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.

    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
