The Chicago Wolves

Koochie and all the other players with Canes contracts sent the Wolves affiliate still belong to the Canes is my understanding. The question is who a new affiliate for the Canes might be. Living near Charlotte I would love to see the Canes affiliate AHL come back to the Charlotte Checkers, not sure contract wise if that’s possible though.

Correct, the players are under contract to the Canes, not the franchise.

So, the Checkers are a Florida Panthers affiliate and have been so since 2020-2021 season. All I can find is a multi-year deal is in place and I have no idea about the terms of that affiliate contract.

The Canes, at one point several years ago, shared an affiliate contract with an AHL or ECHL team, can't remember which one it was. That's not out of the question, either.

Dundon just needs to nut up and buy the Checkers! Kick the Panthers and the Krakens asses out of Bojangles Collesium and finally build out a regional fanbase.

I live in the CLT area and it is insane how many people I meet that regularly go to Checkers games but are not Canes fans. The hockey fanbase is here, the Hurricanes just need to capitalize on it.

Cheaper tickets, less of a drive for an AHL game. Greensboro might be a little too close for comfort. Charlotte would be perfect.

Live in the Charlotte area and I haven’t been to a Checkers game since the affiliation change.  Would love to have the Canes back here.

Same here! 

Checkers have already made the playoffs too.

Wolves were down 4-2 with less than 10 minutes to go in the third but they come back to win 5-4 in OT.

Just need a loss from either Iowa or Rockford and the Wolves will be headed to the playoffs.

Rockford up 3-0, Iowa tied 1-1. Both games midway through the 2nd.

    • They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.   
    • There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
    • I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
