Is anyone worried Stew might get burnt out?

Been a concern of mine the past few weeks.  Dude is a tank and is running so fuging hard, but I'm kinda concerned he could be burnt out come playoff time.  I just don't get why he was still carrying the rock when we were up like 20 last week.  There may be a thread on this idk.  Obviously I think we're going 19-0 but I'm just kinda scared Stewart might get burnt out.  Wish someone like CAP or Fozzy could earn just a few carries a game

Hope we can get CAP or Weg rolling soon. One of those two could be our "Rawls" like the Seahawks found in him with Lynch going down. Don't want either of them to replace Stew this year obviously since Stew is playing as well as any back in the league and just chugging along, but I'd love to establish a really solid change of pace back. Fozzy isn't cutting it and if we lock up the 1 seed I don't want Cam running or Stew getting 20+ carries but still need that rushing attack.

I tend to agree with wanting more carries for CAP and/or Wegher, espec. when we have a good lead.  Question:  who do you deactivate to make it happen?  Fozzy?  Bersin? One of the ST guys?  We seem to be keeping extra rotational guys for our defense, which means offense is getting fewer guys activated...  It's been working, and it's hard to figure out what might change to get CAP or Wegher playing time.

Would you deactivate Fozzy for CAP?  Fozzy doesn't seem to have contributed much this year, but he's not gotten alot of snaps either.

Tough dilemma.

I like Fozzy, I do. But something isnt right with him ever since he got banged up. Idk if he is still hurt or what but he is getting hardly any snaps and not being super productive in his chances. I believe it would do him some good to step down and heal some more

    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
