David Gettleman addressed a few things during the morning's practice, and here are a couple of excerpts regarding Kevin Norwood, and then Corey Brown by way of your favorite reporter, David Newton

Kevin Norwood has a reputation for having strong hands? How much was that a part of the decision to acquire him?

Gettleman: That’s part of it. We watched when he came out [of Alabama in 2014]. We did a private workout with him and [wide receivers coach Ricky Proehl] was in there with him. The kid has exceptional hands. He’s a big, strong wide receiver. We feel he’s talented and it was a chance to get him and work with him. He’s really smart. He’s a very smart kid. He’s going to be able to learn all three [positions]. A lot of the pass-game verbiage that Alabama uses we use as well. ... It’s an easier fit.

Sounds great. The kid apparently impressed everyone that matters, and he's surprisingly learning all three positions. 

And then there is this...

How concerning have the drops been (6 by Corey Brown in the last two games)?

Gettleman: There’s a reason they call the position receiver. It’s disconcerting for everybody. We’ll keep working.

 

There's a reason they call the position "receiver."

      So, Is Bryce Playing this Week or Nah?

      By strato · Posted

      Theilen came back and Bryce had him. Which he was lost for Andy after the first game, or am I wrong on that?    And people are so overrating most of those Bryce games. There were a couple of good ones and a very good one. Of his basically two complete very good games. That Atlanta game in that stretch and the Dallas game this year being the complete ones. Maybe I missed one but the 2023 Green Bay game was really a very good 4th quarter and a average 1st half. Maybe I missed another but that NYG Europe game was nothing to brag about yet people did. Just sayin.  I mean you can name his really nice games on one hand. Out of how many now? 33? 34? Something like that.

      So, the goal that should not have been a goal.... https://www.nhl.com/news/carolina-hurricanes-colorado-avalanche-coach-challenge-x1595 Challenge Initiated By: Carolina Type of Challenge: Missed Game Stoppage Event – High-Sticking the Puck Result: Original call confirmed – Goal Colorado Explanation: The Situation Room supported the Referee’s call on the ice that Parker Kelly’s stick was not above the normal height of his shoulders when he contacted the puck at 15:31 of the second period (4:29 elapsed time) – 17 seconds prior to his goal. The decision was made in accordance with Rule 80.1. Penalty: 2:00 minor penalty: Delay of Game – Unsuccessful Challenge ------------------------------------------------------------ How the challenge was interpreted as a high stick challenge is beyond me. What I cannot find is what/how RBA challenged the goal and how it was reviewed as a high stick goal when Stevie Wonder could see the hand extending off Kelly's stick, essentially grabbing at the puck and it went by Freddie.
