Dunne signed a one-year, $850,000 contract with the Capitals on Wednesday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Dunne will compete for a bottom-six role with the Capitals during training camp. The 27-year-old forward's contract is a one-way deal, which gives him some financial security even if he ends up getting waived prior to the start of the campaign. With the Sabres last year, he produced just four points, along with 29 shots on net, 38 PIM and 40 hits, over 34 regular-season contests.

2025 Fantasy Outlook
Dunne played two games with the Sabres last year, bringing his career NHL games count up to 16. The 26-year-old spent the majority of the season with AHL Rochester and was an alternate captain, chipping in 13 goals and 23 assists in 76 games. At his age, the chance at being an NHL regular has likely passed, though he remains in the mix as a spot call-up option that doesn’t boast a lofty offensive ceiling but can throw his body around on the fourth line.
