Cole: It appears as though Erik Cole is going to be the odd man out in Carolina this year. Cole had a disappointing season and an even more disappointing playoffs. Carolina has a number of unrestricted and restricted free agents and it doesn't appear as though Cole is a priority.
Jmess: I am pretty much ready just to go out and say Cole won't be with the Hurricanes next year. He also is in line for a pay cut since he just hasn't been the same player since his neck injury. Some one will pick him up just to early to really know who is interested, I can probably guess that the Oilers aren't.
The Canes would be really stupid if they let their Eric Staal catalyst go....
ReplyDeleteBut Cole's playoff performance was dreadful.
