Gil Brandt: Five best offseasons of 2017

Our draft class pretty much made out offseason.

Our FA class ain't too shabby either. We added 3 pro bowl caliber players to the defense. They may be old but all we need is one good season from Peppers, The Captain, and Adams. I watch some Peppers last year and he doesn't look like he has dropped off a bit to me.

No but we would have just as equal or a better draft overall. If DG did last year what he's done this year, we would be over the top. He's a good/great GM when he decides to do work.


Yea Dave even admitted as much that he started studying prospect film late and was behind on draft prep because of the SB run. Not sure if he got caught up in the hype or was just exhausted but he admitted to it.

indeed. Gman gambled and won big with Oher a few years ago. He's gambling once again and needs Kalil to, at the very least, stay healthy.

Kalil also had surgery to fix a problem that nagged him the last couple of years.  He said it was the best he had felt since his rookie year.  

That is very good news for us.

IDK if I feel too comfortable being named a contender in May. The Eagles team from a years ago left a bad taste in my mouth when it comes to good off-seasons 

Yeah but if you can't be optimistic this time of year, then why even bother being a fan?

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
