The initial trade reportedly fell apart at the trade deadline after Markstrom agreed to waive his no-movement clause. Travis Yost has reported today that the two teams have now agreed on terms of trade that will see the 34-year-old join former Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe in New Jersey. Daily FaceOff's Frank Seravalli confirmed Yost's initial findings.
Markstrom has two years left on his current deal that carries a $6M cap hit and solidifies New Jersey's goaltending position as Markstrom will work with Jake Allen.
The return for Calgary will be defenseman Kevin Bahl and a 2025 1st round draft pick.
