The Carolina Hurricanes welcomed another spot of good news on Thursday as defenseman Jaccob Slavin took to the ice without a yellow, non-contact jersey for the first time since the opening of training camp.
Slavin had been absent for the majority of camp before returning last week in the yellow, non-contact jersey.
The Canes had three players enter camp with "non-contact" status: Slavin, Mark Jankowski and K'Andre Miller, but all three have since shed them for the regular ones.
It bodes well for the Hurricanes who look to be one of the favorites in the Eastern Conference this season.
If the team can stay healthy, it will be a big blessing for the squad.
