KK is out, maybe better for your chances? Definitely pulling for Habs to get that 2nd wildcard spot and then you can take out the Caps.

Puckpedia has a few additional snippets on the Nikishin contract. As we discussed earlier, Nikishin's 'bonuses' are by requirement 'challenging to earn'. If you are going to burn the first year of the entry level deal, Type A entry level performance bonuses are impossible to earn and just...

Snipping from the CBA available on NHLPA.com 10.1 Unrestricted Free Agents. (a) Group 3 Players and Free Agents. (i) Any Player who either has seven (7) Accrued Seasons or is 27 years of age or older as of June 30 of the end of a League Year, shall, if his most recent SPC has expired, with...

We are the worst playoff team in the Eastern conference, by a long shot, according to PK Subban. No Necas no Rantanen, crappy goaltending. In his world the Rangers should be given our spot and we should just go home.

The KHL is arguably the 2nd best professional league in the world. Nikishin has been one of the top 3 (if not the top) Dman in the KHL for 3 seasons running. He has been SKA St. Petersburg's captain for 3 seasons (Putin's favorite team). Now of course the NHL is a whole different animal...

Does anyone think Burns is going to play beyond this season? I'm assuming he is retiring once this season is done, so Kessel's record is safe.

Look at Tulsky playing the crowd! The bad news for Nikishin is that the expectation levels are going to be extremely high from the fanbase. The good news is that he is coming to the Canes and not Toronto or NY.

Flyers effectively drive the final nail into the Rangers coffin at MSG tonight. 8-5 the final. Happy times for Rangers fans and their organization (happier times for the rest of us! :D

There is a point where the 'Canes have nothing to play for' clashes with 'you don't want to enter the playoffs on a massive losing streak and completely forget how to win'. We are getting close to the point where a massive losing streak entering the playoffs might be really bad news. Limping...

I would like to see Bissonnette and our 'cheap' owner get together to talk about the affiliation. We have enough lower level Russian prospects to field almost an entire ECHL roster.

Vlad Guerrero Jr just turned 26 this past March. He just seems like he must be older because he became a MLB regular as a 20 year old.

There really is almost nothing to negotiate beyond the burning of the first year of his entry level deal. Nikishin should be treated as if he is a top 3 overall pick as far as the max entry level salary, signing bonus, and entry level bonuses. All of that has clearly defined minimums and...

Robidas' NHL career path with the Canes has a Logan Stankoven problem.

Chicago Wolves last week: Apr 2 @Grand Rapids W 4-3 Martin with the win. Slavin, Jaaska, Nadeau and Robidas with the Goals Apr 5 @Manitoba W 4-3(OT) Tokarski with the win. Fensore, Slavin, Smith (OT winner) and Nadeau with the goals Apr 6 @Manitoba W 3-2 Martin with the win. Fensore, Suzuki...

Canes prospects through 04/06/2025: Nikita Artamonov W (2nd Round 2024 KHL Nizhny Novgorod/VHL Gorky NN): With KHL Nizhny Novgorod: 63 Games 22 Goals 17 Assists +5 *** PLAYOFFS: 4 Games 0 Goals 0 Assists Even Nizhny Novgorod was eliminated in their first round series 0-4 With VHL Gorky NN...

I ended up having to watch the FanDuel Detroit feed last night. Their TV announcers are absolute homers, it was very annoying. If I hear the Canes have all but locked up the 2nd spot in the Metro one more time... We haven't yet. And we better not assume teams like Detroit or even the...

That has been available all season but not all the way up to 5PM day of game.

Better suggestion, lots of early Canes goals.

I would definitely say Nadeau is looking like a potential Top 6 forward and Morrow a Top 4 D. Unger Sorum is definitely a maybe top 6 guy :) If you squint really hard and have a huge amount of faith, Joel Nystrom MIGHT be an NHL 3rd pair guy.

Canes are allowing STMs to sell their tickets back to the Canes for account credit up until 5PM today, likely in hopes there will be enough people willing to buy those tickets again off of Ticketmaster for the extremely inflated dynamic prices that the Canes have cooked up. The price for the...
