The mighty keep getting mightier. After reaching the Eastern Conference Final for the first time since 2019, the Carolina Hurricanes are hungry for more.
Free agent forward Brendan Lemieux has signed a contract with the Carolina Hurricanes. The team announced his contract is a one-year deal worth $800k. Over a six-year career so far, the 27-year-old Lemieux is making his fifth stop, this time in Carolina.
The Philadelphia Flyers traded Zack MacEwen to the Los Angeles Kings in exchange for Brendan Lemieux and a fifth-round draft pick in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft.
It is not always the superstars who make the biggest impact in the Stanley Cup playoffs. Sometimes it is the depth player, the backup goalie or the forgotten trade deadline acquisition who is the difference between winning and losing.
