The Carolina Hurricanes have plenty of cap space to re-sign their three RFAs
Cory Lavalette of the Athletic: The Carolina Hurricanes still have some RFAs to sign and may look to the free agent market to add some depth to the organization.
Martin Necas and Jack Drury filed for back wages. Trade talks involving Necas have quieted down and it looks like he may return next year on a one-year contract. He has been a UFA for two years.
The Hurricanes have more than $13 million in salary cap space, so they have room to add Necas to the $5.5-$6.5 million range and get Drury and Seth Jarvis in bridge deals.

Dan Kingerski of Pittsburgh Hockey Now: Should Pittsburgh Penguins GM Kyle Dubas consider giving someone the sheets if he's serious about their youth move?
The Penguins don't have a second-round pick of their own since they traded it to the Montreal Canadiens for one draft pick.
Less than $1.51 million – no compensation.
Between $1.51 million and $2.29 million – third round pick
Between $2.29M and $4.58 million – second round pick
Between $4.58 million and $6.87 million – first and third round picks.
They have about $3.5 million in real estate. More if they decide to release a certain salary. A potential offer sheet target for the Penguins.
Seth Jarvis – Carolina Hurricanes – Can pay more than one year and re-sign after next season. The Hurricanes have about $11 million in cap space.
Cole Perfetti – Winnipeg Jets – If it's $3 million or less, the Jets can probably match it. The Penguins can only offer $2.29 but maybe the threat could lead to a trade.
