In-Semin-Ated for Five More Years

Last Summer, the Carolina Hurricanes took a one-year flier on Alexander Semin, as he had trouble finding a long term deal as a free agent.  With 22 assists, 30 points, and a plus-18 rating, the Hurricanes have decided to give Semin that long-term deal he had sought, with a new five-year deal that will be worth $7 million a year, or what he made this season.  Currently, the Hurricanes are in a struggle for a playoff spot, and considering that Cam Ward is out for the season, Semin's offensive output is a welcome sight for the Hurricanes as they are only four points out of the division lead and a single point behind the Rangers for the eight spot in the playoffs.
