Justin Peters will serve as Cam Ward's backup next season.

"It's the right time for Justin in the process of his development," GM Jim Rutherford said. "He improved so much last season and dominated in the American Hockey League (with the Albany River Rats)." Peters had a 2.54 GAA and .917 save percentage in 45 games with AHL Albany in 2009-10. He also enjoyed a late season stint with the Carolina Hurricanes, posting a 2.83 GAA and .905 save percentage in nine NHL games. Ward would probably have to suffer an injury next season for Peters to start in more than 15 games.

The Carolina Hurricanes aren't expected to re-sign Manny Legace.

Hurricanes GM Jim Rutherford has already informed Legace that they've decided to start the 2010-11 season with Justin Peters as their number two goaltender. Legace had a 2.89 GAA and .904 save percentage in 30 games last season. He's 37 years old and his value is dwindling, but Legace doesn't want to think about retirement yet. He should be able to find a team that would be interested in using him as a backup goaltender.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
