    I'm not seeing anything about Carolina handing out a $7.5M contract to anyone.

    Those are the confirmed moves as of now, minus the Miller deal. 

    Cap space at $19.032M

    1.5M wouldn't be more than the respective tax difference.... it really is one hell of an advantage for Texas,Florida, and Nevada teams.

    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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  6. Toronto won game 6 2-0 in Sunrise and Florida won game 7 6-1.  Would love nothing more than to make this thing a series, but I also understand this isn't an uphill battle, but probably an upmountain battle at this point.  I'll be rooting them on no matter what though, GO CANES!

    Exactly why I said playing Morrow over Nikishin was a mistake. Nothing to with Morrow being bad but Nikishin fits a series against Florida more than Morrow does by a lot. 

    Got a kick out of the TNT crew basically saying bet Rod feel like an idiot playing Marrow over him. Sad thing is he probably doesn’t.
