Canes sign Babchuk as expected


Recommended Posts

The Carolina Hurricanes have re-signed Anton Babchuk to a one-year contract.

Babchuk will earn $1.4 million next season in what is starting to become a good Carolina defense. Babchuk did not sign with the Hurricanes last season, choosing to return to his native Russia where he had nine goals and 22 points in 49 games with Omsk. He managed 16 goals and 35 points in 2008-09 with the Hurricanes so he is definitely a sleeper this season with his offensive flair.

This guy has great ability, but a huge attitude problem. Hopefully he's a year wiser after going back home.

He's good on the powerplay but he can be a defensive liability. I'm not exactly ecstatic about this move, but I think he could help the team.

Back on the blue line I'm really looking forward to seeing what McBain can do over an entire season.

    • yeah, but the actual jersey Bryce Young is wearing is not the same jersey you are buying from Fanatics.   
    • i just feel like i read this he says she says poo all the time over & over again  on the internet  TV  work ,in public & then i think back to myself oh what a sick slandermongering world we live in now. ts just like those National Enquirer magazines you find in the grocery store at the checkout counter which are nothing more than complete & utter BS  & more often than not when you assume something then you make an ASS out of U & ME. so chill &  let the courts do their job & if he is guilty well he is guilty  LOL either or this has nothing at all whatsoever to do with Carolina Panthers football   
    • Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter
