The entire team played like hot garbage for 50 out of 60 minutes in this game. No way they win another game in this series. They’re not a bad team but they completely folded against the Lightning and had no answer for their attack and power play.

Yeah our PP has become nothing and our discipline isn't there anymore either.

Still going to pull for a miracle but I would have bet the house on a canes win if you told me we scored 4 prior to the game.

Even the diehard optimists have to see this series is as good as over unless the lightning bench their top line for 3 games and Mrazek is cut from the roster

Mrazek wont see the ice again.... Have a feeling we take game five and bow out in 6.

Eh maybe, if they stay out of the box. Tampa is so deadly on the PP I just can’t see them winning another game.

Agreed. We will circle circle wagons in the next game and lose in Tampa.

It was a great season and it is a shame to see it all be for naught. Glad we are a young team, though. 

It will be interesting to see how we look next year without some guys(Mrazek, Dougie, etc).

This game is going to sting for while, taking a two goal lead and then Mrazek letting in four strait goals between saves was brutal. I think you let them both walk and spend the money elswhere.

Agreed. That is a lot of free money to help us improve. Ned is clearly the future and Dougie is awesome but was just never the same player after that leg injury.

Hoping for someway to get Lehner and then we need another top defenseman that is more defense oriented than offense. I've never liked Offensive Defensemen that much. Only a few.

What a wasted season. Smh.

Yep. Seems to be a trend under Rod. I love the guy but this is slowly becoming like the Bengals with Marvin Lewis. 
Great season that gives the fanbase hope until the playoffs and we choke or are outmatched. 
You are right this season was a waste.

    • Every team does it's homework. More so than any fan.  Brooks, had he not been injured, would have been a first round talent.  I have zero problems with the team (Dan Morgan and company) drafting Brooks in the 2nd.  He is a fantastic talent.  As far as risk, this is the NFL.  Any and every player is exposed to the same brutality that the NFL is.  Despite Brooks latest setback, it doesn't cost the team much.  Our running back room is stacked.  Could they have drafted someone else? Sure. No promise that someone else would have made an impact last year.  Or this year.   When it's your job to do what Dan does, I pray you get it all right. Lord knows that there isn't a single GM that gets it all right.   
    • Dang, we might not be able to create the same magic from last year!
    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.
