2021 Hurricanes Miscellaneous Thread

One wrinkle on this is that technically Warm would be exempt from exposure in the expansion draft as this is his first NHL contract. However its pretty clear that both sides worked this out specifically to allow the Canes to have a goalie to expose per the expansion draft rules.

Again, congrats to this kid, he is getting paid '$50k' no matter what and has himself locked into a contract for another season at Chicago as well.

Only starter guy Canes lost in expansion draft was in 99 Trevor Kidd. He ended up in Florida and his career was pretty much over few years later.

It depends on how you define “starter”. Kidd went to the Flames in the expansion draft and they traded him to Florida for 3 players and a pick. Jeff Daniels was lost to Nashville in 1998. In the 2000 draft, the Canes lost Robert Kron to Columbus and Curtis Leschyshyn to Minnesota. Kron had 13 goals, 27 assists his last year with the Canes. Lespellcheck was a defensive dman who had 2 assists and was -19 in 53 games.
