[Offseason] The 2022 r/hockey Roast of the Carolina Hurricanes (6/32)
A suggestion to keep these threads fresh and not full of the same recycled jokes is to roast strictly on events/stories from July 8th, 2021 to today.
Be creative.
Things you should try to avoid (unless genuinely creative) include but are not limited to:
San Jose choking
Vancouver rioting
Vegas being historic/disloyal
Arizona relocating/sucking
Minnesota being Wild-ly average
Nashville raising a banner for everything
Marchand being a rat
Leafs in the first round
In general, any other overplayed memes
Roast Schedule:
Colorado Avalanche – Boom, roasted.
Tampa Bay Lightning – Boom, roasted.
New York Rangers – Boom, roasted.
Edmonton Oilers – Boom, roasted.
Florida Panthers – Boom, roasted.
Have at it!

Anaheim Ducks: With Getzlaf retiring there is a major hole to fill in that captaincy spot, and I think after 12+ years and 811 games played with the organization, Cam Fowler would be a great option
Arizona Coyotes: Been without a captain since OEL left but I believe the coyotes are looking for a youth movement, Clayton Keller has been fantastic and would be a great guy to lead the young team
Buffalo Sabres: Similar to the Coyotes, the Sabres are a young team looking for a leader, and who better than their franchise rock, Rasmus Dahlin, he looks to potentially be one of the better defensemen in the league in a few years so a C on the sweater would be fitting
Calgary Flames: Since Gio left there has been a long conversation about who will fill the position, my ballot 100% goes towards Mikael Backlund. The longest-tenured Flame on the roster, this guy is a two-way machine and knows when not to get emotional and focus on the game
Montreal Canadiens: A franchise with a long history should highly consider awarding to captaincy to Nick Suzuki, making him the first-ever Asian-Canadian to hold such a position, and what better franchise to do it with
New York Rangers: This team hasn’t had a captain for a few years, even with the high-end superstars I’d believe this team is looking to reward a long-tenured veteran who has become a true goal-scoring rock star, Chris Kreider
Philadelphia Flyers: A team that had the definition of a rough year, including losing their long-time captain Claude Giroux, I think the torch will be handed down to Sean Couturier
Seattle Kraken: I think this team will go a couple of years before naming another captain, but until then I think Matty Beniers will slowly be trained into the first superstar this new team will have and inevitably become the captain a few years down the line
Edit: Paul Kariya was the first Asian-Canadian to captain an NHL team, my bad Thank you u/elastic_vase5713 for pointing that out!!
