The Boston Bruins have acquired forward Pat Maroon from the Minnesota Wild, the teams announced Friday.
The Wild will receive forward Luke Toporowski and a conditional 2026 sixth-round pick in return. The pick will only be traded to Minnesota if Maroon appears in a playoff game with the Bruins.
Maroon has four goals and 16 points in 49 games this season with Minnesota.
The 35-year-old had back surgery on Feb. 7 and was scheduled to be out for four-to-six weeks.
He last played on Jan. 27 against the Anaheim Ducks.
Maroon was traded by the Tampa Bay Lightning to the Wild last off-season for a 2024 seventh-round pick.
