In the post-season, Edmundson added one goal in four games for the ‘Canes, with his average ice-time jumping to 23:41. Edmundson won a Stanley Cup with the St. Louis Blues in 2018-19, posting seven points through 22 post-season tilts, while averaging 16:32 minutes per night.

The big-bodied Brandon, Man., native — who checks in at six-foot-four, 215 pounds — was originally drafted 46th overall by the Blues back in 2011, spending four seasons in St. Louis before being traded to the Hurricanes as part of the Justin Faulk deal last summer.
