Isles fan coming in peace! Is Hanifin a lock to be a Cane this year, or is it more dependent on his camp? Would like to catch him in a game when I head down to N. Carolina this winter.

He'd pretty much have to play his way off the team, and they don't have any contingency plan. Barring some sort of injury, I'd expect him to play the full year here.
Minor correction: he'll play every game until his season-ending injury in November which leads to Josh Wesley being a full time NHL'er because this... is Hurricanes hockey.
EStaal-Rask-Lindholm (if Peters really wants it this way)
Skinner-JStaal-Versteeg
Gerbe - Nash - Nestrasil
McGinn-McClement-Terry
Hainsey-Faulk
Hanifin-Wisniewski
Liles-Murphy
Jordan
Läck/Wardo
I might be crazy but this actually looks pretty good.

I have no idea how things will shake out, but we're probably more likely to see Nestrasil on the 4th line than Gerbe. For one, it'd require Gerbe playing out of position, and for two, Nestrasil actually played there last year while I'm not sure Gerbe has in his entire tenure here.

I agree, and I think the distinctions between what is the 3rd and 4th line will be blurred. Gerbe-Nash-Terry is a horrible 3rd line, and Malone-MCClement-Nestrasil is probably an above average 4th.

why did we sign terry to a one-way deal
That 4th line looks like a 4th line on a Stanley Cup team, but I wouldn't say they are above average as all those guys shouldn't be playing on the 3rd line.
I know Peters said he wants to try Staal, Rask, Lindholm, but maybe a better option would be:
Staal-Staal-Versteeg
Skinner-Rask-Lindholm
Gerbe-Nash-Nestrasil/Terry

If only we had bought out Ward instead of Semin.

so much better
They were pretty much done with negotiations on a two-way deal, but Francis knew damn well that this team isn't deep enough to send Terry back to Charlotte, so at the last moment he showed off and wrote "one way" at the top and threw the pen down on the desk like a boss.
semin is going to score 60 points this year and he would have done it here too
