Seeing Kuznetsov pass it to Guentzel is going to be wierd as all hell

[@Sir_Sydney_live]

What's worse is there is a high chance that their is a goal that says Guentzel Assisted by Orlov and Kuznetsov!

[@vipeholmskolan6052]

They meet on neutral ground.

[@willflint5014]

As a Caps fan, I want to cry. Godspeed, Kuzy. Thank you for all that you have done for us and I wish you and your family well.

[@mcfries88]

same bro 😭😭😭

[@rivas832]

Guentzel needs to be added in the depth chart there.

[@ojkalala]

Thanks Dangle for getting the name right! Go Checkers!

[@Torothin1]

As a Canes fan I am super stoked. I agree. This team is now going to be coming at you in waves.

[@Sundagar]

Kuzy is literally just is he interested in playing at his best? If he is, Carolina is going to love him in the playoffs.

[@tripsaplenty1227]

not just kuzy, you described moat post-soviet hockey players. For every Datsyuk there is an ocean of Radulovs.

[@ATotalDork]

5:26 As an intimidation tactic, Rod the Bod should coach the playoffs without a shirt on. Slacks and loafers, no shirt, no jacket. Maybe a tie. If that man doesn't put the fear of God in the opposition, nothing will

[@78910idontknow]

The "IF" with kuzy is being criminally underplayed here for a podcast that says they have seen caps games. If carolina expects kuzy to be a top-6 center, they will lose. End of story.

[@carterthomas1946]

Kuzy has been pretty good in his first few games for the Canes, almost a PPG player right now

[@Nikkerman]

Hey he's a clutch goal scorer in the playoffs and that's all that matters

[@jlove8445]

“Kuzi” to Carolina is good, that means the Hurricanes will all be coked up during the playoffs

[@ojkalala]

PNC Arena is a Pepsi building

[@FalloutUrMum]

Aho, Necas, Svechnikov, Jarvis, Terraveinan, and now Guentzel and Kuznetsov. That's a stacked group of forwards right there. With the Hurricanes defensive core featuring Burns and Skjei. I don't think scoring is going to be a provlem anymore. Imagine if Orlov gets back to his old self too, you'll have 3 defensive pairs that have a scorer and a strong D-man I think the Hurricanes should keep Lemiuex and DeAngelo, those two players have grit that the canes need and also DeAngelo is essentially an extra scoring defenseman who's been used as a winger a lot this season. He's also an insanely good powerplay QB, I think each game he's been on their PP the Hurricanes have a goal from him

[@therecanbeonly1497]

All Carolina players cleared waivers

[@lauramorgan3241]

I miss the checkers being our farm team SO MUCH they were auch a short drive! Props on knowing and loving them. I'm pretty hype! Hope we both get deep runs!

[@vipeholmskolan6052]

It's a gamble but one that could work.

[@corytrevor5649]

There isnt going to be an add in every vid is there

[@christophergautschi4763]

Seriously, it's getting insane... We already get ads with KZbin, guys!!

[@brandonjc13]

Can't believe how many times I've yelled at the TV "SHOOT THE PUCK!" Canes team has trouble finishing sometimes, and just wanna keep passing it around. Hopefully Kuzy and Guentzel help with that. Also hopefully I see them in Raleigh on Sunday!!!

[@shishikusas]

all credit to jack drury, he’s been playing really well recently and had basically taken the 2C spot from kotkaniemi. but i understand the need to ‘upgrade’ and i hope kuzy can get a second chance here!

[@mp40submachinegun81]

1.125m is buryable via ahl

[@mkrcivoj]

Alex Semin 2.0 for the Canes. Wish Kuzy all the best but addition by subtraction.

[@andyf313]

... Please, someone claim Brendan Lemieux before the Panthers can.

[@DownsyMB]

I hate you for putting that possibility in my head and whole heartedly agree with your statement.

[@therecanbeonly1497]

He cleared. Still with the Canes

[@Vegland]

Is it just me, or does it feel like Carolina got the belle of the ball, and a great helper bit will still dall flat? Seems exciting but anti climactic at the same time?

[@Vegland]

Idk, maybe im just a Devìls/Vegas fan..

[@TheBrogers9]

Guentzal is a nice add… as an Avs fan, I hope kuznetsov fits in better than ryjo did in COL. I’m not sold this gives Carolina a better chance against FLA, NYR, TOR, BOS

[@Redstarchaw1]

As a leafs fan, I think the D and forward group kinda stomp them. We have the core four and some support, they're going 9 deep strong and have the D they do. Wouldn't want to play them personally. Then again Fla and bos look even better so let's just move to the metro?😂

[@silgarf]

Dam jesse has no humor today every video u look like u dont want to be there go home buddy
