Dmitry Kulikov News
The Penguins have acquired Dmitry Kulikov from the Ducks for Brock McGinn and a 3rd Round Pick.

Kulikov's numbers took an expected dip in Anaheim this season, as he's been relied on to eat heavy minutes on one of the worst teams in the NHL. He registered three goals and 12 assists and was a minus 15 in 61 games for the Ducks this season. Kulikov will welcome the change of scenery, and he's been a useful defenseman for more competitive teams in the past. He picked up 24 points and was a plus 23 for the Wild last season.

The Devils have signed Dmitry Kulikov to a one-year deal worth $1.15 million.

Kulikov had two goals and eight assists (10 points) in 51 game with the Jets last season. Kulikov topped 100 huts for the sixth time in his 11-year career and will bring a physical element to the Devils blueline. His one-year deal buys Ty Smith an extra year of development before he likely becomes a full-time NHLer in 2022.
