Canes Opt Not to Sign Hart or McLeod as Free Agency Opens
October 3, 2025 - 05:08
Carter Hart and Michael McLeod are now free to explore opportunities with other NHL teams, as the Carolina Hurricanes have decided against signing either player. Both athletes have entered the free agency market, allowing them to negotiate contracts with any interested franchises.
Hart, a goaltender previously with the Philadelphia Flyers, has shown flashes of brilliance during his career but has faced challenges in recent seasons. His potential as a starting goaltender makes him an attractive option for teams seeking to bolster their netminding position.
On the other hand, McLeod, a forward who has spent time with the New Jersey Devils, is known for his speed and tenacity on the ice. His ability to contribute both offensively and defensively could make him a valuable addition for teams looking to enhance their roster depth.
As both players begin their search for new teams, the Hurricanes' decision not to pursue them marks a significant moment in the ongoing reshaping of their roster.
