Paquette is doing his job- twice Columbus has wanted to drop the gloves with him.

Like his line, too. RBA built a nice 4th line with him.

Gonna be great to see him Wednesday when he isn’t sleep deprived and gets a full practice under his belt. 

The Don is quietly building quite the contender.

And, we still have a couple million to play with before the trade deadline.

If I told you 2 months ago that covid would hit half our team at once, Petr would get his thumb mangled like yarn in a blender, we play a game shorthanded because we are cap strapped and that Jordan Staal would be our best player, who would've guessed we'd be 10-3-0?

Not me.  The depth this year is what is really impressive.  Staal, McGinn, Nino, Necas, Trochek, oh yeah and those guys Aho and Svechnikov, who haven’t even come close to their potential yet, and now Turbo getting back into form.  Then Skjei, Pesce and Gardiner playing like world beaters, and Slavin and Dougie haven’t played to their potential yet.  I mean...

I was about to say the same thing, so much firepower on the top 9....  I'm watching Necas closely because he seems like a guy who is putting it together....

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
