Everybody keeps saying one year rental, but I thought he was threatening to sit out without a deal.  Isn’t that why New England let him go?  Otherwise they just would have kept him for the year.  I might be wrong, but I am assuming we are giving him something.  Maybe just a front loaded contract for this year with voidable back years added.  I don’t know a lot about the contract process to be honest.

Patriots had $54,000 in cap space.  They now have over 5 million.  Gilmore was costing them $400,000 a week to sit on the bench.  Beyond that, Gilmore lives in Rock Hill.  From what I've seen hes ok playing out the year for us and negotiating after the year or looking at FA then.  This is more of a prove it chance for him, while also being able to live at home.

I think his agent wasn't seeing offers he wanted since hes been injured for a while now.

Hey, we disagree. I don’t think he’s at their level either. He’s having a good year as part of a good defense, but I think we tend to overvalue our players. I don’t think he’ll get that money for one good year.

That's going to be fun this offseason...

DJ's agent: We want $15M/year for 5 years.

Fitterer: Gilmore just told us he'd sign for 12M/year for 3.

DJ's agent: [...]

I think for sure figures were traded.......and the panthers are looking around.....as they should.

I member richard marshall stating he wanted to be the highest paid CB........Djack may have the same feels.........

I called the tag for DJ and was laughed at, that remains a option in my book.

One thing to keep in mind, if we don't end up keeping Gilmore and he signs somewhere else, we're most likely going to get a comp pick for it.

I didn't think of that. Depending on our signings, you'd think he'd generate at least a 6th round comp pick for us.

Heard they signed Jamie Collins back after making this move so the cap space was needed.

Options…lots of options.  Resigning Gilmore or DJax is totally up in the air.  We have ridiculous secondary options right now.

If someone can sum up our draft picks in the next couple drafts they are a genius.  Amazing movement and juggling by Fitty.

    • 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.
