With Alex Goligoski's severely sprained knee making him the third defenseman on the shelf, the Pittsburgh Penguins decided to shake up their defensive core by sending aging d-man Darryl Sydor to Dallas in exchange for Phillipe Boucher.

Boucher has been particularly solid thus far this season, tallying 11 points (3G-8A) and a +2 rating in 19 games while averaging just under 16 minutes per game.

The former all-star has posted 30+ points in three of his last six seasons, with his career high of 51 points (19G-32A) coming in the 2006-07 campaign.

The Penguins will look to Boucher to fill the void left by Goligoski, the blue line's leading scorer. Boucher will assume Goligoski's spot alongside Brooks Orpik for his first game, coming against the New York Islanders on November 26.
