Speaking of youth. 

I was looking at some rosters the past few days. Washington, Pitt, and Boston are going to fall off hard within the next 3-5 years. Way too many older dudes on their rosters. We could be the class of the conference for years to come. Us and Florida of course. 

Florida is older than us too, Not to mention the Canes pipeline is stacked...... 

All of our core skaters are still under 26..... We have two goalies with elite level skills in the pipeline, Staals eventual replacement in Drury, Ryan Suzuki, Keane ect.

 

This team isn't going anywhere for a long time...

Drury has been killing it with the Wolves for his position.

He was killing it when he was up with the Canes too, And don't look now but the Hurricanes just signed Alexander Pashin to his ELC  (a guy who we nabbed with a 7th round flier with top 5 talent and fell because he wasn't expected to move over from the KHL) he's a Russian Erik Cole (pre neck break).

Yeah, saw it the other day. That guy has a ton of promise as a top 6 guy. $750K to start then the next two years at $775K. Pretty, pretty, good. 

Plus, the Wolves ended the season as the best team in the AHL. It's crazy how bright the future is.

Oh and I'm going to bury the Hatchet with you on Svechnikov, I'll just leave it at this if he was a more selfish player he would be an easy 100 point guy... but he's fine being two way and overly physical for the team.

I already buried it, but clearly some others can't (not you).

The Canes have been excellent at scouting and developing talent the past 5-6 years.... Let's not forget before our affiliate changed to Chicago the Checkers won the Calder Cup.... The Checkers/Wolves are really just the "Future Hurricanes"

Oh yeah, my cousin plays for the Checkers right now. Connor Carrick. Was wishing he could be a Cane, but never came to pass. Did get to meet all his Maple Leaf teammates for his wedding in Chicago. That was fun.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
