Ondrej Kase has signed a one-year contract with the Carolina Hurricanes worth $1.5 million.

Ondrej Kase did not get a qualifying offer from Toronto, which makes him eligible for unrestricted free agency.
Kase played in 50 games during the 2021-22 season and registered 27 points. However, his injury history and arbitration rights made him a risky player for the Leafs. Toronto extended qualifying offers to Pierre Engvall and Rasmus Sandin ahead of Monday's deadline.
Toronto GM Kyle Dubas isn't sure yet if the team will issue a qualifying offer to Ondrej Kase.
Kase is poised to become a restricted free agent, with arbitration rights, but he could be an unrestricted free agent if he doesn't receive a qualifying offer by the July 11 deadline. Kase notched 14 goals and 27 points in 50 appearances during the 2021-22 campaign.
Ondrej Kase (personal) is expected to play in Game 3 against Tampa Bay on Friday night despite missing the morning skate.
The Maple Leafs announced that Kase's absence was for a personal matter and coach Sheldon Keefe reiterated after the skate that the Toronto forward would be ready to play. Kase, who has two assists and three shots in the series, is projected to play alongside John Tavares and William Nylander.
