Carolina Bosticane🌹🍉☭

@CanesIncognito @jakkrejsa Dude, this trade tree is branchy as hell

@__BOST__ @jakkrejsa Yep. I missed that branch when summing this up. Wild.

The Necas-Rantanen trade tree now looks like: COL - M. Necas, J. Drury, L. Petterson, 4th CAR - L. Stankoven, T. Hall, K. Miller, K. Limatov, 1st, 3rd DAL - M. Rantanen CHI - N. Behm NYR - S. Morrow, 1st, 2nd LAK - J. Lombardi, 2nd, 3rd OTT - W. Foegele, 3rd

@jakkrejsa @CanesIncognito You really never know with the name Petterson and hockey. I had to look this up.

@__BOST__ @CanesIncognito Thank you, was confused because there are like 3 L Pettersons prospects but none in the avs system. There was a bit of hope we had a possibility promising prospect I knew nothing about.

@jakkrejsa @CanesIncognito And Casey Mittelstadt. Probably more when development prospects are considered.

@jakkrejsa @CanesIncognito Liam. Drafted by Boston. The trade tree is more complicated than this overview. Also involves Charlie Coyle.

@zcohen17 @CanesIncognito You can't be serious...

@CanesIncognito Huge Dallas W

@Canes Teuvo & Jarvy

You can invite two #Canes players, past or present, to dinner. Who are you choosing?

@emanningwrites We really only need him in the lineup for one thing though, right? Will he be willing to do that one thing against his former team that he just recently departed from?

@emanningwrites That's a fair critique of the premise of my question 😂

Serious question. Given that Deslauriers came from Philly *very* recently, does his presence become a non-factor if we match up against them?

@emanningwrites As a fan, I'll take the rest. Would rather have Nikishin closer to returning and time is a major factor there.

From what I've heard, players don't really like having a ton of time off between series.

Getting increasingly frustrated. The Canes are absolutely suffocating. Giving us nothing.

Welcome to the start of the NHL Playoffs in Raleigh. @Canes vs Senators.

@Blank_Takes One of the best hits of the night was from Ehlers. This is a completely different playoff team in terms of attitude, not just size.

I will say all of the effort that Dundon and Tulsky have put into getting "bigger and meaner" is clearly on display here. Miller, Nikishin, Carrier, and even Robinson (who I have been critical of for playing soft in the past). All of these guys are large bodies that have been added to the roster within the last two years and they are hitting everything today. So are the small guys, really. This is the most physical version of the team since Brind'Amour took over behind the bench for my money. And Deslauriers isn't even dressed. #SoundTheSiren

Do you accept this proposition Senator @ryanwhitney6 you Legend🚨

Nikita Zadorov knocks Jarvis off his feet & Jarvis hits the board. Zadorov has some words for the Canes' bench. He is invited by Nicolas Deslauriers for a confrontation. Zadorov declines. No lip-reading skills necessary for Deslauriers response: "Fuckin' pussy"

@eichacker35 I think we'd sweep em.

Agree with Tripp Tracy, Ottawa is not a team I want Carolina to play in the playoffs.

Listened to the maple leafs broadcast some this evening and found it to be unbearable. They won't stop talking about baseball even with plenty of action on the ice. Sabres broadcast, in comparison, is fine but very low energy. We Caniacs fans are so spoiled.

In the wake of @NHLPlayerSafety 's decision last week to suspend Radko Gudas for only five games for causing a season-ending injury to Auston Matthews, Edmonton Oilers star forward and captain Connor McDavid has called on the NHL to audit its suspension process. Respect McDavid. Someone had to do it. #goavsgo @thehockeynews @EdmontonOilers

I worked at Epic Games for two years. This is real, and the strategy behind it is smarter than most people realize. Tim Sweeney has spent nearly two decades buying North Carolina forest land. 50,000+ acres across 15 counties. He’s now one of the largest private landowners in the state. The purchases started in 2008, right after the real estate collapse wiped out developers who had been planning golf resorts and luxury communities on biodiverse wilderness. Sweeney paid $15 million for Box Creek Wilderness, a 7,000-acre stretch in the Blue Ridge foothills containing 130+ rare and threatened species. Developers had owned 5,000 of those acres before the crash. He bought them for conservation prices when nobody else was bidding. He runs the acquisitions through an LLC called “130 of Chatham.” He buys the land, holds it for years, then either donates it to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, sells it at a discount to state parks, or hands it to land trusts. In 2021, he donated 7,500 acres in the Roan Highlands to the Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy. Largest private land donation in North Carolina history. The part people miss: he told the News & Observer that since 2021, land got too expensive to keep buying. So he shifted focus to converting his existing 50,000 acres into permanent conservation status. He’s locking the land into legal structures that make development impossible regardless of who owns it in the future. A billionaire worth roughly $6 billion is spending tens of millions acquiring wilderness specifically during economic downturns, then giving it away or placing it under permanent legal protection. The land will outlast him, Epic Games, and Fortnite. That’s the part that separates Sweeney from billionaires who write checks to get their name on a building. The building depreciates. The forest compounds.
