Hurricanes Prospects Mailbag: Draft Edition

The draft begins July 7 and people have questions about the draft, the state of the pipeline and more. Since this is such a big time of year for the future of the team, I figured that I’d answer some questions from Canes fans in order to help prepare everyone for draft season.

What position do you think we draft first?

Connor decided to hit me with the toughest question first, I see. The Hurricanes won’t have a selection until the late second round and at that point, you’re just hoping to draft the best player available.
