In a shocking turn of events today, the Carolina Hurricanes have acquired forward Evgeny Kuznetzov from the Washington Capitals.
Only a few years removed from a 77-point season, Kuznetzov's career has taken a tumble due to serious off-ice issues. He was placed on waivers last week following clearance from the NHLPA players assistance program.
Pending trading call, Evgeni Kuznetsov is being traded to the Carolina Hurricanes for a 2025 third-round pick.
Washington is retaining 50 percent on Kuznetsov (one more year next season at a $7.8 M AAV)
