Blake will most likely crack the lineup next year. He’s only a year younger than Jarvis and already proved a lot in 2 years of college. Having him sit in the AHL makes little sense and his ELC will allow them to have more freedom in signing guys.

You know it’s a great Rod clip when he has to apologize because he may not have answered the question. He’s so locked into what he has to say he just forgets the question

This team is going to be very fun to watch.

The canes could bridge him and give him the opportunity he is looking for… I understand the concern over size but, the canes have just 4 forwards under 6’0. They got Miller, Reilly and Nikishin all joining the back end with size. Is “size” really a reason not to fix the 2C?

I loved Don as GM but, this was one of the biggest mistakes in franchise history. The fact that he blew it with both Tkachuk and Eichel who both went on to win cups soon after says a lot. It’s why I’m so excited for Tulsky at the helm. He’s getting things done.

Pretty funny that it’s been so slow that Frank is racking his brain here to come up with teams. Also right back to status quo that Carolina does not get mentioned.

All RFAs are now taken care of

Really happy to see Suzuki signed. Still think there’s a chance he can be the 4C at some point.

Call me a homer but, Aho at the Olympics will have more of an impact on Finlands performance than either of the other 2 guys. Guys compete level is off the charts and he’s going to have a lot to prove against so many of his friends at the Olympics this year.

Carolina Hurricanes Parm

Have to start wondering for the longer tenured guys, how many records they are on pace for as the team continues to make playoffs. 7 years in a row, quite a few guys are racking up playoff stats.

Hope this legend is having a wonderful National Ice Cream Day 🤣🍦

Laying the ground work early to downplay the canes achievements next season. Respect to rupp for continuing the bit.

There really are people who think Aho isn’t a 1C

I won the lottery to be a canes stick kid for a game in the early 2000’s It included my first jersey, glass seats, sat on the bench for warmups, got Kevin Weekes goalie stick and was a canes fan ever since.

Holding ownership accountable would be a good start. That’s usually the core of most of the problems teams face.

Also want to shout out Jorge Alves. Happy to see him get a promotion and well deserved. Extremely nice guy and one of the pillars of the org up there with Rod/Gleason.

Bochner saw Nikishin come to America and said It’s time for me to leave as well. Really excited to have him here in America to help with development of all the Russians.

Not much of a “what if” If the front office didn’t botch the Guentzel negotiations they probably still land Ehlers in the off season and we avoid Mikko all together.

I’m refusing to get delusional over the idea he’s actually available but, if any of the reports are true… This is the guy the canes should be doing every last thing they can to acquire.
