Oooo ... so do I, actually. We were gonna go but decided against it. Anybody who wants a free premier pass, hit me up.
Mine is only general.

Carolina Hurricanes 2023-24 season preview
Carolina is built for success. No team has a system or identity as strong as what the Hurricanes have maintained year to year.

Roddy was on 850 today, it sounds like Svech will not be ready for the opener next week, you have to wonder if he will be ready for the West Coast swing. Lots of warm bodies like Lemieux or a youngster in his place to start the year if that ends up being the case.
And once again ... louder for those in the balcony ... that's fine. When he's actually ready, roll My Svechnikov out to play. Until then, figure it out. Heck, keep Tony Randall up for a few games if ya want.
9 games without burning a year of his contract, right?

I believe they wrote all of the teams' season previews.
I'd be happy with a banner we don't have yet, but that sucker can be a millstone in the playoffs.For those with subscriptions to The Athletic, you can read how we're their pick for the President's Trophy and given the third highest chance at winning the Cup...

Canes placed Caleb Jones on waivers.
All of Zach Aston-Reese, Kieffer Bellows, Cory Conacher, Brendan Perlini. Nick Shore and Nathan Beaulieu were released from their PTOs.
We loaned Alexsi Heimosalmi to his Lliga team (Assat)
Jamieson Rees was assigned to AHL Springfield
Ronan Seeley, Griffin Mendel, Anttoni Honka, Justin Robidas, Blake Murray and Noel Gunler were all assigned to ECHL Norfolk.
---As for the rest of the players unlikely to stick around too much longer---
I assume Yanev Perets will be Norfolk bound soon. Fensore also will likely be joining Norfolk shortly.
Suzuki and Ponomarev will eventually end up in the AHL "somewhere"
Unger Sorem will eventually head back to Sweden.
What happens to Coghlan and Kochetkov remains to be seen. We have enough roster space currently to carry both of them on the roster, but that would mean 12 forwards (without Svech) 8 Dmen and 3 goalies on the roster. That also assumes that Caleb Jones is either being claimed off of waivers or is going to clear and be shipped out to some AHL team TBD.

Coghlan needs to just go away…but count me in the camp that thinks not having at the very least a shared AHL affiliate is really dumb. For all the things Dundon has done that makes sense that one just makes no sense.

Fine by me - let him wait. Ain't no rush.

It wasn't his call.
There are 32 AHL teams for 32 NHL teams, but one of them wants to be independent.
And the AHL wasn’t interested in expanding to 33 teams.
The Canes will meet with the AHL Board of Governors this month. The BOG isn’t happy with the situation either, but they let the Wolves go independent.

I wish nothing but complete failure for that franchise.
Summarizing the feelings of the fans of virtually every other NHL franchise that has affiliated with the Wolves. Ownership there quite literally doesn't understand the role of a minor league franchise.
