Playing time for Kelvin?

Hearing people say he might only play 1-2 possessions. I know he has the starting job locked up, though we need to see what he offers in a real game. How long do you think we see him for? I was hoping for a good two quarters.

Two possessions sounds about right. I wouldnt expect a lot of PT for him until Cam hits the field as well. Plus, he is going to be on this team come the regular season. They need the guys like Lucas/Pilares/Bersin/King/Underwood to get majority of reps. Evaluation time for guys trying to grab a roster spot.

I'm a strong believer that KB is the real deal.. Still needs to be getting that playing time considering hes a rookie.

Yes he does. Im just not so sure it will happen game one. He needs all the playing time he can get, but Im thinking that will start more in game 2. And i know the knee isn't an issue, but that doesn't mean Rivera and Co. wont play it safe. Hopefully i am wrong and he plays first half tho.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
