Hurricanes trade Kaberle to the Canadiens for Spacek

The Carolina Hurricanes have traded defenseman Tomas Kaberle to the Montreal Canadiens for defenseman Jaroslav Spacek.

Kaberle was signed this offseason by the Hurricanes for 3 years at $12.75 million. Things didn’t work that well in Carolina for him, and he had been rumored to be on the trade block for over a month. He carries a $4.25 million cap for 2 more seasons.

Spacek carries a $3.833 million cap hit, and will be an unrestricted free agent after this season.

Gus Katsaros via twitter: “Expensive contract aside, the change in scenery could do Kabs some good. Another puck rusher letting Subban be the shot on the PP”

Dennis Bernstein via twitter: “All the Kaberle deal does is jam up cap space Gauthier’s successor would have had off Spacek expiring deal.”
