Slavin signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Hurricanes on Wednesday. Slavin just finished up his second season at Colorado College this spring, earning first-team All-NCHC honors after producing five goals and 17 points in 34 games. The 21-year-old offers good size (6-foot-2, 200 pounds) on defense, but will probably spend the whole upcoming season with AHL Charlotte.
