Hurricanes' Jaccob Slavin: Locked up for eight years
Slavin signed an eight-year, $51.69 million contract extension with the Hurricanes on Monday.
Slavin had six goals, 37 points, a plus-21 rating, 55 hits and 120 blocked shots in 81 regular-season appearances in 2023-24. He has one season remaining on his existing seven-year, $37.1 million deal before the new agreement begins. Slavin is currently a great top-four defenseman, but he's also 30 years old, so the blueliner might undergo a significant decline over the second half of his new contract.
