On the flip side it will have the team that drafted and willfully employs Tom Wilson so... maybe.

Pretty encouraging to see Drury playing at over a point per game pace so far.
some nice prospect porn in that video. 0:42 Adam Fox takes the puck and roofs it from a sharp angle. then shortly after Drury gets leveled in the neutral zone, before tucking one in on the power play.

How come Arizona State has a big time college hockey program and the Triangle doesn't?

They’re only in their 4th season too and they now have a respectable hockey program.
It’d be amazing to get State, UNC, & Duke onboard for some NCAA hockey. The NC State vs UNC backyard brawls already draw like 3,500-4,000 people, and it’s club hockey.
Plus I think getting competitive college hockey would be a great way to grow the interest of the game in the Triangle. But I know this will never happen.

The simple answer is: Title IX
The complex answer is that shouldn't stop them but there would be a requirement to add a women's sport with as many scholarship opportunities.
They'd also need a new facility. NCSU club team plays some at PNC, but mostly at the Iceplex which doesn't have adequate seating.
I've often thought adding a D1 program to NCSU would be a nice fit with youth hockey growing well in the area...but the AD would need to be a advocate and they'd need some serious financing (a la Pegula at PSU).
Title IX would be a consideration too, but a women's team would be doable if the backing/financing were there for a men's team.

This is Hurricanes Hockey
I'm excited for Jack Drury. He seems to have a little Erik Cole in his game the times I've watched him in highlights.

Unfortunately the only thing most people care about around here is college football, and even moreso basketball
Women’s hockey has a better chance of becoming a reality before men’s just for that reason.
Women's hockey! If you're going to spend the money to build an NCAA quality rink and programs...might as well get twice the use out of it.

There could be all kinds of activities there too, and all kinds of clubs; curling figure skating speed skating etc

Carolina high on Cotton from Texas
Decent right up on David Cotton. He’s having quite a nice year so far.

Hopefully he keeps playing well and producing and chooses to turn pro with us.

Blowing up at a good time, starting to look like a guy we definitely would sign. Hopefully we’ve given him enough attention that he wants to give a go with us, seems like we’ve gone our part.
Consistent production had been an issue, not this year obviously.

I hope he makes it so I can use quotes from hank hill's dad all the time
What are the chances that Necas plays at the WJCs for the Czech Republic? I am asking from a Colorado perspective as Kaut apparently will play and it would be nice if he has some elite forward talent to play with. I am assuming the Chytil is out of the picture.
At this point the chances are high he will be allowed to go to the WJC. Only way I see Necas not being released is if they call him up to the NHL and he starts piling up points.
Canes want to boost Necas’s confidence and get him big minutes. WJC should provide both.

They also want him learning to play on North American ice surfaces. We haven’t been in this situation with Vellucci in charge of development so I’m guessing he’s the guy the brain trust will rely the most heavily on.

I hope Necas plays at the WJC. Playing for national pride often helps players. My guess is the extra coaching is also valuable as having someone explain technical adjustments in your native tongue must be at least a little more efficient.

So as of now we have:
Slavin/ Hamilton
de Haan/ Faulk
TVR/ Pesce
In the system D with high potential: Fleury, Bean, Sellgren, Fox and Martin. Next few years gonna be interesting. A lot of changes could happen. Big fan of Bean, Sellgren and Fox.
