Martha Garza+FollowJankowski’s Sneaky Debut: Canes’ Best Deadline Steal?While everyone was buzzing about the Rantanen blockbuster, the real under-the-radar move was the Canes snagging Mark Jankowski from the Preds for a 5th-rounder.

Christopher Li+FollowHow the Jeff Skinner trade shaped the HurricanesTurning a star scorer into long-term success isn’t easy, but the Hurricanes’ 2018 Jeff Skinner trade keeps paying off. While Skinner was a fan favorite, the real win came from the draft picks Carolina received. Those picks turned into Pyotr Kochetkov, now a key goalie, and Alexander Nikishin, a promising defenseman finally making his NHL debut. Even James Reimer, acquired with a later pick, helped stabilize the net for a couple of seasons. Seven years later, it’s clear: this move set up the Canes for sustained playoff runs. What do you think—was this the best trade in franchise history? #Sports #IceHockey #Hurricanes00Share
