Carolina Hurricanes: Breaking Down William’s New Contract

Phew. We can all breath easy now. The last, very much needed, part of the Carolina Hurricanes is now finally back with the team. Justin Williams signed a one year (half year?) contract with the Hurricanes who were pretty much backed up against the cap ceiling. But just how did they get the money to work? Where does that leave the Hurricanes moving forward in the season?
