SESTITO TO NEW JERSEY

The New Jersey Devils acquired winger Tim Sestito from the Edmonton Oilers for a conditional draft pick.

What does it give the New Jersey Devils
Sestito, a New York State native, may get the opportunity to play close to home in 2009-10. He's a spark-plug type with the capability of dropping the gloves. He'll compete for a spot on the fourth line in camp.

What does it give the Edmonton Oilers
The Oilers had an abundance of wingers, especially bottom-six forwards that were stuck at the AHL level. Therefore, they moved Sestito to the Devils for a conditional draft pick. This was merely housekeeping.
