Hurricanes' Domenick Fensore: Two points in minor-league game
Rotowire
Fensore scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in AHL Chicago's 4-1 win over Iowa on Saturday.
Fensore had 32 points over 67 regular-season games a year ago, and he earned his first two NHL appearances at the tail end of 2024-25. He'll likely need to a show a little more on offense to be a realistic call-up candidate for the Hurricanes this year, though that opportunity won't surface if Carolina's defense corps stays healthy.
Fensore signed a one-year, two-way contract with Carolina on Wednesday.
Fensore appeared in just two NHL games last year in which he generated five shots, three hits and two PIM while being held off the scoresheet. The Boston University product was significantly more productive in the minors with nine goals and 23 helpers in 67 regular-season tilts with AHL Chicago. While the 2019 third-round pick could see a little more action with the Canes this year, he figures once again to spend the bulk of his minutes in the minors.
