Kuokkanen, 23, was acquired at the trade deadline in 2020 in the deal that sent Sami Vatanen to Carolina. He had eight goals and 17 assists in 50 games for the Devils last season.

Kuokkanen was the final restricted free agent on the Devils’ NHL roster. The Devils have one remaining RFA in the organization, minor league goaltender Gilles Senn.
