Slavin 5th, Dougie 7th in the Norris. Would have been interesting to see where Dougie landed if not injured. Still wouldn't have won it, but I bet he'd have been higher.

Wasn't Dougie on pace for maybe getting 30 goals? Wouldn't that have pretty much make him a shoe-in for winning if he pulled that off?
Jake interview. Has high praise for Slavin. Says playing with Pesce allows him to play his best game and talks about how talented Pesce is on the ice. He seems very open to criticism and tough conversations with coaches about his play and accountability.
He was initially nervous about coming to the Canes but really likes the team. Talks quite a bit about his current training and youth hockey experience.
Thanks for posting.
A couple of other things I noted. First, one of his vets that really took him under his wing (so to speak) and helped him was JM Liles. IIRC, it was Liles that was paired with Pesce that first year and kind of took Pesce under his wing as well. Secondly, Gardiner is a Green Bay Packers fan, so I like him.
Well, he was a Bruins player living in Toronto for such a long time, so this checks out.a packers fan living in the twin cities? maybe jake likes hate.

Basically Horny had his Pens gear somewhat spread out in his driveway which a neighbor took a picture of. A pretty nothing thing since it's not like it was in the trash or being burnt or anything like that.What was it he was responding to? The tweet is unavailable now.
Tier 3: The Middleweights
12. Carolina Hurricanes
Total: 18
The Hurricanes have built up a point total in these standings through high-impact playoff appearances. Until this year, when the Hurricanes get a shot in the postseason, they made the most of it. This will be a fascinating offseason for the Hurricanes, a franchise looking to upgrade its goaltending, but they should be positioned to make another run in the future.
Total playoff years: 20, 19CF, 09CF, 06SC
I look forward to a couple of those high ones crashing hard. Canes should move up over the next 5 years
No confirmation from team and/or agents, but word is Carolina was willing to look at eight years, $7.5 million per year on an Andrei Svechnikov extension. That’s not low, but the player is willing to bet on himself to do even better, which is why this might end up being a bridge deal — for now.
There’s a legit chance it happens. Columbus, hoping to make a major move, is in there, but is there a match? Same with Carolina.
New Jersey’s 18th and 20th picks are in play. (Not the seventh, I don’t think.) The Devils could do a lot of things: move up, move down or trade for immediate help. If the move is for a player, they are looking for youth (maximum 26) with term or team control. It’s a specific target
