The Ducks have acquired Sonny Milano from the Blue Jackets for Devin Shore.

The Blue Jackets made Milano the 16th overall pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft. The 23-year-old forward struggled to maintain a spot in the lineup under head coach John Tortorella. He scored five goals and added 13 assists in 46 games for Columbus this season. Milano is set to become a restricted free-agent on July 1st.

Milano (upper-body) will not play on Monday.

Milano was hurt early in Saturday's game in Ottawa. He stumbled along the side-boards and it resulted in him taking an ugly hit from Mark Borowiecki. The Blue Jackets' medical staff had to help Milano off of the ice and it looks as if he could miss some time. Marko Dano was called up on Sunday and will replace Dano in the lineup on Monday.

The Blue Jackets are expected to assign Sonny Milano to Cleveland (AHL).

Milano, who was the No. 16 overall pick in 2014, has had an average first quarter of the season, collecting five goals and five assists (10 points) in 24 games this season. He’ll return to Cleveland but will likely be the first forward recalled in the future. Milano had 47 points (18G / 29A) in 54 AHL games last season.
