May 1, 2024 - 3:50 PM ET

Follow me on Twitter Follow @TheJeremyLaura Updates: Carolina has pulled Brind’amour’s extension offer at a very odd time (according to Dreger). Rod, as a player, was everything you want to see. As a coach, that carried over. He’s rumored to still hit the weight room with the team and can o...
