Wonderful player and a great signing. The only thing that could possibly hold him back is his weight. Good thing that part of North Carolina has lots of great restaurants!

this is great, but I feel like they wasted the year of his contract. They had to sign Morrow, but they could sign Blake to 3-year next season.

Great player, great signing. Not so worried about his size, he is pretty sturdy on his skates…and isn’t shy in front of net.

And just like that, the Canes get ANOTHER top prospect under contract. In Blake's DY, he was playing High School hockey before he ended the season with the Chicago Steel, which is just a huge testament to the talent on the Canes scouting staff. Blake is a LEGIT prospect, getting him in the 4th round and now securing him with a contract was huge for Carolina. Their future is genuinely incredible, what a fantastic move.

Interesting that this isnt a future ELC. Not convinced he's going to be a guy the Canes lean on in the playoffs, maybe he gets a few games down the stretch just for the sake of getting him playing. Regardless, this is a great signing

I'm not worried about it either... he reminds me a lot of his new teammate Seth Jarvis

Not only that…he was barred from playing varsity hockey in Minnesota in his Sophomore year until end of January since he changed High Schools very late in the process (when he didn’t make NTDP, he returned home from Shattuck). And he didn’t play senior year…so it was just his junior season (and half of sophomore season).

Doesn't the contract slide a year if he plays less than 10 games?

No because he's 20, contracts slide if you're under 20
