What?????

I don’t see it. If Freddie had been in net Dallas would have 1 or 2 goals already, Canes playing the same. The difference is Bussi has stopped some good shots.

This team plays so different when Bussi is in net, with Anderson they take far more risks because they feel they have to score more.

Staal to Ehlers for a grade A PP shot, just missed.

1st period was a Masterclass on defense by both teams. About time for the Canes let’s keep it up.

Yes, it tells me they’ve improved significantly from sitting at what, 30-31st in the league on the PP to 11th now.

I wanted someone to hire him so we got the picks, but I'm also not upset that he'll now be back. I genuinely don't understand why so many fans on here dislike him so much. No, he's not perfect and made some mistakes this year, especially at the end of the playoff game and going so soft in coverage on the final drive. But considering this place torched him all offseason for us having the "worst defense in NFL history" last year. Said in the whole pre-draft process how we had to go defense in round 1 because of it and then complained the rest of the offseason that we didn't do enough to improve the defensive roster. How do people say all that about the defense and then complain when he turned that same unit into a pretty respectable defense this year. They were really the only reason we were in a lot of games for most of the season, as the middle part of the season they really stepped up and were playing like one of the better defenses in the league. I don't see any reason we can't improve even more next year if we spend another offseason focusing on adding pieces on that side of the ball, which we should be able to do with our draft picks and cap space. We had the historically worst defense ever last year and people are upset because we weren't the 85 Bears this year, make it make sense.

Some really good passes

And they are perfect during the month of February! The fact they're 11th in the league now, but best in the league since Dec 6 tells you everything you need to know.

Canes PP you say?

He was in the process of self destructing I guess

No call on a swing to the head

Staal is the C who will put this team on his back. Whoever wears it next will have some very large skates to fill.

Staal is playing out of his mind offensively

Ehh Miller alone makes that a great draft class. Glad we didn’t make the mistake of taking Scoot, as many wanted. MJ’s final parting gift to us

Ngl just because hes really our only c with size it makes a painful amount of sense ot have stall on the pp

About time

PP goal! What a deflection by the Captain!

Here we go again with the refs. The end of the Utah game, yesterday and now Martinook getting called for trying to avoid a bad hit.

Nookie did a no-no...

Bussi in net and Canes in the red uniforms today. Nice

I keep seeing people want Luke to be a DC but he's stated he doesn't want to commit the time it takes to be an NFL coach. Relevant portion starts at about 2:24:50.

He is only under contract through 2026 and won't be playing any in that year so we won't really know the extent of his injury recovery before we must give him a new contract. That means we are in a really tough spot. That also probably means we have to use our no. 1 on LT. I think there are four legit round one left tackle talents (Fano, Mauigoa, Proctor, and Lomu). I think it would be risky to wait for round 2 (Tiernan or Freeling) but we could roll the dice and move Moton over to LT while the new guy gets his feet under him. I do not see how we could possibly not use one of the first two picks on a LT.

Dallas is a big player team. We’ll see how much that matters once again. Hopefully Canes win anyway.
