Welcome to the Canes, Tarmo!https://t.co/VbeCe4Vxlf
Letunov is 26 years old and he had signed with the Hurricanes last summer. This season, he scored 13 goals and 23 points in 60 AHL games with the Chicago Wolves.
Even though it’s after the trade deadline, teams can still complete trades, the players included just won’t be eligible for the playoffs. Given that it’s a pretty minor deal, that won’t be an issue for either team.
