The Carolina Hurricanes announced on Tuesday that goalie Anton Forsberg has been awarded a one-year, one-way contract for the 2019-20 season worth $775,000.
Since it’s a one-way deal, it means that Forsberg will not have a separate NHL and AHL salary. He will have one salary, and it’s $775,000 for the upcoming season. He will be waiver eligible this season, and he would have been regardless of if he got a one-way or two-way deal, as per the CBA. The Hurricanes were not allowed to walk away from the deal given the relatively low salary that was awarded to Forsberg.
