BUFFALO — The Buffalo Sabres have acquired goaltender Anders Lindback and a conditional third-round pick in the 2016 NHL Draft from the Dallas Stars in exchange for goaltender Jhonas Enroth, the team announced late this afternoon.
Lindback (6’6”, 215 lbs., 5/3/88) signed a one-year contract with Dallas in July 2013 and has appeared in 10 games with the club this season, registering a 2-8-0 record. The five-year NHL veteran has also played with the Tampa Bay Lightning (2012-13, 2013-14) and the Nashville Predators (2010-11, 2011-12) and owns a 36-43-8 career record with a .901 save percentage and 2.84 goals-against average.
A native of Gavle, Sweden, Lindback played six seasons in the Brynas IF (Sweden) system before being drafted by Nashville in the seventh round (207th overall) of the 2008 NHL Draft.
Earlier today, the Sabres traded defenseman Tyler Myers, forwards Drew Stafford and Joel Armia, the rights to prospect Brendan Lemieux, and one of the team's first-round draft pick in the 2015 NHL Draft to the Winnipeg Jets in exchange for forward Evander Kane, defenseman Zach Bogosian and goaltender Jason Kasdorf.
