July 17, 2021 - 7:41pm

Watch as Coyotes' GM Bill Armstrong discusses acquiring three draft selections from the Islanders in the Andrew Ladd trade, and how they needed to restock the shelves after not picking until the 4th round in 2020 NHL Entry Draft.

The New York Islanders are sending Andrew Ladd and three picks to the Coyotes so Arizona can take the winger’s contract.

TRADE: We have acquired forward Andrew Ladd, a 2021 2nd round pick, a 2022 conditional 2nd round pick, and a 2023 conditional 3rd round pick from the New York Islanders. https://t.co/YrfSSEOp9i

The picks include a 2021 second-rounder, a 2022 conditional second-rounder and a 2023 conditional third-rounder.

The conditions of the second-round selection state that the Coyotes would receive the better of the Islanders’ pair of second-round picks, according to The Athletic’s Arthur Staple.

Conditions on the 2022 2nd-rounder going to AZ in the Ladd deal: Coyotes get the better of the #Isles two 2022 2nds, either the #Isles own or Colorado's (from the Devon Toews trade).
