Carolina has signed Jacob’s younger brother Josiah to a two-year two-way contract. https://www.nhl.com/hurricanes/news/canes-sign-josiah-slavin-to-two-year-contract

So I was just looking at this and thought that would be a possibility. I'll take it. This was as 3:45PM: Here are some of the players who remain on the UFA market that could sign at some point Monday or shortly after: Sean Walker, D Shayne Gostisbehere, D Ryan Suter, D Vladimir Tarasenko, F Adam Henrique, F Mattias Janmark, F Jeff Skinner, F Daniel Sprong, F James van Riemsdyk, F Tyler Johnson, F Jack Roslovic, F Alex Wennberg, F Cam Atkinson, F Tomas Tatar, F Kyle Okposo, F

Friedman also reported Jordan Martinook is returning to the Carolina Hurricanes on a three-year contract with a $3.05 million AAV. https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-free-agency-live-blog

Tyler Bertuzzi AND Teuvo Teravainen are signing with the Chicago Blackhawks when the market opens, according to Chris Johnston of TSN and The Athletic. https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-free-agency-live-blog Edit: And this one sucks to hear: The Predators are on target to be the team of the day if they get both Stamkos and Marchessault, and then Skjei as well.

"The Carolina Hurricanes are expected to sign forward Eric Robinson to a one-year deal with a cap hit just below $1M, per David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period. Robinson spent last season with the Buffalo Sabres, where he recorded nine points across 40 games." https://www.msn.com/en-ca/sports/nhl/hurricanes-expected-to-sign-eric-robinson/ar-BB1pdljq

Let's go boys! Wipe the ice with those Rags!! Go Canes!

I’m going Turbo tonight.

Let’s Go Canes!!!!

Golfing apparently…

I’d love to understand the reasoning with Comtois. If you wanted a goon, why wouldn’t you have Brendan Lemieux suit up?

Jarvis

I just don’t understand why we had all 4 guys on the right side of the net. No one covered the net front.

Let’s Go boys!

DELETED

I hear ya, but two years ago we were up 2-0 on the Rangers and they won game 7. Last year the Rags were up 2-0 on the Devils we played NJ in the 2nd round. I think we can still make a go of the series if we lose tonight, but I want to see Hurricanes hockey tonight. We do that, and I think we'll be just fine.

Cory gives me a PeeWee Herman find of vibe...

My concern would still be a concern had we won today. We have got to start playing 3 periods of hockey. We heard it coming out of the 1st round, and it popped up again today. We settle in and play start to finish we’ll be fine, but until we can show we can do it, I’m biting my nails a bit. Special teams can’t take a step back in the playoffs. Here’s to coming home with the series 1-1. I wouldn’t be surprised if we’ll have to win 2 in MSG to advance.

Sounded like no on the podcast. Willis will be doing some stuff on WRAL.

Shane Willis got me fired up listening to the Canes Cast podcast. He likes the Rangers as much as we do. Lets Go Canes!

I wish the NHL would make a rule that says if a foul is called, that penalty negates embellishment. To me at least, it seems like its either one or the other, but not both.

I still don’t understand why the Checkers didn’t work out. It seemed like a no-brainer. I used to love going to the games in Charlotte and watching our prospects, but I haven’t been since the affiliation change.

Great 3rd period, now let’s take care of business against the Rags. I really hate those guys.

Point, set, and match.
