A draft agreement for the sale of the Carolina Hurricanes to a group led by lawyer Chuck Greenberg has been given to lawyers for both sides for vetting, two sources with knowledge of the sale process said Wednesday. Both requested anonymity because of the sensitivity of the negotiations.

While it’s another step along the process of selling the team, there are still hurdles for the deal to clear in the details – Greenberg is also still finalizing the makeup of his investor group – and potentially still a small window for another buyer to insert himself into the process, as current Hurricanes owner Peter Karmanos indicated last week.
