Jordan Staal just got a massive one-year contract extension with the Carolina Hurricanes — a deal made possible by timing, as the new CBA would’ve blocked this front-loaded structure. Coming off his best season in a decade and a historic playoff run, Staal’s new deal includes a $900K base salary, a $4M signing bonus, and up to $5.1M in performance bonuses. At 37, he became the oldest player ever to win the Conn Smythe Trophy, earning 17 of 21 votes for playoff MVP. GM Eric Tulsky praised Staal not just for his play, but as the heart of the team’s culture and leadership — mentoring younger players like Logan Stankoven and anchoring a “family” atmosphere built on grit. With training camp around the corner, having their captain locked in for two more seasons is a huge boost for the Canes.
