Not a signing yet, but word that it's being worked on. From 99.9 the Fan's site.
Rutherford plans to sign LaRose and Cole before July 1.
By Tim Hall
Updated 22 minutes ago
The Carolina Hurricanes were left with a plethora of off season issues after the final playoff game on May 26. Head coach Paul Maurice took over the team in December but his contract only took him through the end of the season. Several players become unrestricted free agents including Erik Cole and rising star Chad LaRose.
Team president and general manager Jim Rutherford addressed some of these issues and instead of calling them "priorities", he would simply like to get all of these
"The draft of course is very important to us in a couple of weeks but we would like to get some of these unrestricted guys signed in Cole, LaRose certainly prior to July 1," Rutherford told 99.9FM The Fan's Mike Maniscalco on Wednesday. "If we don't then we run the risk of losing them."
Then there is the issue of head coach Paul Maurice and how long it will be before a new contract is worked out for him. Rutherford had already made it known that he wanted to keep the current coaching staff intact.
"I have made the decision that I'd like to keep them together and now I'm just working through that," Rutherford said. "Hopefully by the first of next week we can have it resolved."
After Rutherford's comments on Wednesday all signs point to Paul Maurice being on the bench for the Carolina Hurricanes next season. Rutherford did say that the contract issues with the coaches would come first.

Here is a link to an audio that I somehow missed. Eric talks about Jordan and the SCF and also about some injuries from the Canes. Apparently Erik had a rib injury and Ruutu actually had shoulder surgery at the end of the season! www.850thebuzz.com/blog/?p=10095

I guess he should follow his gut instincts more often!! I wonder if he will be in Thunder when Jordan brings the Cup home.

I would bet that he will be there. Although I do wonder when Eric and Tanya's baby is due?

Sometime in September is all we know. Shannon and I were just discussing today if they would have the baby here or in Thunder Bay....

I'd bet Eric would be there for Jordan's day. All the brothers were there for Eric's day and I can't imagine Eric missing the family celebration.
Yeah...we're not quite sure when Baby Staal will make his/her appearance. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for Eric I guess.

Oh well if she isn't due until September than he has plenty of time to be in Thunder Bay with his baby brother and the cup. Although it had never crossed my mind she might want to have the baby in Thunder Bay.. hmmmm....

Since they're still Canadian citizens, that was the guess - to have the baby there. But, it'll depend on how close she's due to camp, I guess.
