The reason Freddie didn't dress

In order to get your name on the cup, you have to dress for 41 regular season games or AT LEAST ONE PLAYOFF GAME. Coochie is now eligible to be on the cup.

If AI is correct Kotkaniemi played in 42 regular season games so would also have his name on the cup.

Deslauriers only has 31 games for the 2025-2026 season. 

If the Canes win Thursday, does RBA put him on the 4th line, give him a few shifts? Otherwise, he'll be the only guy on the playoff roster not to have his name on the Cup. I

He played against Ottawa when Fly was injured. That would give him his 1 playoff game, so he’d be on there if I’m reading the OP correctly.

Yep, you're right. I forgot about that. Fly was banged up, but RBA put him on the ice for a reason, too. Could have put KK out there, but there was a purpose for Deslauriers on the ice.

He did play in 42 games based in NHL stats.
