<\/a><\/p>\n

Luke Kunin is one of the top unrestricted free agent (UFA) forwards who are still looking for their new home. When noting that he is a hard-nosed forward who can play both down the middle and on the wing, it seems like only a matter of time before he gets signed.<\/p>\n

Because of this, let’s go over three teams who could look to sign Kunin before the season is here.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Utah Mammoth<\/p>\n

The Mammoth could be a team that targets Kunin this off-season. It is no secret that one of their goals is to be a tougher team to play against, and bringing in Kunin would help things on that front. When looking at their roster, he could be a nice fit on their fourth line and would also offer them another option for their penalty kill.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chicago Blackhawks\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Blackhawks have plenty of cap space to work with, so they could be a team to watch when it comes to Kunin. When looking at their group, there is no question that their bottom six could use some improvement, so signing Kunin to a short-term deal could make a lot of sense for them.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Anaheim Ducks\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Ducks have had a busy off-season, but it is fair to say that they could still use another bottom-six forward as they look to take that next step. Thus, they could be a team to keep an eye on when it comes to Kunin. He would upgrade their fourth line, whether he plays down the middle or on the wing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
