It has been a quiet offseason for hockey news lately, except of course for the Carolina Hurricanes players living their best lives celebrating with their day with the Stanley Cup.
Frederik Andersen brought the Cup to Legoland, Nikolaj Ehlers celebrated with his home town, and Sebastian Aho brought it to a concert. Good times my friend, good times.
Frederik Andersen is building a pretty great day with the #StanleyCup!

At least one of us hit the big time!
Somehow I missed the beginning of the chatter regarding that Brind’Amour might retire when Jordan Staal does? I find it hard to believe. Perhaps it is a bit of posturing for the coach to get more money out of Mr. Dundon’s hands.
I hope everyone is having a great summer!
