The Carolina Hurricanes were very busy on the first day of free agency.
First, they extended Logan Stankoven for another eight years, after this coming season. The payout will be a total of $48 million.
The team also made a couple of minor signings but the big acquisition was K’Andre Miller.
After the Rangers signed free agent defenseman, Vladislav Gavrikov, the Hurricanes saw an opportunity.
They gave up a lot, a conditional first round pick, a second rounder, and Scott Morrow. They agreed to the payout amount of $60 million over eight years, ($7.5 million AAV).
