The Toronto Maple Leafs have traded Phil Kessel to the Pittsburgh Penguins.

In return Toronto gets centre Nick Spaling, forward Kasperi Kapanen, defenceman Scott Harrington, plus first- and third-round picks from 2016.

The Leafs are also sending forward Tyler Biggs, defenceman Tim Erixon and 2016 second-round pick to Pittsburgh.

The Penguins had been pursuing Kessel for the past week. Toronto will retain $1.2 million of Kessel’s salary in each of the next seven seasons.

The 27-year-old is entering the second year of an eight-year contract that carries an average cap hit of $8 million per season. Kessel, who has exceeded the 30-goal mark in four of the last six seasons, registered 25 goals, 36 assists with a minus-34 rating in 82 games for Toronto this past season.
