Martin played well last night.  Koochie played all world tonight. Necas with 4 points was to me the 2nd star. But Koochie was the reason we won.  

Marty was involved in EVERY Canes goal... 

 

Dude is a Hart contender.. .

 

Koooochiekov made of for putting us down 1-0 MARTY MADE THE REST HAPPEN

Luckily I think we could have close to $30mil in cap space next year so it shouldn’t be a problem. I’ll defer to @Anybodyhomefor the stats and cap numbers 

Based on the NHL cap today ($88M), the Canes have $22.9M in projected space going into the 25-26 season. Seems to be a consensus the cap will increase to $92.5M next season, but let's not assume.

The core of this team is locked up for a couple more years, with the only UFAs at the end of this season: Roslovic, Fast, Robinson, Jost, with Orlov and Burns on D.

Remember Seth Jarvis's contract? Remember the press it got because the Canes found a loophole that allowed them to get his contract under the cap by using "deferred salary?" Yeah, don't expect that won't be addressed by the league and that loophole closed. That being said, if the Canes decide to sign Necas long term, they should do it next season and they'll probably need to pay him Aho level money- close to $10M a year.

Let's assume the team gets through the season without any career or long term injury concerns. And, let's be honest in the conversation. Does Jesper Fast have a place on this team right now or have we found the right combination on the ice that he may not be needed? 

Does Brent Burns retire, or will he decide to stay another year? If so, there's a 1-year thank you for your service $6M deal. 

If Roslovic shows out this year, that's gonna be a pretty big contract compared to the 1-year, $2.8M he's getting now. He may command around $4.5 - 5M to stay.

So, those 2 guys are gonna cost you $11M. Get Necas a new deal at $10M, you're up to $14.5M of the $22.9M in space. So you've got about $8.4M to work in Orlov and Robinson, which is do-able.

Plenty of room to work deals and keep every one of the UFAs if the Canes so desire.

Excellent analysis, is Freddie's contract up this year? if so we need another goalie to come out of the cap space.

Well said. Where would Nikishin fit into these numbers?

      Updated 2025 draft order

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      See my post above. We tankers get all the you aren’t a fan of you want to get a higher draft pick but damn we’ve given up generational talent because of some meaningless wins coupled with even worse drafting/trading of picks. The “real” fans can’t seem to get that we are two wins in 2019/2020 away from having Herbert throwing to Chase every week and still having CMC and Moore along with the picks we wasted on Corral, Darnold and Young. We’d be a solid playoff team even with Rhule and Fitterer.

      But those late wins helped the culture

      Updated 2025 draft order

      It is all about who picks the best but that’s a bit obvious. Also, below are a few examples right out of our own draft picks showing where having a better pick is very meaningful. There are plenty of idiots like Chicago, Cleveland and the Jets, who like us, take a Young over Stroud. That said, having the top pick did mean it was our choice. If we picked Stroud, Houston was screwed for not moving up but we had a guy named Fo Anyway, here are the very recent Panther examples: 2020 - We had 1 too many wins so we got Derrick Brown 1 pick after Herbert. Brown is a solid player and I’m glad to have him, but let’s be honest that Herbert would have been much, much better and we would have skipped over the travesty of trading away CMC for nothing, giving away DJ Moore and trading the farm for Young. One draft slot away from an entirely different NFL team. 2021 - We had 1 too many wins so we got Horn instead of all pro tackle Sewell, all pro WR Chase or choosing to trade pick 3 (one less win and we got there) to SF for 3 firsts and I think 1 third. Horn is a good CB, but our team would have been much better with Chase, Sewell or all the 1sts. 2022 - Great end of the year run due to an easy schedule and not tanking for a QB by trading Burns to the Rams, Moore to the Packers and others. We all know what happened here and damn would it have been nice to have say Arizona’s pick and watch Houston choose Young!
