The Carolina Hurricanes have secured forward Eric Robinson with a four-year contract valued at $6.8 million, as announced by GM Eric Tulsky. Robinson, who had a breakout season with a career-high 14 goals and 32 points, will count $1.7 million against the salary cap until the 2028-29 season. His performance in the recent playoffs, contributing three points in 15 games, added to the team's strong playoff presence, marking seven consecutive years in the postseason under head coach Rod Brind’Amour.

Tulsky praised Robinson's unique combination of size and speed, stating it aligns perfectly with the Hurricanes' playing style. Robinson's previous playoff experience from his time with the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2020 had set the stage for his successful adaptation with the Hurricanes.
