Thank God he stayed in Nashville.

In the light of all this, I wish for Brassard to convert into a 1st line winger, to provide me with much needed C/W combo play!

Love Jay Harrison's new contract. 3 x 1.5.

Matias Strozyk @MaStrozyk

SovSport report that #Canes will announce the signing of Semin within the next hour. Believed to be a 1y deal with higher $ than last year.

Still looking into if the source is legit. So I'd guess 1yr @ 7mil since he made 6.7 last year.

[Shep]

Told you he'd sign in Carolina, Billy!

lol..

[Shep]

Looks like it's done.

Dmitry Chesnokov @dchesnokov

My source who is close to Semin on Semin signing w/ @NHLCanes: "It's true." So, Alexander Semin is set to play in Carolina next year.

Chip Alexander @ice_chip

Canes have signed Semin. One year at $7 million, Rutherford says.

[Shep]

Fucking looooove it.

dayum carolina

[Shep]

Carolina is a dark horse for the East IMO. They'll win their division with EASE. Their D is the only suspect part.

[Shep]

I've already said, if there is chemistry with either Staal, Semin will be extended in January.

[Arian The Insider]

low risk, very high reward. it's just money on a 1 year deal.

[KapG]

Burke should have been all over this.

[Robin Hood]

I'm getting sick of Burke.

[Robin Hood]

Oh and Semin is fucking amazing. I know people call him lazy and unmotivated. I think a lot of it had to do with playing in OV's shadow as the other Alex. He's going to be expected to be the #1 goal scorer in carolina.

[Phion Keneuf]

um maybe he wanted cap space and didnt want to sign another soft player, especially a winger?

just a thought ....

Carolina's top 6 is starting to look pretty legit
