If it were me I'd try to sign with a team that needs me. I don't know if he'd make the Canes any time soon but who knows.

N-E-P-O-T-I-S-M, what does that spell?

Nepotism!!

nope

N-E-P-O-T-I-S-M, what does that spell?

Nepotism!!

wouldn't this be the opposite?
Nepotism would be Rod seeking out Skyler but this looks to be Skyler seeking to play for his dad
The kid is good enough that most teams would give him a shot. So its not like he doesn't have options

Cmon don't make me go to Tenor and search for a "gullible" gif too.

Is a 24 year old college player really thread worthy just because of who his dad is?

 

[Chrispy]

If he wants the quickest path to the NHL, it's unlikely to be in Carolina with Aho, Kotkaniemi, and likely Staal down the middle. Skylar would be competing against any possible 2C acquisition and Carolina's prospects (Ponomarev seems most likely to move up) for a spot next year.

There is probably someone who needs a young 4th line C next season more than Carolina does right now.

 

[NHL Fanatik]

I doubt he sticks in the NHL at all let alone Carolina

 

[sting101]

Carolina stealing all of Edmontons best players

 

[carl jung]

for everyone complaining about Nepotism… where have you been ? Hockey is the sport that contains the most of it. you would be amazed how much of an old boys club it is

 

[PensandCaps]

N-E-P-O-T-I-S-M, what does that spell?

Nepotism!!

How is it nepotism if other teams want him aswell? Seems like he earned his spot here.

 

[Lacaar]

No denying the risk of drafting American college players by Canadian franchises.

I'd be interested to see a distribution graph among college UFA signings of Drafted players returning after 4 years. Then assign impact they've had as well.

My gut feels there'd be a significant advantage to some eastern seaboard teams. Something the NHL has absolutely no issue with. There's no secret where the population of North America is densest. And when it comes to sports there's no denying population density plays a massive role.

I wasn't complaining, I was just cheerleading.

C-H-E-E-R-L-E-A-D-I-N-G, what does that spell?

Cheerleading!!

As long as he doesn’t write a “There’s no place like home” I’m fine with it.

Man I am 0 for 2 on these spelling brain teasers. Can you give me some easier ones?

 

[Three On Zero]

Tough for the less desirable markets when you’re a player who has insight that other teams are interested in you.

Would be interesting to see some compensation for players who refuse to sign, an extra 7th round pick

 

[al secord]

A boy named Skyler

Should have signed Walt Jr instead.

Not everything has to be a shot against Edmonton. Grow up.

He already stated it’s due to opportunity.
