I have no problem with management signing komisarek like this. Because at 700k, he can ride pine. Its nearly league minimum. The only potential problem is with coaching misusing him. Like larose on the first line.

True, but hopefully

He played his best hockey under Muller. This won't be an issue. Muller is probably the biggest reason he is here.

Edit. lol, what Vulcan said.

Also pitkanen is fucking awesome

Overrated? Lazy as fuck? Get out of here with that shit. He's not a number one d man and when we put him in situations where he doesn't have to be, he is great. Especially considering that we have him on a steal of a contract for a dman with his skillset.

Hope he comes back from injury ok, that shit looked nasty

^^^ not saying it will happen, but that's the only situation where this is a bad thing.

7/5/2013 4:25:01 PM

Was puzzled by Komisarek until I heard the number. Perfect deal.

7/5/2013 4:34:30 PM

As much as I want to get excited about Khudobin as a strong backup, it's going to be a real different game with our D in front of him instead of Boston's.

Still, for the $1.5 million we spent today, it was a pretty good day for us. Harrison/Komisarek should be a great bottom pairing.

Jagr?

Chara

(in my dreams)

Jagr has been the rumor

7/9/2013 5:34:08 PM

Jagr would be cool, even though he's an old man. Probably help sell a few tickets.

7/9/2013 6:39:12 PM

If its jagr, me thinks Ray Whitney had a hand in this

dobby was a little shaky at the start of last season but once he played enough games to get confident he was pretty good. I mean sure playing behind the bruin's d helps, but he bailed them out plenty. I think if you give him enough games he'll do well for you. pretty good price too.

7/9/2013 8:25:03 PM

Game over for the franchise with new divisions. Playing behind pitt phi wsh nyr nyi forever now. No more playoffs.

7/10/2013 5:10:41 PM

Yes because all 5 of those teams have been consistently dominant over the last couple of decades

[Edited on July 10, 2013 at 6:12 PM. Reason : .]

7/10/2013 6:12:14 PM

Yeah but theres five of them so 2 could b3 down and were still screwed.

7/10/2013 6:16:22 PM

Up to five teams from one division could make the playoffs.

I should also remind everyone that we are in fact as it stands spending very close to the salary cap.

7/10/2013 6:20:57 PM

Don't know how you list NYI as a dominant team..

7/10/2013 7:09:33 PM

I hope you people will tune into the summerfest streaming practices this week, I've learned more about our system in the past couple weeks than ever. Should be some good shows, I hope.

signed Lindholm

Rutherford could be trying to make a trade to get Ron Hainsey.

JR says he's fine

7/19/2013 9:29:21 AM

Schedule is out and we open up Friday, October 4 at home against Detroit. http://hurricanes.nhl.com/club/schedule.htm

We are in the "Metropolitan" Division. Pacific, Central, Atlantic, and Metropolitan. lol. I kinda like it.

[Edited on July 19, 2013 at 1:20 PM. Reason : .]

Yeah I don't really give a shit about the division name, I could take it or leave it. My season long boycott of attending games is over, and it's time to start combing the schedule for road trip possibilities.

7/19/2013 1:45:11 PM

i thought they were getting rid of the divisions and just going to have 2 conferences where you played everyone the same number of times?

7/19/2013 2:54:00 PM

that's what i thought.

7/19/2013 3:57:34 PM

Sabres only visit once this year

7/19/2013 4:26:10 PM

That's a good thing.

7/19/2013 5:47:28 PM

Lol JR fucked up another draft/ offseason. The Cup win should give him enough leverage for another 5 or 6 years of playoffless hockey though.

7/19/2013 6:35:15 PM

Did he

7/19/2013 7:08:21 PM

Yeah...he should have fired last year.

You've got guys who will likely make teams taking two-way deals for league minimum. LaRose is done.

7/30/2013 12:40:30 PM

He'll either get a near league minimum two-way contract with a shitty team or he's gone to Europe.

7/30/2013 1:20:21 PM

can't believe he lasted in Carolina as long as he did. Flabbergasted

7/30/2013 2:43:24 PM

Brent went to the KHL as well. A part of me feels bad for those guys that'll go to the middle of nowhere Russia to play. Must be miserable. Except for the money, of course.
