Nashville Predators forward Matt Duchene is set for unrestricted free agency after the team announced that it is buying out the final three years of his contract. Duchene's contract had an $8 million cap hit and he was due $20 million in actual salary over the next three seasons. The Predators will carry $2.56 million of dead cap space for Duchene in 2023-24 and he won't be off the books until after the 2028-29 campaign. This is the second major move from Nashville in a short space of time after Ryan Johansen was traded to Colorado on June 24. Duchene had an up-and-down time in Music City after arriving from Columbus as a free agent in 2019, but he was the team's leading goal-scorer last season with 22 markers and had 56 points in 71 games, which put him behind only Roman Josi.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
