After a season of great success, the Hurricanes are at a crossroads this summer. With the player that was the second-line center last year becoming a pending unrestricted free agent, decisions need to be made about the Hurricanes’ second-line center. There are thee in-house options and those are what are worth looking at as of right now because the free-agent market is completely unpredictable.
Carolina’s second-line center is going to be very important moving forward. They’re going to need to be able to play in all situations under pressure in the playoffs at the highest level and give the team a chance to win when the team needs them to in order to be successful in this setup for the long term.
