Impact Brind'Amour nearly doubled his output for the season with this four-point game. He's at five goals, four assists, 29 shots on net and a minus-5 rating over 17 appearances. The 26-year-old is on pace to surpass his 24-point performance from 68 regular-season games a year ago, but he's unlikely to be near the top of the list for the Hurricanes whenever they need a forward call-up.

The 26-year-old center put up decent numbers in 2024-25 with the Wolves, generating 16 goals and eight assists in 68 regular-season tilts. Still, he'll need to be better than that this season if he wants to force his way onto the Hurricanes' roster.

The left-shot forward also recorded 16 goals, 24 points and a minus-14 rating over 68 regular-season appearances with AHL Chicago. Carolina has a deep forward group, and considering Brind'Amour's new deal is a two-way contract, he's likely to spend the whole campaign with the Wolves unless multiple injuries open up a spot with the big club.

Impact After spending most of camp with the Hurricanes on a PTO, he signed a one-year, two-way contract with the team Sunday.

Impact Brind'Amour was on a professional tryout during training camp and has turned it into his first NHL-level deal. That said, he is likely to spend much of 2024-25 with AHL Chicago. Brind'Amour produced just eight points in 54 regular-season games with AHL Charlotte a year ago, which is a clear signal his offense is not strong enough yet to be an NHL regular. Look for Brind'Amour to be reassigned to the minors prior to the start of the regular season.
