Well, when your biggest training camp invite is a guy who used to play for the team (and pretty well too), had a couple of DUI’s, was caught pissing in public, and spent last season playing in a beer league then there is the possibility of disaster on the horizon. (**Good news, since writing this, Jeff O’Neill and the ‘Canes have parted ways, realizing he wasn’t really going to make the team**) Then your captain has his knee “cleaned up” after missing half of last season recovering from surgery on said knee. And then one of your top forwards has a freak “off-ice training” accident, tearing his Achilles and has to have surgery, may be out up to 6 months.
