While we are still waiting for the final details and official confirmation of the trade sending Pierre-Luc Dubois to the Los Angeles Kings, a fourth player involved in the trade has just been revealed.

"Expect Jansen Harkins to be traded to Los Angeles if the Kings and Jets confirm the Pierre-Luc Dubois trade." - Via Ken Wiebe

Recall of what we know about the major transaction.

"In Winnipeg: Alex Iafallo and Gabe Vilardi

In Los Angeles: Pierre-Luc Dubois and Jansen Harkins."

There may be other elements involved. We also recall that they are at the stage where Dubois must agree on a contract extension with the Kings.

Vilardi, 23, is a 6 foot 3 inch, 215 pound center from Ontario. He racked up a very solid 41 points (23 goals) in 63 games this season with the Kings. He is a restricted free agent this summer and he was drafted 11th overall in 2017, just ahead of Nick Suzuki (13th).

As for Iafallo, he is a 29-year-old winger. He scored 36 points in 59 games during the 2022-23 season. (pace of 50 points per full season) He is signed until 2025, at $4 million per year.

Finally, Harkins, 26 years old, was a 47th overall pick (2nd round) in 2015. He racked up a very solid 50 points in just 44 games this season in the American Hockey League (and 27 career points in the NHL).

Stay tuned!
