Canes Corner | Carolina Hurricanes podcast from 99.9 The Fan

Sebastian Aho's second overtime winner of the season gave the Canes a 4-3 win over the Canucks. Carolina closes out the road trip 5-1-0 with a 4th straight win. Martin Necas had a goal and an assist (on the Aho game-winner) and has three multi-point games in the last four. Williams Carrier had his first goal with the Hurricanes and Jack Roslovic scored his 4th of the season. Carolina will return home to play Boston on Halloween. 

The Canes continued their road trip dominance, flying past the Kraken, 4-1.  Andrei Svechnikov scored a first period power play goal -- the 5th straight game in which the Canes have connected with the man advantage -- and Frederik Andersen made 18 saves as the Canes won for the 5th time in their last 6 games.  Jack Drury, Seth Jarvis and Dimitry Orlov also tallied goals for the Hurricanes who raised their record to 5-2-0 on the season.  Andersen won for the 3rd time, and improved to a 1.48 GAA/.941 SV% in 4 starts.  

Martin Necas' 100th career goal highlighted the Canes' 4-2 win in Calgary. Carolina got a power play goal from Seth Jarvis and goals from Jack Roslovic and Eric Robinson in winning for the 4th time in their last 5 games. Pyotr Kochetkov stopped 30 shots for his 2nd win. The Canes scored a power play goal for the 4th straight game and shut down the Flames' two chances with the mad advantage. Carolina is 4-2-0 on the year and will travel to meet Seattle on Saturday night.

Sebastian Aho's goal with seven seconds left in overtime pushed the Canes to a 3-2 win in Edmonton. Shayne Gostisbehere and Martin Necas each scored in the 3rd period as Carolina rallied from a 2-0 deficit after 40 minutes. Ghost, who notched his 3rd power play goal of the season, has now scored in 4 straight games. Necas' 2nd of the year tied the game with 6 1/2 minutes to play in regulation. Oh, and Frederik Andersen was spectacular in net. 33 saves for his 18th career win over the Oilers. He's 18-2-2 lifetime against them.  

The Canes scored twice on the power play, were perfect on the penalty kill and got solid goaltending from Frederik Andersen in a convincing win over the Penguins. Sixty four seconds after Drew O'Connor gave the Pens a 1-0 lead, Carolina rookie Jackson Blake brought the Canes even with his second goal of the season. Martin Necas and Shayne Gostisbehere scored power play goals - Carolina's first two of the season - and Jack Roslovic's first goal of the season closed out the scoring. 

The Canes played their game to perfection. The rookie got his first NHL goal. And the Canes beat the Devils for their first win of the season. 

Canes conceded two power play goals to Tampa Bay and dropped the season opening game for the first time in 6 years. 

Yes, Eric Robinson had 2 goals and an assist and Freddie Andersen made 29 saves in just two periods.  But, with the preseason over, it's time to look ahead to the roster decisions and other matters facing the Canes as we head towards the start of the regular season on Friday.

Ghost thrills Canes with OT winner, 2-1. 

Canes fall at home, but Felix Unger-Sorum and Bradly Nadeau hit the scoresheet. 

Sean Walker scored on the power play and added two assists while Seth Jarvis scored twice as Carolina blasted Florida, 8-2. Freddie Andersen started in goal and 15 of Carolina's skaters registered at least one scoring point in the win. 

The Canes open and the preseason campaign and beat Tampa Bay tonight, 2-1. 

The Carolina Hurricanes completed their summer of contract signings with arguably their most important return.  Seth Jarvis, the breakout star of 2024, signed an 8-year extension that will pay him $63.2 million over the life of the contract.  Even though the average number is $7.9 million, the deal will only count for just over $7.4 million against the cap.  I'll explain how, we'll discuss how the team approached the summer and the bad news on Jesper Fast.  

Martin Necas is back with the Canes.  He signed a 2-year deal worth $13 million.  Now what?  And, how does this impact negotiations with Seth Jarvis?  

Busy week for the Hurricanes.  Evgeny Kuznetsov is heading back to Russia.  Jack Drury agreed to a 2-year deal.  Negotiations continue with Seth Jarvis.  And what is the status of Jesper Fast?  All that and more in a very quick session.

Nick Bass jumps aboard to talk Canes prospects.  Appriopriate as he is the man behind @Canesprospects and covers them for Dobber Hockey.  Plus, my thoughts on Martin Necas future with the Hurricanes and how they might have to pay for the restricted free agent trio (w/Seth Jarvis and Jack Drury).

The Jake Guentzel contract fell apart as did any trade involving Martin Necas.  In addition, when free agency begins Monday at noon, the expectation is that -- soon to be former -- Hurricanes players will come flying off the board, from Nashville to Newark.  Why did the Guentzel deal fall apart?  What now?  Plus a look at the Hurricanes draft and some top prospects with North American Central Scouting's Mark Seidel

With just hours until the NHL draft and days until free agency begins the Carolina Hurricanes have a LOT of business to do.  Will they sign Jake Guentzel?  What about Jordan Martinook?  Will Seth Jarvis get a long term contract or will the can be kicked down the road?  If Martin Necas is traded what do they need in return?  So many questiions and so little time to get answers.  

The Hurricanes appear ready to name Eric Tulsky as their next General Manager.  What does that mean for Carolina's offseason business?  What is next for the Canes and Martin Necas?  What should the free agent priorities be?  Adam Gold is joined by Canes Country staff writer Al Hood to discuss.

Canes President and General Manager Don Waddell resigned his position on Friday.  The team named Eric Tulsky as the interim General Manager.  The move by Waddell comes at a difficult time for the Hurricanes with 11 free agents and other decisions that need to be made before the draft which is one month away.  Adam is joined by The Athletic's Cory Lavalette to discuss.

After (finally) signing a multi-year contract with the Caroling Hurricanes, Head Coach Rod Brind’Amour talks with Adam Gold about how this season ended and where things are headed next season.

What’s keeping Rod here with the Carolina Hurricanes? Which player in particular does Rod mention not being able to see NOT coaching? Looking back, would Rod have changed anything? What were Rod’s conversations with Sebastian Aho since the Game 6 loss? Did Rod consider making a goalie switch when Game 6 went to 3-2? Adam asks about players like: Seth Jarvis, Andrei Svechnikov, Jordan Martinook, etc and what he thought about their seasons and future. What’s the next step for Svech? How important is it to Rod to keep THIS player on the roster?

This conversation originally aired Monday, May 20, 2024 on The Adam Gold Show.

Canes can't hold 3-1, 3rd period lead and the run ends with a 5-3 loss in Game 6. Martin Necas, Seth Jarvis and Sebastian Aho each scored as the Hurricanes built a 3-1 lead through 2 periods. But, Frederik Andersen allowed a terrible goal to Chris Kreider early in the 3rd period and the floodgates opened. Kreider netted two more, completing the natural hat trick in a span of 8:58 of the third. Vincent Trochek and Barclay Goodrow also scored for New York who ended the series with Carolina at PNC Arena for the second time in 3 years. 

Jordan Staal's 1st goal of the playoffs, 3 1/2 minutes into the 3rd period, tied the game and ignited a 4-goal outburst as the Canes beat the Rangers 4-1 to force a Game 6 back in Raleigh on Thursday. Three minutes later, Evgeny Kuznetsov pounced on a rebound and punched in the go-ahead goal and was followed about 3 1/2 minutes later by Jordan Martinook's wrister from the slot as Carolina went from a goal down to a 2-goal lead in 6:23. Martin Necas drilled one into the empty Rangers net for the final margin. Frederik Andersen made 20 saves in the win. Carolina was 0 for 3 on the power play - and for the second time in the last three games allowed a shorthanded goal. But, the penalty kill, after allowing the Rangers to score 4 times in their first 9 tries, went 3 for 3 tonight. They have now killed off the last 8 New York power plays. 

The Canes scored on the power play?????

Yes they did.  Brady Skjei's power play goal with just over 3 minutes left in the third period gave the Hurricanes a 4-3 win over the Rangers.  Carolina gets to live another day as they force Game 5 in New York on Monday night.  The Canes had been 0 for 16 on the power play in the series and before tonight were -5 on special teams as the Rangers had scored 4 times with the man advantage and added a shorthanded goal in Game 3.  But, Carolina came out flying.  Evgeny Kuznetsov, Stefan Noesen and Sebastian Aho each scored in the first period as they jumped out to a 3-1 lead.  Barclay Goodrow and Alexis Lafreniere would score in the 2nd and 3rd respectively, setting the stage for Skjei's first goal of the playoffs.  Teuvo Teravainen had two assists and Frederik Andersen made 22 saves in the win.

The Canes went 0 for 5 on the power play for the 3rd consecutive game, gave up a shorthanded goal and lost in overtime for the second straight game as they fell to the Rangers, 3-2. The loss puts Carolina one game away from elimination. Game 4 is Saturday night. Jake Guentzel scored for the 2nd straight game as the Hurricanes took a 1-0 lead in a dominant first period. But, Chris Kreider's shorthanded goal midway through the second was the turning point as the Hurricanes special teams woes continued. On the bright side, the penalty kill was a perfect 4 for 4, but they lost the battle having been outscored 1-0 on their own power plays. Svechnikov's second playoff goal tied the game with 1:36 left in the 3rd, but Artemi Panarin's 4th playoff goal came just 1:43 into overtime.
