Official Canes Off-season Thread

I think that if we trade Necas we have to be really careful about doing it. Which is why Don Waddell said he would like a young d-man in the return. We can't have another Elias Lindholm trade happen where he flourishes somewhere else. 

As long as it's somewhere on the west coast....

He's on a $7M AAV now, I have to think he wants a 3-4 years somewhere in the $8.5 - 9M range? 

I have to think the Max Patch deal would not have been made had Carolina known this was going to happen. Calgary loses Gaudreau and now offering up Tkachuk after getting closer to the cup than Carolina did... geez, what's going on in Calgary?

Welp Nino signed with Nashville. Hope we have another plan because this team still looks like another in and out kind of playoff team.

So, Nino was making $5.25M in Carolina and signed a deal that will pay him $4M in Nashville for the next 2 years? WTF is going on in the Canes front office and what does this say about the organization that guys will sign elsewhere for less money? Carolina could have easily kept Nino. Instead they will now likely spend upwards of $5.5 - 6.5M to find a third line winger.

It tells me a couple of things:

1. The front office didn't value Nino to the tune of 2x4M. 

2. Could be withholding that money for cap room in a possible trade.

What if they are sneaking in talks with Calgary about Tkachuk? Granted, the Canes would have to give up a lot, but it would be worth it. They don't have enough players with elite scoring ability.

I don't think there were many who thought Nino was going to return.

How about Necas, Teuvo and a 1st? It would certainly make cap sense by including Teuvo.

Makes sense to me. Both Marty and TT often appeared to be reluctant shooters on a team that lives by putting shots on goal. Both could be consistent 50 point guys every year if they weren't so damn hesitant about shooting the puck.

This is worth mentioning:

"The Flames selected Tkachuk with the No. 6 overall pick in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. According to The Athletic, he has given Calgary a list of teams with whom he would agree to a long-term contract and according to a source of The Athletic, the teams include the St. Louis Blues, Vegas Golden Knights, Florida Panthers, Nashville Predators and Dallas Stars."

The Hurricanes are nowhere on that list.

Also have a tweet from a respected NHL journalist saying that list is incorrect.

    • I was still in the throes of a contentious divorce and my job at the time had me work on Sundays.  At the beginning of the season I tried to still work around Sundays so I could see our games.  I think after Bryce came back from the benching, I said fug it.  First time in my life I intentionally didn’t watch our games, even through the Atlanta finale.  In the past, even if we didn’t live up to expectations, I would watch to still support and at least analyze player development, strengths and weaknesses, coaching, etc., but Bryce makes all of that a moot point, so I stopped watching. Again, this is asinine,  it if he is retained (still can’t believe this is even a possibility of a conversation due to how shitty our organization has become under Tepper), I will NOT watch next season until he is gone.
    • Live look at Bryce playing ping pong.
    • I think a lot of us are feeling this way, enough is enough. There is absolutely no reason to subject the fans of your team to another full season of Bryce fuging Young. I already don't watch like I used to,I miss games and don't even care. Before I was always at the games or in my recliner when the game started now what's the point. Bryce won't have more than 50 yards passing by halftime anyway.   It's crazy how we watch these other teams dump a trash QB quickly yet here we are in year 3 still hoping he will get better,news flash,he won't. I'm not down for year 4,wake me up if we ever decide to replace the mistake.  fug it I can spend more time with my family or making money,fug Tepper.
