In an interview this summer, Halak mentioned that he would like to play one last season in the NHL and was ready to sign a contract. At the age of 38, offers have been relatively scarce for him, but he has just received one.
Indeed, Halak has signed a professional tryout contract with the Carolina Hurricanes. With Frederik Andersen's injury, the Canes needed to react.
Halak will have the opportunity to convince the team's management to sign a contract for the rest of the year, which should be a formality for a seasoned professional like him.
