Well I’ve missed a day of it! Glad to see us making moves although I really wanted a new goalie.

Let’s see who we pick up for scoring, fill that gap and we are golden.

Svech won’t be firing on all cylinders until post Christmas and maybe we keep Max on Injury list until playoffs and play the cap game like others.

I miss my hockey!

Max is gone to Washington unfortunately.

I really have missed a lot. Thanks for update. Giving up social media has a downside lol

William Lagesson, who the Canes signed last year and spent all year in Chicago, is off to Toronto.

One nice thing about not having an affiliate is we don’t have to sign a bunch of no names because we have nowhere for them to play next year lol.

Lol. Also probably why every pick was going NCAA or played in Russia.

Still sucks for me though, I enjoyed getting to watch them play. (I live in Northern Illinois)

Oh nice, you get to watch the Calder Cup run?

Canes still need a goalie or 2, am I right?

Nevermind, I'm on the beach and trying to catch up on all the news....

A little bit, not a lot though.  Watched a few this past season though. Also went to the Canes game against the hawks as well.

So with the TDA deal all but being confirmed by Waddell, the current roster is:

Svechnikov - Aho - Jarvis

Teravainen - Kotkaniemi - Necas

Bunting - Staal - Fast

Martinook - Drury - Noesen

Rees

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Orlov - Chatfield

DeAngelo

Andersen

Raanta

Kochetkov

 

Coghlan, Ponomarev, and Suzuki are also options for depth positions.

With the TDA deal factored in, Canes essentially have $300K in cap space.

Any additional moves will have to come via trade unless someone gets thrown on LTIR.

One of those defenceman have to be moved. Ya don't pay 7.75m aav for 3rd pairing, unless they are only bringing TDA back to play the power play. That'd be weird, right.... that's just not me thinking 2.5m is a lot for just PP.

Orlov will be 2nd pair, TDA 3rd pair. 

Pesce or Skjei gets traded and Coghlan is the #7 D-man.

If Orlov is playing second then Skjei is gone. Orlov is a LHD and the only guy we’ve had play their off side in recent history is Chatfield.
