This isn't even just a win now mode move. We get him through 2024 assuming he's worth a 5th year option. This secondary and dline are going to continue to feed off of each other. Excellent value if he's good. 

Exactly.  Contrast with bringing in Jared Allen in 2015.  Jared Allen did help in 2015, as did Peanut Tillman, for sure.  But one & done, getting the last juice out of Hall of Famers.

This is a totally different scenario.  Don't derail the rebuild or mess with what you've got cooking in terms of team identity and chemistry with these hungry to win, super-athletic young studs.

If Tremble becomes legit quickly and we basically got the 2020 9th overall pick, top CB, to pair with the 2021 8th overall, top defensive draft pick, for basically a mid round pick swap, then just slap me with a pancake sally.

We could be looking at Horn-Henderson-Bouye with Chinn for the playoffs.

Holy mother of god.

You forgot Donte' as well.

I will say this Scott doesnt fug around, its impressive. I wish he was this aggressive about the Offensive line 

Another team would have to be willing to part with GOOD / QUALITY OL. Given the shortage across the league this is less likely to happen which is why BELOW AVERAGE TO AVERGE OL tend to get overpaid in free agency. 

He touched on this in a presser right around the end of camp / pre-season if memory serves.

    • So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.   
    • My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
