I must say, even with the obvious flubs in 2008-2010, that is pretty impressive. 

Everette Brown wasn't a first round pick.

Are we certain he can still do this if he's not around to ensure that we have a sh-tty record so we're picking in the top half of the round?

So what exactly did Hurney do to ensure our sh-tty record this year?

Yeah, that's a little bit of a shot at Hurney, as was the double listing of Otah. Traded first round picks to get both of them.

Eh Otah was a very good to great player, his rookie season was dominant.  Just couldn’t stay healthy.

At the time of both signings they looked solid

At the time of Armanti Edwards drafting, that looked good too.

Nobody judges results by whether they seemed like a good idea at the time. About 99% of the time, they do. That they seem to be but then turn out not to be is what makes a bust.

This is true. Widely regarded as good signings across the spectrum of sports media, as well. 

I won't lie, I will admit that I have thought that perhaps our OL struggles have an element of coaching that has failed. It's strange that so many on the line that had previously been solid are suddenly looking like garbage.

Matsko must go or else 2020 will be a repeat of 2019.

    • 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.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
