It was a quiet draft day with regards to transactions, until it wasn't.
The Montreal Canadiens have acquired forward Josh Anderson from the Columbus Blue Jackets in exchange for Max Domi and a 2020 third-round pick, it was announced Tuesday afternoon.
Anderson was a fourth-round pick (95th overall) by the Blue Jackets at the 2012 NHL Draft.
In 267 career NHL games, Anderson has 65 goals and 115 points.
TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun adds that Montreal remains interested in veteran forward Wayne Simmonds, who is slated to become an unrestricted free agent later this week.
