Tomas Kaberle Signs 3-Year Deal With Carolina
BOSTON (CBS) - Defenseman Tomas Kaberle has signed a three-year, $12.75 million dollar deal with the Carolina Hurricanes.
Kaberle leaves the Bruins after a disappointing stint in Boston, but one that ended with the B's winning the Stanley Cup.
The 33-year-old Kaberle was acquired from the Toronto Maple Leafs at the trade deadline for Joe Colborne, the Bruins 2011 first-round pick and a 2012 second-round pick. He recorded one goal and just eight assists in 24 regular season games, but was tied for second on the team with 11 assists in the playoffs.
