They aren’t carrying a taxi squad in the NHL this season are they? 

No taxi squad this year which is why I feel like we should carry 23, the issue is fitting those 23 players under the cap along with Gardiner being on LTIR.

Sure we could always call someone up from Chicago but carrying 23 makes it easier.

Caught some highlights, looks like good things, things to work on, rooks are pulling their weight. 1 week and 1 day until regular season! 
 

For the majority of this season I think it’s prudent to do a single games thread, as the NBA forum does. Or perhaps monthly games thread so things don’t get completely lost.

Jarvis and Drury both look like players. And Cole looks like he's playing regular season already, the way he's was hitting guys last night.

Svech and Aho both had opportunities in the 3-on-3 OT to win last night and fumbled badly. Tripp and company were talking about how hard Svech worked in the off-season and how he was in camp early, but I don't think he looked good at all last night. He whiffed a couple shots, missed passes off his stick and his puck handling looked pretty rusty.

The team looked a little off in general with their passing, but I chalk it up to them still being in preseason mode.

Jarvis and Drury both look to be on an upwards trend.  I don't think they spend one of Jarvis's ELC years this year, but I think he'll see 9-10 games.  Drury might make the big club.

I noticed Bear really trying to force some passes that weren't there, we need to calm him down and let him know he doesn't have to try to do too much.

I think Svech also needs to relax and just play his game, it's like he's gripping his stick a little too tight since he signed that extension.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
