The clock continues to tick on Carolina Hurricanes coach Bill Peters.
Peters has until Friday to decide if he will opt out of the final year of his contract with the Hurricanes. With three NHL teams looking for coaches, Peters, if offered, could decide to leave a team he has coached the past four seasons.
Peters was in St. Louis on Thursday, preparing for the upcoming IIHF World Championship in Denmark. He's serving as head coach for Team Canada for the second time in three years, having won a gold medal for Canada in 2016.
