full quote on McGinn.

He's the guy Tripp is always raving about his pain threshold. I think he got hit in the middle of the ice, not against the boards.

That being said, I am very happy the Canes didn't let themselves get pushed around. They went hit for hit and Blake Comeau is a dirty fugging player. There are other refs who would have whistled him a couple times last night.

Florida is going to be a little more physical as well, seeing what happened last night.

It was an open ice hit right near the red line. Dude basically punched him in the ear with a hockey stick in his hands while skating at full speed.

Lucas Wallmark was waived by Chicago today, I'd definitely consider bringing him back now to slot in for McGinn while he's out and upgrade 4C going forward.

I don't know if he would upgrade the 4th line at this point. But, I would not hate to see us add a little more grit at this point in the season.

Dons big talking point lately is a right shot defenseman. Unfortunately that’s a heavily sought commodity at this point. If McGinn is out for a length of time though I do agree we may have to consider a rental forward too if TT will be out for the rest of season.

Would like to have Joel Edmundson on the roster right about now. I'd line him up with Fleury.

We may never see TT play hockey again if his concussion symptoms continue.

Reimer still a trade option?

 

Here is the latest on trades from Waddell.

      Trevin Wallace - PFF Breakout Nominee

      You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that truly elite players will always have a market because they're elite difference makers and that at the "devalued positions" the NFL has discovered that those are spots where unless you have an elite talent there you have an opportunity to get similar results out of run of the mill talent for run of the mill money compared to good talent for good money. The drop off in overall unit performance isn't dramatic dropping down from "good" to "JAG" and it saves money to invest in the premium positions. It's about skill sets and what is hardest to find, simple supply and demand. There's just more serviceable LBs and RBs and safeties out there than their are CBs and pass rushers and QBs. And honestly, a big part of our historic lack of consistent success has been investing too many premium draft and cap resources into those devalued positions. Yeah, we've had a lot of great off the ball LBs and RBs on our way to be a franchise with an overall losing record. Pointing to our success at those positions is proving my point because I just point to our W-L record and overall lack of historical quality at premium positions like QB, WR, CB, etc. We've sucked in large part because we've valued the wrong position groups. In a vacuum it doesn't matter. But in actuality every high pick or big chunk of cap you spend on an off the ball LB or RB or IOL is a high pick or big chunk of cap you couldn't spend on a QB or CB or WR or OT.

      Right before Kuechly retired, we had some of the worst D line play that year.  We were ranked 29th against the run in 2019.   I remember even Kuechly struggled to get off the blocks at times because the linemen were on second level so quickly due to our porous line made up of Kyle Love, Vernon Butler and a washed up Gerald McCoy.
