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.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By electro's horse · Posted

      Wow I can’t believe the panthers tried to trade up, failed, but still got the guy they wanted to trade up for. I wonder if anyone else has ever said that next you’ll tell me they had Hunter and Brazzell graded as first rounders.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option is a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The pattern it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.  Probably should have been drafted day three anyway. The other was way over drafted.

      We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.
