The Carolina Hurricanes made another big move on NHL trade deadline day by acquiring center Evgeny Kuznetsov from the Washington Capitals, according to a person familiar with the move.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Friday because the trade call had not been completed.
The Hurricanes got scoring winger Jake Guentzel from Pittsburgh in a blockbuster deal late Thursday night.
Kuznetsov, 31, cleared waivers last weekend upon being able to practice after receiving care from the player assistance program.
