BRETT PESCE AGREES TO SIX-YEAR CONTRACT WITH NEW JERSEY DEVILS

Carolina Hurricanes veteran defenceman Brett Pesce is on the move after agreeing to a six-year, $33 million contract with the New Jersey Devils, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reported Monday.

The 29-year-old from Tarrytown, N.Y., was drafted in the third round, 66th overall, by the Hurricanes in 2013 and spent nine seasons with the club. 

Pesce had three goals and 13 points in 70 games this season. He added one assist in two playoff games before he sustained a fractured fibula near his ankle and missed the remainder of the post-season.

He recorded 39 goals and 198 points in 627 career games with the Hurricanes.
