If you were away for the weekend, this page that always has a chronological list of articles is a great way to browse what you missed and catch up.

After a busy three weeks capped off by an eventful Saturday, we are unfortunately nearing the doldrums of the hockey summer. But the positive for Hurricanes fans is that Francis just might have an interesting combination of needs, budget and some really high-end opportunities that could still come into play, so we have reason to stay tuned. And even if we ever don’t, we assure you that we will still find topics to bandy around in The Coffee Shop.

If you missed it over the weekend, I suggest checking in on the special Saturday Coffee Shop focused solely on Justin Williams signing.

Today’s Coffee Shop will forge forward and consider what might or might not be left on Ron Francis’ to-do list for the summer. Maybe after you vote/comment, check out also today’s Daily Cup of Joe which is a companion for the Monday Coffee Shop.

Discussion questions

 

1) If you could add one more player (within reason) via free agency or trade, what position and/or type of player would he be? Specifically, who would you target?

2) What are your thoughts on entering the 2017-18 season with the current roster? Has the team improved enough? What are the team’s potential Achilles’ heels?

3) Of the free agent signings and trades across the NHL, if you could steal one deal, which one would it be?

 

Go Canes!
