Carolina Hurricanes, NHL Free Agency Has Begun

This is that the Adam goals you have financial advisory through capital financial USA.com. This is the Adam Gold show no no no I don't think it's acceptable which I don't think I can. I can understand the fried chicken yeah get tomatoes on crazy people would catch him on a Chick-fil-A sandwich if you want it.

I guarantee you my dear all, this is the gold shell very hard. My guys very hard. If you want to embrace debate.

This is were you so was brought to my attention yesterday as I was. We are all so wrapped up in the sketch of acceptable cannot casually mentioned, I think it was all fair.

The catcher was like the ninth best condiment. I said that is just whatever I don't even know if I can come up with eight other condiments to be perfectly honest, but it didn't put anything on a Chick-fil-A sandwich and frankly I don't need the Chick-fil-A sauces better than catch just the whatever that whatever whatever that is what that's about. As sauces go as condiments goes pretty good so but again I am I'm chicken pickle born good to go. I like the spicy is my preference that spicy is my preference. I the yet we only tackle the tough subjects through here on the program. I told Joe that his coxes here on television. If you can watch us do this and you can find us at WR ale, sports, plus so if you are local to the Raleigh market find us on spectrum cable channel 1257 over the air network 35 over the air antenna 34.1 fire Roku android Apple TV as well stream is@wralesportsfan.com there is so much going on today.

I mean over ticketless amount of things to get to today's start of an angel free agency. Yes, we've got it by way of silver. A couple things to say that I think people will be interested in hearing Baker Mayfield met the media yesterday. The open championship starts in just a few minutes and I mentioned this yesterday. You might've thought I was kidding. I did say yesterday that if the Braves beat the Mets today as it is yesterday. Then I will give it the same treatment that I gave the Mets beating the Braves from Monday and I went, I won't lie Braves formats one and upset. All right, let's get right to it because free agency has begun is a wild wild day signed everyone right no no no it's I have not seen the first official siding. We had a bunch things that happen yesterday, but I can tell you that the Carolina hurricanes are closing in on a deal that will bring defenseman Brent Burns from the San Jose Sharks to the Carolina hurricanes. There are apparently multiple players involved. There will be salary retained Burns is 37 years old, that's old still good though he has an $8 million average annual value on his contract. The money owed to him the rest of the way is not that much. They the total money owed in the last three years, three years left in this field. Total money owed is 16.5 million. So that's part of it is bonus money out of there and he gets in his interplay to the bonus money San Jose will retain some of the Which has to happen for Carolina to get this deal done and then to make other signings as they will have to make other signings if Jay Gardner is off the books, then Carolina has roughly 12 between 22 and 23 million to work with to get eight NHL players three NHL defenseman and now maybe that includes Ethan bear who they did send offer.

Make a qualifying offer to but still three NHL defenseman five NHL forwards. That includes two of the restricted free agents Stephen Lawrence and Martin ages that includes Jack Drury so if they re-sign those two and Drury comes up.

They need to NHL forwards, which okay but still there's money going out for those three players so that each Indy into your available.

Whatever your Head is on Burns eats into that if you have to. If you ultimately buy Gardner out $1 million of that is a case is a buyout that eats a deer And now you still need the NHL defenses you've you've wasted $1 million. You have 1 million less to play with so anyway there are a lot of things that still have to happen for the hurt so let me before we get into who went where and what I just want to get all of that out there so here's this is what McQueary went to the situation. Tony D'Angelo's gone they got butts traffics that's fine. People asked me about Vincent Truax checking the no need to write project looks like. According to Dave Van Yoder with the fourth. Their great source. He says that church exit assignment ranges at that spot to me. Project makes is going to make way too much money for ultimately 1/3 line center here is why say in the playoffs and really all throughout the season Sebastian how centered their topline Jordan stall centered arguably their best line. There, but will I will say is that stall drew the assignment against the other teams at least one of their top two lines all year long as and especially in the playoffs.

Vincent Truax checks line drew favorable assignments.

They did not dominate and any point I like Truax check he's going to make $6 million a year. I want that. No, not this that should have been in the postseason that should have been the part of the lineup were Carolina dominated.

I will also say the same thing about fourth line because Carolina sport line should have been more offensive Coke of the enemy or Domi or nature. Snow never happened.

Never happened. I'm not blaming Truax check, but Truax check was a little bit sporadic. He certainly was sporadic in the playoffs. They had some good GE had some very good games but there also a lot of empty nights cannot empty nights in the postseason.

Even Carolina's best players may be worn as productive their worst games been Sebastian all at one dreadful game. I think it was game six in Boston to the game six and buzzer game six in York, I forget which one it was just at like mine glowingly bad, but as it was told told to me by somebody I trust it will not worst letter so we had company that night, but I'll yeah most part while maybe not being as productive offensively was a good player. Truax check had just too many empty empty trips and you don't need a writer. That number would have to be so low for me. Nino had his best playoff for the hurricanes to see this year we had five points and 14 games to play the on what your power play units.

I mean no he's got 12.7 goals and 12 points total in 43 playoff games for the hurricanes. He can go do that somewhere else for me. I mean, I don't know what could happen but you can go do that somewhere. All right, so here's what has happened and this is why I will use this phrase.

What is our most precious commodity. Dennis gold used to be 100 years ago. I would say yes, you're right time. Yes, time and time is running out for the hurricanes. Keep talking about a two-year window to win the Stanley Cup for a lot of reasons.

I think this is the window that maybe another one will open but for the current team. This window has two more years left in it as a golden studio in my Mancos pizza router with a capital financial advisory group.

We are talking retirement coach. Let's say I have more than $1 million balance in my 401(k) revelations that determine how connect actually come back and bite me because in this is something that we did we get the Mirage received the Rogers of the desert before you see what's what. Her head was not there when your financial garage is thinking that that total balance in your 401(k) or IRA is yours. We have two people to want to get a hold of her two uncles buckled North Carolina and Uncle Sam both of you to do some damage to the balance depending on what kind of other income you have loose 40% of your value.

So if you're looking at a million-dollar IRA because we were 6000 you. So how do we get around is what you'll get around it because you end up in jail. If you try to do what you can do tax planning to minimize the effect of taxation into the future. The tax train is coming out and we need to make sure to minimize the effect of the derailment of a financial accountant for the next 10 people will do it at no cost rotation. Put together your very own tax and retirement plan 800-661-7383 or text Adam to 21000 for coach beetroot penguins re-sign crystal tank. Maybe they paid too much money. I don't know. They re-sign you get a market yesterday. They re-sign Ricard Racquel okay so penguins are bringing back similar a similar team as the one that think finished third in the metropolitan division year ago and they by the way still have Sidney Crosby and Jake Ansell and Brian Rust still good team.

The Senators acquired Alex to bring They traded for Max Talbot from Minnesota, so they have a legitimate number one goal is not like a superstar, but he is a guy who can play 5560 times so they get got themselves a goalie and I haven't seen any news over the last few seconds, but they are may be the front runner foreclosure route they actually did sign I did three years six and half year six and after year for three years. He is 35 years old, but that's home for him right there was speculation Florida to try and keep them speculation.

Carolina was going to go after him, but okay so all of a sudden Senators who gave Carolina trouble last year. By the way, Senators are just a little bit better and they're not done they got Room they're going to add another defenseman.

They are about saying they definitely will make the playoffs, but they're not to be pushovers. The Rangers again will be acquiring Vincent Truax check there to get better just by being a year older, with Loughran Geer and Chacko and Miller all some of their younger players are simply going to get better with one more year in the NHL and they have that goaltender is pretty good so we know that the Rangers getting better the devil's and Eric Hollow, which may or may not be a positive in a deal with Boston and they might be the front runners for Johnny Goudreau from Calgary only had hundred 15 points last year. That's good right and that's also a team with some very good young talent will see how their goaltending have they had what Witek made a check. I think from Washington. Their goaltending is okay, but they're getting better. You could see the talent the East is getting stronger around Carolina Carolina hundred 16 points last year, people forget that there but they are losing a lot and have a lot of work to do. Brent Burns. If they do add to do to complete this trade. Want to see what the truth of the mechanics of the trade are how much Room is retained by San Jose. He's an upgrade from Tony D'Angelo but is also older and we simply do not know. I do know this. He freelances a lot on the blue line. He's a little bit more unpredictable than Tony or Dougie handled but will see how works out playing with Jacob Slaven always makes you better talk about defense for Carolina looks like Brendan Smith to the New Jersey Devils on a one year deal are sorry to your deal with a $1.1 million averaging will value okay and Ian cold psyches agree to terms of a one-year $3 million deal with Tampa Bay.

Ian Coulter Tampa yet. All right, Inc. also I know Carolina will have to replace both of those guys but they probably figured to have to replace both of them anyway and good for Ian cold. Good for Brendan Smith thought they might try to bring Smith back but a two-year deal is better than what Carolina was offering. I am positive of that I am .1 million a year else I yet available 300,000 ghetto raise from last year like Brendan Smith and know he's got is not the greatest skater the world body's physical presence. Carolina has to replace a lot with both of those guys got cold was a big penalty killer for them.

Good shot blocker. So a ton going on Brendan Bill also scored big goals and The Ranger series came to me call scored the goal the game-winning goal gave one course the overtime that was an own goal, but was still, he scored it and then Brendan Smith with the shorthanded goal was just phenomenal are a couple of couple more things coming up at the bottom of the hour, John Scheier will join us. Duke's basketball coach.

So last I would talk to and he was the almost basketball coach. But he is now the actual coach addicts will talk to John Scheier in about 15 minutes. June 19, 2006, but it all started May 6, 1997 with the announcement that the Hartford whalers were coming to North Carolina transition of heartbreak of figuring it out on the fly.

The caseworker look at the 25th anniversary of the movie presented by the company of North Carolina. Listen now find NBA age limit and other things as well have been discussed by the commissioner against everybody's out at summer league. So Adam Silvers talking about the board of governors meeting out there I Adam Silvers not only talking about what an advocate for lowering the age limit for draft eligibility from 19 to 18 which is, essentially, you can go right from high school to the NBA right right now you have to be one year removed from your high school class graduating before you are eligible to be drafted into the NBA.

That doesn't mean you can't turn pro that doesn't mean you can't go to the G link. That's why there is a G league ignite right. I wonder if this would eliminate the G league ignite.

I think it would probably have to because anybody going to G league ignite would probably just go into the draft so there are ways for you to be a pro anyway. There's also like over time believe things like that you can play overseas a lot of different ways for you to avoid going to college for the one year if that's not what you wanted with her couple guys that got got went to Kentucky but didn't filing reclassified basely graduating your early morning reclassified graduated a year early. Went to Kentucky never played on traffic yet same sort of waves yes seven effect if I'm not mistaken, don't quote me on this. I guess I am saying it out loud. I think he might've gotten her yet shortly to get her so hopefully will be okay anyway.

But I'm silver is an advocate for getting rid of the one year waiting period if you will, and for the people who are anti-one and done in college and I am not one of those people. I wish that first of all, I've never thought better use those that you should be able to go right out of high school to the NBA but I thought that the college game should've embraced made it rates for these players to come to college for one year because even if they leave you had. We were all better off having watched Zion Williamson for year it seems fun right now just what college it.

Let's just say you don't have a favorite team college basketball and television numbers overall bear this out college basketball one because Zion Williamson played a year at Duke. I I'll even throw another player in their who, while wasn't the attraction. If you watched him play.

You had a great time every day.

Every time you watch them Kobe White at UNC.

That guy was. I mean a smile on your face every time you watch them play one year player college basketball is a better place when these guys are in it, even if it's for year but you know what lowering the age limit will not stop one and done it won't stop want to go along with creating the baseball rule where if you go to college you got a stay for three years that's major-league baseball's role.

That's not the college games role the door. The reality is is that unless you believe college sophomores never enter the draft. They do then like Mark Williams was a sophomore. He entered the draft will always have one year players always. This is not going to stop that couple of the things that I'm silver was talking about a release.

One other thing while they made the play and they're gonna make the play in tournament permanent which I think is great.

Yeah, I again I wish the NHL would go to that I did the NHL would benefit from a plan tournament expanding playoff opportunities wise. I bet wise. I bet were not were not diluting the product. The NHL was built on 16/21 teams making the playoffs.

At one point they had before then the original six I think four of those six make the playoffs.

We don't so a planter that would be good but the the NBA is also considering an in season tournament. I'm I'm fascinated by how this would be structured because I do think for you know, for those of us who are long time European soccer fans. Yes, longtime supporters think think about it sort of as a a concentrated champions league so all 30 teams in the NBA would be involved. You could have five groups of six teams, five group winners you'd short the regular season would be short in some games, but these games could essentially count toward stats and everything else for the round robin portion of this you ever you play every team twice.

Take the best team from each group a team that wins each group and the second the three best second-place teams that your knockout, you play a single elimination know at most two teams play. I'll be fun, be something different. Yeah, right.

So, okay, you win this midseason tournament at what you get a trophy and over time it would matter. Right you mean in year one is not can have the same weight but you play for cash are mysteriously just a big pile of money will throw that billing box still silence a winter chill at the NBA revenues were left her a lot.

10 billion. Yeah, they got money they've got money. That's why NBA players; 50,000 or make a lot yeah sounds go make $62 million in the third year of his third or fourth year of his contract.

What that could we all know is not that good. I'm not saying he's not good we know is not that good. Just saying the NBA's got a lot of cash, so why not put a big pile of money on it and who knows to be a team that isn't necessarily a championship contender wins that will be fun based in a way it'll like I'm a huge FA cup guy to save exporter that water could you thoroughly and I don't incentive in there like you get the top pick in the second round or something like that to my throat like an extra draft pick in their yeah me.

I I'd I don't see the front office front office is more into it than the players right one is a team award. It was art which is fair.

The other would be you know what you do you want your players to go after it. So players will be less interested in that but that does not throw it that for a million-dollar partner guy split.

Here's another visit. This is not something that they're talking about, but what about what if you did this in the NBA because were worried about taking right right. The teams that miss the playoffs you draft in reverse order. Okay, so the team that is the last team out or you go with him so we have what 20 of this we have 10 teams in each conference. So the 21st team gets the first pick or you too tired to the two teams that don't make the plan tournament that that fall out of the plan tournament. So there's incentive to still play your way in. Yeah to the playoffs. But if you are if you get bounced and you get the topic. Maybe those teams are the only teams in the lottery so in year one, the premier Lacrosse league did something like that where the third and fourth place teams got into the first round of the playoffs.

But if they lost they played each other and whoever won that game played the winner of five, six, and the winner of that game got the number one overall pick. So yeah so a chance to win the championship, but if you didn't event Safari to so play for the number one pick.) There's only six teams but you could do something like that that what were trying to avoid in all sports is organizational taking because that's not good for anybody. So if if there was less incentive if there was more incentive to put up credible product on the court then that's a good thing and I think this would do that. This is the atom gold shell June 19, 2006, but it all started May 6, 1997 with the announcement that the Hartford whalers were coming to North Carolina transition of heartbreak.

Figuring it out on the fly became Porter look at the 25th anniversary of the moon, presented by the Carolina listen now find
