Rod Brind\'Amour Feels \'Really Good\' About New Deal With Hurricanes
Carolina Hurricanes coach Rod Brind\'Amour said Thursday he feels \"really good\" that he will reach a new contract with the team, mirroring optimism from president and general manager Don Waddell a day earlier.
Brind\'Amour - considered by many the face of the franchise with his long-running ties here that include being the captain of the 2006 Stanley Cup winner - is in the final year of a deal reached in 2021. His status has become a talking point around the league with multiple jobs open as Carolina prepares to face the New York Rangers in the second round of the NHL playoffs.
\"Yeah, I had a great conversation yesterday with Don, and then again this morning,\" Brind\'Amour said. \"I feel really good that we\'ll figure it out quickly. Yeah, I\'m not concerned.\"
