StormWatch: A Way-Too-Early Roster Prediction for the Hurricanes
July 14, 2024 by Zach Martin
The hockey world is officially in the part of summer where the news slows down considerably after a hectic couple of weeks with the 2024 NHL Entry Draft and free agency being so close together. Now fans are just waiting nervously if their team will make any moves over the next few weeks before training camps start in September. However, the 2024-25 schedules are officially out so that will be a topic of discussion for some fanbases.
Regarding the Carolina Hurricanes and their fans, the main concern is the three restricted free agents (RFA) of Seth Jarvis, Martin Necas, and Jack Drury. According to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, the only recent news on Necas and Drury is that they filed for arbitration. However, for weeks it seemed that Necas was going to be a part of a trade, now, it looks like the forward might stay in Carolina depending on another possible bridge deal. If he does sign an extension along with Jarvis and Drury, what could the 2024-25 Carolina Hurricanes look like on opening night on Oct. 11 versus the Tampa Bay Lightning?
