Carolina had three players pass the 60 point plateau in the 67 games they played this season, but no one else hit the 40 point mark among the forwards. Only Martin Necas and Warren Foegele have hit 30 points. So, it’s clear that Carolina needs another top 6 forward to help take the weight off the big three the Carolina Hurricanes have.
There’s a variety of options in free agency for the Hurricanes to choose from. From pure scorers to genuine play-makers, to even one elite talent that Carolina may need to work some magic to get, but it’s a possibility.
