Avalanche sign Brad Hunt to 2-year contract

The Colorado Avalanche signed depth defenseman Brad Hunt to a two-year contract, the team announced Friday.

Financial terms were not disclosed.

Hunt spent last season with the Vancouver Canucks, where he racked up 17 points in 50 games while averaging 15 minutes per night.

The undrafted 33-year-old also had stints with the Edmonton Oilers, St. Louis Blues, Nashville Predators, Vegas Golden Knights, and Minnesota Wild over his career.

Colorado boasts one of the league's deepest blue lines, headlined by the likes of Cale Makar, Devon Toews, Josh Manson, and Bowen Byram. The Avalanche had approximately $3.9 million in cap space before signing Hunt, according to Cap Friendly.
