Kevin Stenlund’s next NHL game will be his 69th career game! Nice.
When it comes to Stenlund, he seems to be a guy who does what you want on the ice but never really gets the opportunity to stick for the Columbus Blue Jackets. Since entering the league in 2018-19 he’s never played more than 32 NHL games in a season. Then he plays and seems to find his way onto the scoresheet or doing something productive.

Contract Status
His previous AAV was $925,000 with a cap hit $864,166. But then yesterday the RFA came to a contract for the upcoming season! Also could Stenlund be left unexposed for the upcoming Seattle Kraken expansion draft? Now that he’s signed for 2021-22 and he is among the forwards that played at least 27 games last season, he fits the criteria for exposure.
#CBJ have signed C Kevin Stenlund to a one-year, one-way contract worth $1.05 million.
