The Carolina Hurricanes are preparing for the NHL draft, which begins on Friday night. The team has four picks in this year’s draft.
The Hurricanes’ existing roster is not expected to be heavily poached this year, with only two players on the playoff roster being unrestricted free agents, including goaltender Freddy Andersen. Several players, including Sebastian Aho, Seth Jarvis, and Jackson Blake, are under contract into the 2030s.
Eric Tulsky, the Hurricanes’ General Manager, believes this puts the team in a good position for another push towards the Stanley Cup. The Hurricanes will begin their preseason on September 20 against the Florida Panthers.
