Can you see it? I can. Yaniv Perets in a Greensboro Rivets setup in his AHL debut. Throwback Whaler’s green and blue color scheme. The Greensboro Coliseum is full of old North staters whipped into a frenzy for a North Carolina AHL hockey game.
For the pièce de résistance, Skylar Brind’Amour starting for the Charlotte Checkers on the other side. I’m driving to GSO or Charlotte just to see that.
Even if I have to take off work.
So maybe it isn’t the Greensboro Rivets that Perets is playing for, BUT we can dream.
Wherever the Carolina Hurricanes land their AHL affiliation, the 6’1″ netminder from Dollard-des-Ormeaux, QC, CAN will be a much-needed stalwart in the net.
