Seriously, take away the unforced turnovers, Nashville is just taking advantage of us trying to play their game again. We're not going to beat and bang them to death. We won't win doing it. Keep skating and passing around and start shooting. Constantly one too many passes that lead to turnovers because they collapse the slot.

And I feel like that's mostly because Lorentz is 0-50.

 

Lorentz is the biggest head scratcher for me on this team. What does he do, exactly? Like he's good defensively and good at digging out pucks...but I know a few guys I've played with in pick up at Indian Trail that would produce more.

As someone who has watched every minute of Canes hockey this season I actually don't like it we out hit a team...

He's a 4th line backup, he wouldn't be playing if Paquette was healthy. He's a grinder who can dig pucks out and occasionally make a decent assist, he has no shot whatsoever and is terrible in the face off circle.

He brings the good snacks on road trips. No Great Value Sandwich Cookies in his bag...

Not really. Most of this is self inflicted. Only area we're getting dominated is the faceoff circle.

The puck was in our defensive zone most of the 2nd period... Honestly the worst period I have seen us play so far in this series. We are lucky to only be down 1 and sadly were a post away from being tied

I love physical hockey...but that ain't us right now. We grind boards, we don't try to muscle plays unless we're talking Svech.

Again, self inflicted. We're just being careless. Hopefully Rod is chewing asses at intermission.

      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.
