Any RFAs on the radar?

About 8 minutes ago, the sporting news is reporting that Ehlers is down to 2 teams; Carolina and Washington.

Sorry, we posted at the same time.

This is from the Hockey Writers FA tracker.

LA has picked up 4 or 5 guys already.

Don't forget Tennessee. I think it's more of a bonus than an advantage. Top talent wasn't clamoring to go to Florida when they were in the cellar, these guys want to go where opportunities to win are. In this instance it was more important to stay together than go for the money. And I don't know how much it balances, but the state still gets their money, its in the form of sales tax vs income tax.

We’ve aquired G Cayden Primeau from Montreal for a 2026 7th round pick. Played in 11 games last year for Montreal. https://www.nhl.com/hurricanes/news/canes-acquire-cayden-primeau-from-montreal

The Devils have traded Haula Sucks to Nashville for a 4th round pick and Dman Jeremy Handel. https://www.nhl.com/devils/news/devils-acquire-hanzel-pick-from-nashville-for-haula-release-6-18-25

I guess stranger things have happened, but they just signed Freddie to an extension, so I’d be surprised if he’s not back. I guess he’d be included on the trade for another goalie.

Many of the talking heads at the beginning of the season thought we'd have a season like New Jersey where we'd make the playoffs but get bounced pretty early. We did take a step back defensively, and lost TT and Noesen. We could have used his net presence this year. I think what hurt us the last few years is the 2nd line center spot. I was happy to see Svech and Aho have a good playoff run. That didn't happen last year. We bolster the defense, get a 2nd line C, and find a grit guy to screen the goalie on PPs we should be right where we want to be. I also think if I was the Hurricanes brass, I'd be having conversations with Rod about coaching changes. Gleason is about the only one I'd consider safe. PP has to get better regardless of roster, and if PK is the dude of the future, he has to improve.

That arena is happenin’!

Jarvy!! Right across the chest of Bob.

More like bipolar…
