RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) The Carolina Hurricanes have re-signed goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic to a two-year contract.
The team announced the deal Friday. It is a two-way deal for the 2019-20 season, paying Nedeljkovic $725,000 at the NHL level and $70,000 at the American Hockey League level with a $125,000 guarantee. It is a one-way deal for the 2020-21 season worth $750,000.
