Panthers have put a nice coat of green paint on the field. Might not help the footing.

When we've reached the point of painting the field green, it's time to consider field turf.

I love our natural grass field, but we're going to be a contender for a while playing deep into January so we need a field that will hold up.

Which ultimately will lead to Bowl games not being played at BoA. Don't see that happening due to revenue.

 

Thiswill likely bean issue or a non issue depending on how u look at it for years to come

I personally view it as a non issue

The increased risk of ankle/knee injuries associated with field turf is a concern that has to be weighed against playing on green dirt.

Many venues with natural grass "paint" their fields.  NASCAR does it, and I would be surprised if before preseason game no. 1 at BOA if they don't paint the field.

I get that, but it sounds like we're at the point of painting it to hide the dirt - not to enhance the grass. 

Maybe I'm assuming too much.

      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.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
