RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — The Carolina Hurricanes have signed defenseman Haydn Fleury to a two-year contract.
The team announced the deal Tuesday night, saying the restricted free agent’s deal had an average annual value of $1.3 million.
In a statement, team president and general manager Don Waddell said Fleury made “a huge leap in his development” last season and became a dependable contributor both late in the regular season as well as the playoffs.
Fleury had four goals and 10 assists in 45 games. He was a first-round pick by the Hurricanes in the 2014 draft at seventh overall.
