Faulk played the team's first two games, registering no points and a minus-6 rating. The team will continue to rotate their blue line as the season progresses but he probably sees some time in the AHL.
With Justin Faulk working with Derek Joslin, he could be a healthy scratch. Through his first three games, the young defenseman was held without a point and with a minus-6 rating. His demotion could pave the way for Jamie McBain or Ryan Murphy to enter the lineup.
Last season, at the University of Minnesota-Deluth, he scored eight goals and 33 points over 39 games. The team seems certain he fits in a top four role this season.
Faulk seems likely to make the team out of camp if the above quotes are any indication. Last season, at the University of Minnesota-Deluth, he scored eight goals and 33 points over 39 games. Expect him to be eased into NHL play.

No immediate fantasy hockey value in the AHL.
Faulk has impressed during this season's Traverse City Prospects Tournament and is on the short list to make Carolina's opening night roster. The former University of Minnesota-Deluth standout has been fast-tracked by the Canes, playing only one collegiate season.
