group of young forwards."

McGinn, 23, scored four goals and one assist in 18 games with the Flyers in 2013-14.

Originally drafted by the Flyers in the fourth round (119th overall) of the 2010 NHL Entry Draft, McGinn has recorded seven goals and three assists in 36 career NHL games with Philadelphia.
