Description

This is more or less how I expect the Canes off season to look like. A changing of the guard of some sort, losing Teuvo, Pesce, and Skjei but the main core remains in tact; Aho, Svech, Jarvis, Slavin, Necas, and now Guentzel. With all of the ELC signings this week, I have to think the AHL affiliate is figured out. I think Morrow plays with Orlov to help his development, Nadeau plays in the minors in 2024/2025 (along with FUS, Trikozov) and takes Fast's roster spot in 2025-2026. The other Aho is sort of a placeholder for a cheap LD until Nikishin can come over at the end of the season. I see next year as a big transition year for the Canes as the young guys develop and depending on how that goes, we could be competing for a very long time as the cap continues to rise. Losing Skjei and Pesce sucks but the Canes aren't in the cap hell a lot of people on this website are making them out to be.

Additional Details:

KK's value is very hard to gauge currently. He is still a young NHL player that can get better but doesn't fit in the canes lineup or timeline anymore. Would think some rebuilding teams would be interested in a flyer on him since his buyout isn't killer.

Someone is going to overpay chatfield I bet. Love Jake but 9.2 seems a bit high.

Thats a worse team than this year for sure.

Your asking slavin and burns to do a lot of heavy lifting there as thats a pretty weak dcore.

I get that canes fans like chatfield but its easy to look good in a 15 min a night heavily shletered role. Giving him that kind of money at the expense of others like skjei or pesce is a terrible idea especially when aho is also a depth guy and morrow is a major question mark.

If you want to keep martinook offer him less maybe with a extra year. 3x1.5. You cant pay someone like him 2.5. Same with noesen.

You do that and move fast and you can likely keep one of pesce or skjei which makes way more sense.

I definitely agree with you that this team is worse but it will be a transition year in which we should be able to be competitive unless things go extremely bad. Orlov is still playing very well and we aren't going to commit long term money to a 2LD with Nikishin coming over soon although I'd love to somehow keep Skjei. Also agree on money and term regarding Martinook and Noesen, just wanted to retain them and not underpay on the ACGM.
Moving Fast to retain 1 of Pesce or Skjei is definitely a scenario that could happen this off season as well.

5 seems low for Jarvis though even on a bridge... it evens out.

I think one thing to keep in mind looking at that is slavin burns and orlov all only have 1 year. You let pesce and skjei walk you are at risk of losong basically your top 5 in 2 offseasons.

Burns also will be 40 next summer and orlov 34. They might not be the guys they are today by then.

Having one pesce and skjei back atleast helps stabalize that situation.

Canes mgmt deserves a lot of credit - built a competitive team in a small market. But this is their year (hopefully not as a Leafs fan); hard to argue team won’t take a step back next year

This... thats why I think its unlikely Guentzel, Jarvis, and Necas are all back next year. My guess is its two of the three.

Totally agree, on top of this being my prediction on how this off season will turn out, it also highlights the weaknesses that can develop. The main ones being a 2c behind Aho (will Jarvis or Necas eventually move to center or will we need to acquire one?), and RD once Burns retires and Pesce walks. Having Morrow is great but after next season I can see RD and C being an issue.

Definitely concerning. Unfortunately kk obviously didnt take care of that 2c issue and necas has kinda passed that point in his career to move him there so it defaults to jarvis which makes for a very small top 2 centres.

It wouldn't shock me if they move necas and then try and find a different solution at C. You kinda have to do that or roll the dice again with kk and see if the play he had to start the year can be replicated.
