Following a rough few years, DeAngelo, 28, had the worst season of his career in 2023-24. He took part in only 31 games with the Carolina Hurricanes and struggled to have a positive impact on his team. He tallied three goals and eight assists in the regular season, as well as two assists in nine playoff games.
A recent report suggested that DeAngelo could be joining the KHL. DeAngelo entered free agency on July 1st, and he hasn't signed a contract yet, fueling the rumors of him moving to the KHL.
