In 32 games with the Hurricanes last season, he had three goals, two assists, and 64 penalty minutes. He also signed a one-year, $775,000 extension with the club this past March to remain with the club for this campaign.

In 307 career NHL games split between the Winnipeg Jets, New York Rangers, Los Angeles Kings, Flyers, and Hurricanes, Lemieux has 36 goals, 74 points, 548 penalty minutes, and 738 hits.
