Luke Kunin Lands Two-Year Deal With Nashville
4 years agoNashville Predators forward Luke Kunin put pen to paper on a two-year, $4.6 million contract (average annual value $2.3 million) with his new team on Wednesday. Acquired in exchange for center Nick Bonino and a pair of draft picks from the Minnesota Wild on October 7, Kunin is expected to jump into a bigger role in the top-six of the Predators' forward group in 2020-2021. A former first-round draft pick in 2016, the 23-year-old is coming off a season in which he posted 31 points (15 goals, 16 assists) to go along with 128 shots and 64 hits in 63 games played in 2019-2020. While the Missouri native is likely not being taken in most fantasy drafts, owners should closely monitor Kunin's production in his new environment as he could provide value as a streaming option early on.
