The Carolina Hurricanes and restricted free agent forward Jack Drury avoided arbitration by agreeing to a two-year contract with a $1.725-million average annual value, the team announced Wednesday.
Drury was one of 14 NHL players to file for arbitration earlier this offseason, alongside teammate Martin Necas.
Seth Jarvis is another prominent RFA on Carolina's books this summer, but he isn't arbitration-eligible. The Hurricanes have approximately $13 million in cap space to work with, according to Puckpedia.
Drury was a second-round pick in 2018. He set career highs in games (74), goals (eight), and points (27) this past season.
