The Carolina Hurricanes signed forward Jackson Blake to an eight-year, $45-million extension that starts in the 2026-27 season, the club announced Thursday.
Blake recorded 17 goals with 17 assists for 34 points in his rookie campaign in 2024-25. He added another six points (three goals, three assists) across 15 playoff contests during the Hurricanes' run to the Eastern Conference Final.
The 21-year-old ranked first among NHL freshmen with six game-winning goals last season.
