After losing out on Jarome Iginla last week, the Boston Bruins have landed a different veteran right wing likely bound for the Hall of Fame in a trade Tuesday.

The Dallas Stars have traded 41-year-old Jaromir Jagr to the Bruins in exchange for a conditional second-round pick in the 2013 NHL Draft and two prospects.

The conditional second-round pick becomes a first-round selection if Boston advances to the Eastern Conference Finals in this year's Stanley Cup Playoffs.

"Jaromir Jagr produced as a consistent scorer for our team all year and we would like to thank him for his contributions to our hockey club," Dallas Stars general manager Joe Nieuwendyk said. "With our eye to the future, we have acquired some valuable assets that we believe strengthen our organization."

Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli said he believed he had a deal in place to acquire Iginla from the Calgary Flames on Thursday, but the trade never happened and Iginla was sent to the Pittsburgh Penguins instead.

In 34 games this season, Jagr, 41, leads the Stars with 14 goals and 26 points. He has 679 goals and 1,000 assists in 1,380 career games.

The prospects headed to Dallas are forwards Lane MacDermid and Cody Payne. MacDermid, 23, has played eight games with the Bruins over the past two seasons and has not registered a point. He has four goals, two assists and 82 penalty minutes in 37 games with Providence of the American Hockey League.

Payne, 19, was the Bruins' fifth-round pick in the 2012 draft. In 66 games with the Plymouth Whalers of the Ontario Hockey League, he had 24 goals and 45 points.

@Polaris922 Lane McDermid is a former Spitfire, saw his whole career here. He's a typical 4th liner, works real hard, has the heart of a lion, unfortunatley, he can't skate worth a lick...a shame cause he works so hard. He's Paul McDermid's son, who was also a Spitfire....he played on a line with Claude Loiselle....made me feel so old to see a guy I watched and admired like Paul have a son play for us so many years later!
