Ducks sign Lundestrom to 2-year deal with reported $1.8M AAV

The Anaheim Ducks avoided arbitration with restricted free-agent forward Isac Lundestrom, signing him to a two-year deal on Monday.

The pact carries an average annual value of $1.8 million, according to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.

Lundestrom's salary arbitration hearing was scheduled for July 27. He'll still be a restricted free agent after this pact expires.

The Swede recorded a career-high 16 goals and 13 assists in 80 contests in 2021-22 while averaging 15:29 per game.

A first-round pick by Anaheim in the 2018 draft, Lundestrom has 44 points in 151 career contests.

The Ducks have now signed all of their restricted free agents and have almost $26 million in projected cap space, according to CapFriendly.
