The New Jersey Devils trade goaltender Rémi Poirier to the Washington Capitals on Sunday for Washington’s own seventh-round pick in the 2027 NHL Draft, the team announced. General manager Sunny Mehta made the deal.

Poirier, 25, joined the Devils off waivers from the Dallas Stars on Sept. 27 and did not appear in a game for New Jersey. Dallas drafted him in the sixth round in 2020, 185th overall. Last season he went 27-19-6 with a 2.61 goals-against average and a .912 save percentage in 52 games for the Texas Stars of the AHL. He has not played in an NHL regular-season game.
