There were plenty of updates from the Carolina Hurricanes today, including from a few of their pending unrestricted free agents. In particular, according to Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal<\/a>, the team hasn\u2019t started contract negotiations with Dmitry Orlov<\/a>, but the defenseman still considers the Hurricanes an option.<\/p>\n

Carolina likely hasn\u2019t had talks with Orlov because he won\u2019t be their highest priority entering the offseason.\u00a0The Hurricanes have a remarkably impressive left side of their defensive core, featuring Jaccob Slavin<\/a>, Shayne Gostisbehere<\/a>, and\u00a0Alexander Nikishin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Still, Orlov is coming off an impressive season in his own right. The 13-year veteran scored six goals and 22 points in 76 games for Carolina this season and was one of their top options on the penalty kill. He sustained his physicality and again reached the 20-minute on-ice average after dipping below the threshold last season. He\u2019ll find plenty of interest in his services on the free-agent market, particularly from the Anaheim Ducks, Detroit Red Wings, New York Islanders, and San Jose Sharks, who each played below average with a man disadvantage.<\/p>\n

Other notes from the Hurricanes:<\/p>\n

On the other hand, there is one defenseman eager to stay in Raleigh. Earlier today, team reporter Walt Ruff shared<\/a> a quote from veteran defenseman Brent Burns<\/a> saying, \u201cWe\u2019ll see what happens, but we love it here and would love for it to work out.\u201d Whether or not it works out with the Hurricanes, it seems that Burns will return for a 22nd season. Still, he did show signs of slowing down this season, scoring six goals and 29 points in 82 games after tallying 43 points a year prior.
\nMoving over the injury-related news, Ruff reported<\/a> that forward Seth Jarvis<\/a> was dealing with the same shoulder injury from last year throughout the regular season and playoffs. According to the report, Ruff indicated that Jarvis has already ruled out surgery as an option to avoid missing the start of the 2025-26 campaign and to keep his name in contention for Team Canada\u2019s 2026 Olympic roster.
\nLastly, Lavalette reported<\/a> that defenseman Jalen Chatfield<\/a> was dealing with a hip injury and was close to returning before the Hurricanes were eliminated in the Eastern Conference Final. Chatfield, like many of his peers on Carolina\u2019s roster, had a largely successful trip through Round One and Two of the 2024-25 Stanley Cup playoffs. He scored one goal in nine games with a +6 rating before suffering the injury in Game 4 against the Washington Capitals, and had a 92.2% on-ice save percentage at even strength.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There were plenty of updates from the Carolina Hurricanes today, including from a few of their pending unrestricted…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":54977,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5107],"tags":[1772,194,29,5176,2913,5,195,402,1447,4,1177],"class_list":{"0":"post-54976","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-carolina-hurricanes","8":"tag-brent-burns","9":"tag-carolina","10":"tag-carolina-hurricanes","11":"tag-carolinahurricanes","12":"tag-dmitry-orlov","13":"tag-hockey","14":"tag-hurricanes","15":"tag-injury","16":"tag-jalen-chatfield","17":"tag-nhl","18":"tag-seth-jarvis"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/114598973696351990","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54976"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54976\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54977"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=54976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=54976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
