So apparently DW said that Patches is going on LTIR today and that they are exploring options.

There’s also a Reddit rumor that Lenovo has won the naming rights to the RBC Center… I mean PNC Arena… or whatever the hell they want to call it.

Meh it's been PNC the entertainment and sports arena and others.... I may be over estimating how clever the FO wanted to be but Patches had tendinitis in his achilles last season, I can't help but think this was a calculated move to pull a Kucherov....

So listening to the DW interview, it seems like they expect Patches back before the playoffs, so there may not be some huge move because they’d need to be cap compliant as soon as he comes back. I think we’ll add a depth piece and then move out someone like Bear at the trade deadline to open up room for Patches. I think Stastny would be a good add, he provides a really good net presence and would probably work well with Staal.

DW also stated that Gardiner will be in camp, which at this point was to be expected as we have plenty of cap space. As soon as Patches goes on LTIR we’ll have just over $5M in cap space and that’s with Gardiner’s numbers factored in.

I think you try to get Stastny in here at like 1YR/$2M and then at the trade deadline you either send out Gardiner or a combination of Bear and Martinook to make room for Patches.

Pre-Deadline

Svech - Aho - Turbo

Necas - KK - Jarvis

Stastny - Staal - Fast

Marty - Drury - Kase

Noesen/Dzingel

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Gardiner - Bear

Chatfield

Andersen

Raanta


Post-Deadline

Svech - Aho - Turbo

Patches - KK - Jarvis

Necas - Staal - Fast

Stastny - Drury - Kase

Noesen/Dzingel

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Gardiner - Chatfield

Coghlan

Andersen

Raanta

Prospect tourney is coming up soon, we’ll be a fun time to see our young guys. We also have a few kids in World Juniors right now.

We still have a ton of talent in the pipeline, Even with the assumption that Drury and one other move up... 

It may not be elite talent but it's solid middle 6 F and Top 4 D talent.

Yeah I think Drury, Morrow, and Kochetkov are the only guys that I see being big time players for us but I also like Rizzo, Fensore, Wall (unsigned), Honka (unsigned), Seeley, Nikishin, Ponomarev, Robidas, Blake, Koivunen, Lucius, Perevalov, and Trikozov.

Still a lot of good talent there and maybe some surprises.

      Another Win

      Kalkbrenner and Sion James received regular contracts and not two ways, so the Hornets have some work to do to cut the roster size down.

      Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.

      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.
