Hurricanes Sign Jay Harrison to Two-Year Contract
The Carolina Hurricanes announced today that they have signed defenseman Jay Harrison to a two-year contract extension worth $1.4 million. The deal will pay him $650,000 in 2011-12 and $750,000 in 2012-13. He would have been an unrestricted free agent on July 1. In 72 games last season with the Hurricanes, he had three goals and seven assists for 10 points and 72 penalty minutes. Not a bad depth signing for the Hurricanes, as Harrison is a stay-at-home defenseman with good size and strength and plays with lots of toughness. He will likely continue to play as the team's sixth defenseman over the next two years.

In 58 career NHL games with the Toronto Maple Leafs and Carolina Hurricanes, he has one goal and seven assists for eight points.

Hurricanes Sign Defenseman Harrison to One-Year Deal
The Carolina Hurricanes announced that they have signed defenseman Jay Harrison to a one-year, two-way contract. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Harrison appeared in seven games last season with the Toronto Maple Leafs after signing as a free agent with the team on March 27, scoring one assist. Prior to signing with the Maple Leafs last season, he appeared in 41 games with EV Zug of the Swiss National League, scoring six goals and nine assists for 15 points and 96 penalty minutes. This is really just a depth move for the Hurricanes’ defense, as Harrison will likely play most of next season in the minors. If he does play with the team next season, he will bring plenty of grit and rugged play as a sixth or seventh defenseman.
