Might as well take advantage of your famous dad's career if you aren't good enough to have one yourself I guess, ha ha.

So because a team that is lacking AHL center depth or bottom 6 depth in crazy injury conditions says that we’ll give you a 2 way deal if you get out of your AHL deal is fishy just because of his last name?

It kind of is if there are better players out there to fill that role. I wouldn't use the term "fishy" though, because we all know what's going on here.

Oh come on now... it happens everywhere. It's rampant in many industries, including hockey. Let's not pretend that it isn't.

I'm not sure why canes fans feel the need to defend the nepotism. It's not a big deal or surprising as it happens all over the league, but it still is nepotism.

I mean it would be an AHL signing, so who cares, really.

If anything, I think it would be funny to do this and make the Wolves play him after everything that went down the last time they were our affiliate. Would be a proper "I'm in charge now" move for the Canes.
