Latest news
Hunt recorded an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Islanders.
Hunt played in his second game with the Predators since he was claimed off waivers. Nashville dressed seven defensemen to fit him into the lineup, though it's unclear if the 24-year-old will have a normal path to playing time if the team cuts down to a more traditional lineup. Hunt is likely competing with Nick Perbix and Jayden Struble for third-pairing minutes. Hunt has a helper, 10 shots, 13 blocked shots, eight hits, four PIM and a minus-3 rating over 13 outings between Nashville and Minnesota this season.

Hunt was claimed off waivers by Nashville from Minnesota on Saturday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.
Hunt will switch sides in the Central Division after the Predators stymied Minnesota's intended move to send him to AHL Iowa. The 24-year-old Hunt has seven hits and 11 blocked shots across 11 games this season. He hasn't found the scoresheet yet, but points have been hard to come by for him in the NHL. He has only seven assists in 56 career regular-season outings.

Hunt was put on waivers by Minnesota on Friday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Hunt has no points, four PIM, seven hits and 11 blocks in 11 appearances with the Wild in 2026-27. He will presumably be sent to AHL Iowa if he goes unclaimed on waivers.
RotoWire via ESPN · Oct 23
Hunt signed a one-year, $900,000 contract with Minnesota on Sunday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Hunt contributed six assists, 19 shots on net, 43 blocked shots and 21 hits in 32 regular-season appearances with Minnesota in 2025-26. He will be in the mix for a depth role with the big club during training camp.

Hunt registered an assist in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche in Game 2.
Hunt's helper was his first career playoff point, coming in his second appearance. The 23-year-old defenseman is filling in for Jonas Brodin (lower body) on the left side of the Wild's blue line, though the team is leaning heavily on what's left of its top four. Hunt picked up six assists, 43 blocked shots, 21 hits and 19 shots on net over 32 regular-season outings.
RotoWire via ESPN · May 6
Hunt notched an assist and three shots on goal in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Blues.
Hunt got into a top-four role with power-play time since the Wild had four regulars on the blue line out of the lineup for either rest or injury management. Hunt can be penciled in to play again Tuesday versus the Ducks in the regular-season finale, but the 23-year-old is unlikely to see much action in the playoffs. He has earned six helpers, 19 shots on net, 21 hits and 41 blocked shots over 31 outings this season.
