Clark Bishop will again be suiting up for the Carolina Hurricanes and Charlotte Checkers next season. The 23 year-old center has signed a one-year extension with the Hurricanes organization. It is a two-way contract; he will be paid $700,000 at the NHL level and $65,000 at the AHL level, with an $80,000 guarantee. Bishop will require clearing waivers to be assigned to Charlotte next season.
Bishop had three points (1g, 2a) while playing 20 games with the Hurricanes last season, the final year of his entry-level contract signed in 2016. He spent most of the year with the Checkers, where he recorded six points (3g, 3a) in 38 AHL regular season games.
