Predators add Nick Cousins on 2-year, $3M deal

The Nashville Predators signed forward Nick Cousins to a two-year deal worth $3 million, the team announced Saturday.

Cousins, 27, inked a one-year pact with the Canadiens last offseason, but Montreal dealt him to the Vegas Golden Knights at the trade deadline in February.

The 5-foot-11 winger tallied 10 goals and 25 points in 65 games between the two clubs last season. He added five assists in 17 playoff games with the Golden Knights.

Nashville also signed blue-liners Mark Borowiecki and Matt Benning to two-year deals earlier Friday.
