Was he for us though?

Gilmore was pretty good though

The only ones spewing that crap were the coaches themselves trying to soften an underperfmance

Slow news day

I mean, technically, couldn't he PLAY safety?

You aren't taking into account that the cap is expected to increase 8 or 9 million or so for the 2026-2027 season. Also NHL cap space doesnt roll over so there is no "saving" cap even if the cap wasn't increasing (which it is) you could still sign players with that money for one year deals So stop spewing BS cap metrics that you are almost never correct about.

I don't get the overachieved thing, start of the season the Canes were 10th odds for winning the cup. After the second Mikko trade they were top 3 to win the Cup.

One of the safeties would honestly make the most sense. Ramsey is the big splash name but a plug and play decent starting safety is a bigger need than a 30 year old mega money CB. Especially after we just made Horn the highest paid DB on the league.

You don't pay a 32 year old corner 25 million a year. There is an out after 25

Is this thread real? I can tell this is a bunch of Carolina Panther fans that are late comers to the Canes. The only reason we even made it this far this year is the coaching. We have 30 million in cap, two 1st round picks this coming year and just went to the ECF for the 3rd time in 7 years as a small market franchise. We also have Jarvis, Aho, Svech, and Slavin long term. We are in a fantastic position and overachieved in a "rebuilding" year. Canes just need to keep injecting talent and we will breakthrough. I wish the Carolina Panthers made it in the NFC Championship game in a rebuilding year with two first rounders and the most cap room in the NFL in the upcoming year.

this is still a David Tepper team. Which means, we are always yet never rebuilding. It's like signing Gilmore a couple years back. We need to be developing players, not renting win now guys when we aren't a win now team.

Hows it a one year rental? He's got 3 years left?

What could that unknown information possibly be? The theory most Panthers fans may rush to might involve three-time All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey, who is seemingly on the outs with the Miami Dolphins. Ramsey appears likely to be traded in the coming weeks, and raised some eyebrows with his recent praise of Panthers defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero. Or perhaps Bates was thinking about another kind of defensive back. The Panthers should still be in the market for a starting safety, and have already met with free agents Julian Blackmon and Marcus Williams earlier this spring. Or, maybe it's not even a big move at all. Only Bates, and obviously a select few, would know. But whatever that information is, we may be very close to finding it out. https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/29/panthers-nfl-rumors-daren-bates-jalen-ramsey-dolphins/83924733007/?taid=6838ada5733f4c0001828c7d&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

The Hurricanes also have been great with analytics, and lets be honest, it's also coaching. Development of draft picks is vital. The Hornets have had plenty of high picks, and they either miss or don't develop them properly. Compare the ability of how each the Hornets and Canes develop. It's night and day. The problem with the Hornets has always been at the top, not because of a NBA conspiracy (which may also be true.) I'm just saying that smart teams find a way to eventually be competitive regardless of draft status. Look at the Pacers, great example of a similar market that is consistently pretty competitive. The difference is we select the MKGs and Adam Morrisons of the world.

Shrugs. Tell me when there is ink on paper. Until this, it's all hot air.

Everyone making excuses when the 2023-24 team had the talent to go all the way and the same results happened. What are we supposed to do? Bring in more superstars who dont fit Rod's system because of the fact that they are superstars? The amount of copium is beyond normal levels.

The Ramesy thing doesnt make sense as its only a one year rental. Seems like an expensive rental.

Let's not forget that Blake, Morrow, Nikishin and Stankoven are RFA after next season. So probably going to keep 8-10m free, giving 18m to spend.

If Dan signs Ramsey and Blackmon...!!! He's the GOAT Panther GM of all time! Not really a high bar, but still...
