BREAKING: Halak Given One Last Chance to Stay in the NHL
Jaroslav Halak has been in the NHL for a whopping 17 years. While many assumed his chapter in the league as over, it now appears he has been given a final chance.
Halak Joins the Hurricanes for One Last Chance in the NHL
Elliotte Friedman broke the story, confirming that Halak would be given one last chance at NHL glory with the Hurricanes.
There is also word that 17-year veteran Jaroslav Halak will practising with Carolina today. He's not signed — appears to be a PTO — but the Hurricanes are bringing him in to take a look.
The Hurricanes then released this statement:
Goaltender Jaroslav Halak is joining the Hurricanes as a free agent tryout. Frederik Andersen is dealing with a medical issue and undergoing evaluations. An update will be provided when available, but no further comment will be issued until that time. Many will remember Halak from his legendary 2010 cup run. He may not be that goalie anymore, but he is still valuable depth for the red-hot Hurricanes.
Will Halak be able to claim another cup before he calls it quits?
