The Carolina Hurricanes’ training camp roster will be significantly lighter for tomorrow’s game against the Washington Capitals after fourteen players were released from camp and assigned to various other teams or, in one case, released outright from a PTO.
Yesterday, the Canes announced that Brendan Woods, Brody Sutter, Keegan Lowe, Matt Tennyson and Michael Leighton would be assigned to the Charlotte Checkers pending waivers. All five cleared waivers, and will be joined in Checkers camp by goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic, forwards Andrew Poturalski and Valentin Zykov, and defensemen Dennis Robertson and Jake Chelios.
