Canes Corner | Carolina Hurricanes podcast from 99.9 The Fan Capitol Broadcasting

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.
