Welp series over

I get it I just think this Rangers team is really good, even though I hate them. It would also take elite goalie play to take 4 of 5 which we haven’t seen to this point.

Not excited to watch Freddie again tonight. Coming back from 2-0 will be almost impossible against this team if we lose. Also, someone please lay into Trouba.

Can’t watch Freddie keep flailing around. Good grief.

If that’s a penalty then Trouba should have a major.

Somebody needs to lay into Trouba.

Not buying this at all. Tom has shown he won’t be cheap. RBA made it clear he wants to be here. RBA has had one of the best starts ever to a career as a head coach. And the Canes have gone from one of the worst teams in the league with low attendance to a premier team with a rejuvenated fan base. If there is any smoke, I would assume it’s all part of the negotiation and it will get done in the end.

Appreciate everybody's input here. Looking forward to going next week.

He showed flashes in 2022 and especially the bowl game but was overshadowed in the regular season by Juice Wells. He also credits his work with Deebo in the offseason as having a huge impact on his game. He may be a one year wonder by metrics but it was all due to hardwork and development and not so much of a fluke.

Been a Canes fan as long as I can remember. Been to a few games in Florida in 2007ish but finally going to my first home game on the 21st against the Flyers with my stepdad (Flyers fan). Any advice on parking for fairly cheap? Any other tips?

Andrei Vagilevskiy

Either of those guys would be great. Vatrano costs less in cap space and both have an additional year. Would give us 3 legitimate lines with Drury and Staal being the weakest links.

What are we thinking, are we done? I wish there was a 2C out there we could make a play on but so far Lindholm is the only decent C I’ve seen available.

Not sure if it was mentioned but the first is dependent on us making the Finals. If no Finals, it becomes the Flyers 2nd. I’m very impressed with Waddell on this one. Now go get us a 2C.

I just can’t see that getting it done. Probably takes at least one of the guys in the tier below Nikishin.

Please no Necas

Agreed with KK signing setting us back. Also sitting on our hands and not upgrading G and 1C anytime over the past 5 years. Those have been holes essentially since EStaal and Cam Ward. I would have really liked to see what the conversation was like around Pettersson.

Gotcha. I wish one of my teams would just have long term sustained success. The only team that gives me that right now is Gamecock Women’s Basketball. And as great as that is…it’s women’s basketball. lol

You must not be familiar with the 2009-2018 stretch of Hurricanes hockey.

Is this the greatest team ever assembled? More at 11

Good news about Mitch. Haven’t been impressed with him. But also not impressed by that list of names either.

I forgot what good passing looked like. This is a completely different team.
