Tampa Bay sent Morand to the Sharks in exchange for Alexei Melnichuk on Monday.
Morand was a second-round pick in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft. The 23-year-old has yet to see any playing time at the NHL level. He's expected to report to AHL San Jose.

Lightning's Antoine Morand: Acquired by Lightning
Rotowire
Morand was traded from the Ducks to the Lightning in exchange for Alexander Volkov on Wednesday.
The Lightning also gained a seventh-round pick in 2023 in the deal. Morand, 22, has a goal and five assists in 21 games for AHL San Diego this year. The Quebec native is expected to report to AHL Syracuse, although he may need to complete a quarantine before joining his new squad. A second-round pick from 2017, Morand probably won't compete for a roster spot with the big club for another couple of years.
