Canes Out But Not Down

The Wings proved they were too much for the Canes this year. But I really think the Canes will be able to keep this team together for the most part and make a Cup contending team for many years to come. The young guys like Cole, Svoboda and Vasicek now have invaluable playoff experience. Core players like Brind'Amour and Irbe will be here for a while. Hopefully they won't have any problems re-signing restricted free agents O'Neill, Kapanen, K. Adams, Tanabe, Ward... I don't think they will. The biggest concern in my mind is unrestricted free agent Bret Hedican. He's gonna have a lot of teams flashing a lot of money in his face. He's expressed that he'd like to stay in Raleigh.... He & his wife (Kristi Yamaguchi) love the area. He said the Canes' fans are the best in the NHL. I hope that'll be enough to convince him to stay.

The big news is that Ron Francis is coming back for at least one more year! I know he wouldn't come back if he thought this team was going to be a failure next year.

Alright.... I know most of you guys prob could care less about my ramblings on about hockey! I'll shut up now.... well just one more thing.... Canes ==> CUP IN 2003!!!!
