According to NBC Sports and Swiss newspaper sources, Nathan Gerbe is close to signing a deal in the Swiss League with National League A side Geneve-Servette.
Gerbe was a fan favorite at Boston College, spending three seasons with the Eagles from 2005-2008. Gerbe left BC a year early to join the Buffalo Sabres organization and spent the next two seasons splitting time between the AHL and NHL. He then spent 3 seasons playing exclusively in the NHL for the Sabres before joining the Carolina Hurricanes for the 2013-14 season. Gerbe just wrapped up his third season with the Hurricanes, and will be an unrestricted free agent on July 1.
