Two weeks after signing a professional tryout contract (PTO) with the Carolina Hurricanes, it looks like Jaroslav Halak will be seeking a new team for the 2023-24 season.
On Monday, according to Walt Ruff, the Hurricanes have released Halak from his professional tryout contract, making him an unrestricted free agent once again.

Halak, 38, was brought in by the Carolina Hurricanes on November 6th after the team announced Frederik Andersen would be out indefinitely with a medical issue. The Bratislava native never appeared in any games for the Hurricanes during his PTO.
In 25 games last season for the New York Rangers, Halak had a record of 10-9-5 with a 2.72 goals against average, a .903 save percentage and one shutout.
