All things considered it's a bit weird one of the top prospect in the league drafted 5 years ago only had 18 pages of discussions... Like if that guy was Habs or Leafs property, we'd be well into Chapter 3
He was drafted back in 2020. Kids from the CHL would be done their ELC this season to kind of show how time flies.
 
Honestly not familiar enough league wide to comfortably say st the moment, maybe the loss of Skjei and Pesce has swung my view too far in the negative direction. Most fans on our group will tell you they don’t really love our group of six, but we’ve been spoiled lately.

Canes fans are just spoiled. We have a pretty great top-6, especially accounting for Ghost-Walker being well above replacement for a 3rd pairing when it comes to even-strength advanced metrics. Also, even with their flaws and tendency to turn over pucks, both Burns and Orlov still move and play the puck at an above-average rate and are not pylons, by any means.
