The Carolina Hurricanes on Friday signed a pair of players, left wing Warren Foegele and right wing Spencer Smallman, to entry level contracts. Both players will remain with their junior clubs through their postseason runs, and will be eligible to join the Charlotte Checkers at the conclusion of their seasons presuming the Checkers are still playing.
Foegele, the Canes’ third-round pick from the 2014 draft, becomes the final player from that draft class to sign a contract with the Hurricanes. His contract clock was paused because of the time he spent at New Hampshire before joining the Kingston Frontenacs early in the 2015-16 season.
