Khusnutdinov has signed a two-year, $1.85 million deal to remain with the Bruins, the team announced Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Khusnutdinov was traded to the Bruins at the trade deadline from the Wild, and he turned more ice time into almost the same amount of production in way fewer games. He had five points in 18 games with Boston after posting only seven points in 57 games with Minnesota. The 22-year-old's new contract is a one-way deal, meaning it's safe to say that he is in the driver's seat to earning a spot in Boston's bottom six.

Khusnutdinov scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

Khusnutdinov earned a goal and an assist over the last two games of the season. The Bruins sent five players to AHL Providence on Wednesday, but Khusnutdinov was not among them, even though he is eligible for the AHL playoffs. The 22-year-old split 2024-25 between Boston and Minnesota, racking up five goals, seven assists, 41 shots on net, 55 hits, 47 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a minus-11 rating across 75 appearances.

Khusnutdinov notched an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

Khusnutdinov snapped a six-game point drought with the helper. The 22-year-old is maintaining a middle-six role for now, but his overall play since joining the Bruins has been more of the same from what he displayed with the Wild -- a little depth scoring and little else. He's at 10 points, 36 shots on net, 49 hits, 45 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a minus-9 rating through 68 appearances this season.

Khusnutdinov scored a goal Saturday in a 6-2 loss to Tampa Bay.

EDGE Analysis

He wired a wrist shot from the blue line. Khusnutdinov has a goal in back-to-back games for the Bruins after delivering seven points (two goals, five assists) in 57 games with the Wild. At this point, Khusnutdinov won't deliver fantasy value, but that may change in future seasons.

Khusnutdinov scored a goal and added two hits in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

Khusnutdinov saw 17:18 of ice time in the loss, his second-highest total in any game this season. The 22-year-old's high-energy playing style is already endearing him to a workmanlike Bruins team, and it's possible he sees top-six minutes in Boston that just simply weren't in consideration for him in Minnesota. For the season, he's at three goals, eight points, 31 shots on net, 44 hits, 40 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 60 appearances. Khusnutdinov will need to show a steadier scoring pace to be an option in most fantasy formats.

Khusnutdinov was called up from AHL Providence on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Khusnutdinov is expected to fill a bottom-six role for the rest of the season. The 22-year-old center was acquired from the Wild on Thursday, and while his tenure with that organization ended in the AHL, he's poised to be an NHL player again going forward.

Khusnutdinov was demoted to AHL Providence on Friday to make him eligible for the AHL playoffs, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Khusnutdinov will almost certainly be brought back up ahead of Saturday's clash with Tampa, though that fact that he has scored just once in his last 32 outings, along with three helpers, could make his demotion more long term. Still, with the Bruins having just acquired Khusnutdinov from the WIld on Thursday, the team will likely want to give him an extended look.

Khusnutdinov was recalled from the AHL on Friday, according to Kevin Paul Dupont of The Boston Globe.

EDGE Analysis

Khusnutdinov was sent to the minors by Minnesota on Saturday and then was dealt to the Bruins on Thursday as part of the Justin Brazeau trade. Khusnutdinov had only two goals and five assists in 57 appearances with the Wild this season. He likely will see fourth-line minutes at best, the rest of the season.

Khusnutdinov, Jakub Lauko and a 2026 sixth-round draft pick were acquired by Boston from Minnesota on Thursday in exchange for Justin Brazeau.

EDGE Analysis

Khusnutdinov has two goals and seven points in 57 appearances with Minnesota in 2024-25. He was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Saturday but didn't end up playing for the minor-league squad. Boston might summon Khusnutdinov back to the NHL to serve in a bottom-six capacity, but that hasn't been confirmed.

Khusnutdinov was sent to AHL Iowa on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Minnesota assigned Liam Ohgren to the minors and recalled David Jiricek. The roster shuffling occurred after the Wild acquired Gustav Nyquist from Nashville on Saturday. Khusnutdinov has two goals and seven points across 57 NHL outings in 2024-25.
