How did Carolina get Jackson Blake, their leading playoff scorer, in the fourth round? I'm told it was their Minnesota-based scout, Eric Fink, who went to bat for Blake. GMs always get the recognition for picks, but lower-profile scouts play major roles in shaping organizations.
KIDS: Logan Stankoven and Jackson Blake are both under 6 feet tall. But their absolute will helped lead the Canes to the Stanley Cup.
This line has been one of the best lines of any team for the whole playoffs. Through plays like this. They are absolute dogs on second efforts, battles, and in the dirty areas.
Just RELENTLESS on this shift. Winning races, multiple efforts, and eventually they get rewarded with the goal. These two set the tone all playoffs. And for all the smaller players out there, they showed us that it truly isn't the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.
Congrats to the Canes for reaching the dream and winning the Stanley Cup. And thanks to all of you who've been following along with these breakdowns all year!!

Brent Sutter--who famously got big mad when Ollie Josephson left his team *over the off season*--apparently has no moral qualms with grabbing kids off of BCHL rosters on the last day of January.
