Can't Preach It Enough: This Year's Going To Be Quite The Praise-Worthy Year For Carolina

Down I-85 in Raleigh I hope people will start paying attention to the Hurricanes.  The addition of Scott Darling as our new starting goalie, Justin Faulk leading our stellar young defensemen (Slavin, Pesce, Hanifin, and Fleury), and adding Trevor van Riemsdyk as depth defense that was desperately needed, the Hurricanes are on the cusp of being back in the playoffs after what seems like forever.  The NHL draft is tomorrow and even after a few trades there are a good number of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round picks.  Now would be a good time to hop on the bandwagon.  If all three Carolina teams don't make it to the playoffs this year I will be greatly disappointed.

Thought van Riemsdyk got picked up by the Golden Knights in the expansion draft

He was. Carolina then traded a 2nd round pick they got from Pittsburgh (pick #62) to Las Vegas for van Riemsdyk and a 7th round pick in 2018.

Monk at 11 is a steal IMO. Much better than Fox at 4.

The worst part of being a Charlotte sports fan is how so much of this fanbase refuses to get excited about anything. Great offseason for all three pro teams.

Is this what the huddle is reduced to in the month long lull before training camp? Maybe i should just go on hiatus until late July haha

I get on once every few days. It's awesome I can spend time with my cats and plot against my enemies.

Would have been amusing if you didn't steal all your puns from twitter..you think nobody else on here follows Voth and Rodrigue?
