This is probably the year to do it. There’s not really a clear best team in the east. It can certainly be them. They’re good offensively, defensively and analytics. They’ve been pretty patient up until now. The prospect pool is still pretty good to use as potential trade bait. I think the time is ripe.

Morrow, Artamanov, + 1st and you guys can have the JT Miller chant.

To put into perspective the offensive boost that Miller offers, this is the first season in five years where any Carolina Hurricane player is on pace to outscore JT Miller in a season.
