Hurricanes Re-Sign Jussi Jokinen to Three-Year Contract

The Carolina Hurricanes announced on Thursday that they have signed center Jussi Jokinen to a three-year contract extension worth $9 million. The deal will pay him $3 million per season. He would have been an unrestricted free agent on July 1. In 70 games last season, he had 19 goals and 33 assists for 52 points. He missed six games with an upper body injury in January and another six games with a lower body injury in February. This is a good signing for the Hurricanes, as Jokinen brings a lot of offensive skill to the team on the wing. He has good two-way skill, a great shot, is excellent on the power play, and excels in the shootout. Plus, at $3 million per season, he is a bargain for the Hurricanes.
