The Hurricanes don’t need to look at Vancouver for inspiration when they did the same thing with the Staal brothers. 

Ok. I agree with that, but it isn’t do or die for anyone other than Green. 
I’d rather wait and maximize value if no one blows them away with an offer.  I’m also leery of salary retention for future seasons with as poorly as management has handled the cap the last few years 

Why would Tatar and Nyquist have less value at next years deadline than today?  All of the trades made so far have been for players with expiring deals. 

It could always be that he doesn't want to lose leverage by saying they'd like to make a trade. He also said he wouldn't trade assets to protect anyone, he didn't say they wouldn't trade assets to get rid of someone. Just playing devils advocate. 

Since Bert and Larkin didn't have they're first full pro season until 15-16 they are clear. Mantha and AA are not.

While we're at it, waive Pavel. The guy hasn't even scored a goal yet. So much for a playmaker.

No, I don't think they're playing well. But firing a coach 10 games into his NHL career seems rash. Back to the point I was making, he hasn't had one of the best players on the team and several key players have already missed time due to injury.
It wouldn't be fair to fire a guy before he's given a chance to prove himself with the full roster.

Funny thing with THN is they don't even have him in the Wings top ten prospects. Not a very good list, at least with their order, if you ask me.

2020? Are we really 6 years away from seeing a contender? They may not win the SC before then, but I surely hope they contend before then.

Always nice to see a success story. Hopefully he keeps up the good work!!

lol iginla got owned by the hit and the fight

You have to remember that we are still in a lockout shortened and affected season. In a normal year, the Finals would have ended three weeks ago.
