Joel Edmundson was traded to Carolina along with prospect Dominik Bokk in exchange for Justin Faulk. Faulk would then sign a seven-year extension worth $45.5 million.
Fantasy Impact
Faulk is one of the better goal-scoring defensemen in the NHL. He has six straight seasons of 30+ points but only one (2014-15 with 49). Faulk is not currently on the top-level of fantasy defensemen but he is a good option who should be owned in the vast majority of leagues.
