NASHVILLE -- The Nashville Predators have swapped defencemen with the New York Rangers, sending right-handed shooter Kevin Klein to New York in exchange for a lefty in Michael Del Zotto. Martavis Bryant Steelers Jersey . The Predators announced the trade Wednesday before heading to Vancouver for a four-game road swing. "Michael gives us another young, gifted left-handed shooting defenceman with significant offensive upside," Predators general manager David Poile Poile said in a statement. "We look forward to his presence on our already talented young blue line, further balancing our defensive corps." Del Zotto, 23, has 11 points in 42 games for the Rangers averaging 17 minutes, 44 seconds of ice time per game. The 6-foot, 195-pound Del Zotto was the 20th overall choice by the Rangers in the 2008 draft, and he has 121 career points in 292 career NHL games. But Del Zotto never seemed to fully fit since coach Alain Vigneault replaced the fired John Tortorella after last season. Del Zotto was a healthy scratch from Vigneaults lineup for nine games, but was back in for the 10 games before Wednesdays deal. Del Zotto, who can become a restricted free agent this summer, carries a $2.55 million salary cap charge this season. Klein was one of four right-handed shooting defencemen in Nashville and something the Rangers have wanted. Del Zotto is a lefty shooter. Adding Klein and removing Del Zotto will allow John Moore to move to the left side for the Rangers. Klein, 29, was the 37th choice overall in 2003 by Nashville and has played 403 games in nine NHL seasons. He has three points in 47 games this season and ranks 22nd in the NHL with 94 blocked shots. Klein also is under contract through 2017-18 after signing a five-year, $14.5 million deal in September 2012 giving him a $2.9 million salary cap hit each season. "Thanks everyone!," Klein wrote on Twitter. "Going to miss the friends I have made in Nashville. But a new chapter in New York." Shamarko Thomas Steelers Jersey .
