A solid decision by Kent Hughes.
Heineman, 21 years old, was a 2nd round pick by the Panthers in 2020. He has accumulated 15 points (8 goals) in 35 games this season in Sweden's top league.
He was acquired from the Calgary Flames in the Tyler Toffoli trade.
This will certainly be a greatly appreciated acquisition by the Rocket, who have already sent several players to the Montreal Canadiens.
More details to follow.
