Carolina Hurricanes Playoffs


t96

Recommended Posts

For those that don't know, the NHL is officially returning to play today with play-in and round-robin games for a week and then regular best of 7 series playoffs. The game kicking off the return is your Carolina Hurricanes vs. New York Rangers at 12:00pm today, as a part of the play-in round (it's a best of 5 elimination series). For all intents and purposes this is the playoffs. We finally have some actual Carolina sports to discuss. 

 

There's a playoff thread in the Canes forum: 

Or we can just discuss here if allowed by MFCEO. Go Canes

Completely off topic but any idea on why they would not continue their affiliation with CLT? Made so much sense to have the farm team close to Raleigh and they were coming off a Calder Cup Championship.

The Checkers were fleecing them.  Pretty much the Canes gave them a discount for the affiliation.  The Checkers didn't want to up the ante.  Also the Checkers got mad at the Canes for calling up players to often during playoff pushes.  Checkers should have known their place.  The Canes pretty much handed them a Calder.

Same try Fox Sports South. 
 

Edit: Or Fox Sports or whatever the hell it is called now 

Switched from Spectrum to AT&T a few months ago. Turns out they don't carry Fox Sports Carolinas. 

Oh well.

Where is everyone watching this? NBCSports is blacked out for me. 

Yeah I’m out of market so I just have NBCSN. There may be some streams or other options if you look around.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
