Well with the big splash in the panthers realm I’m just getting around to checking canes news.

All three injured are at least skating. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see Pesce at least on the long west coast road trip. Nino dunno, Raanta dunno. Necas & Fast “are not feeling well” though and held out of practice today. But I haven’t seen any call ups so we must be expecting to be able to field a full roster tomorrow night. 
 

Jarvis was with Aho and Svech today too.

Sounds like no Necas tonight but maaaayyyybbeeee Nino. Fast And Nino skated but Necas did not. Pesce wasn’t on the ice either. 
 

Raanta was concussed but he skated today and is feeling better according to Rod I think he starts tomorrow night.

Lyon looked solid and Leivo played decent, thankful for their service but excited to see what a fully healthy Canes lineup can do.

The real thing here is…. who sits?

I’m not sure if it will be a popular opinion but I’d probably sit KK.

Svech - Aho - Jarvis

Turbo - Trocheck - Necas

Nino - Staal - Fast

Lorentz - Stepan - Marty

That’s a tough one but I think it is Jarvis. People are bound to get knicked up as the season goes on and Jarvis will get plenty of play time. KK simply needs to get in a position to take more shots, his two way has been good not sure about his direct defense. He’s 5th or 6th in hits. I’d hate to bench 6 million until we are sure he isn’t producing at a level he should be. Keep Jarvis practicing with the lines and rotate him in to give guys a rest every few games.

I’m gonna be honest, the best KK has looked so far this year was on the fourth line with Stepan and Marty.

Well because he’s the best shooter out of that bunch by a mile. Stepan and Marty are both close guys. We are only getting close to 20% of the season he’s got a long way to find his feet here. Switching a guy out every few games for Jarvis to keep him playing if there is no injuries will go a long way to managing workload for the season as things start to get more crazy before the Olympics.

    • Which is why I'm all for trading Lamelo. Guy misses half of every season. I swear he just likes to sit on the bench to show off his street clothes. I think it negatively impacts the other guys who do the same. If guys don't want to play, they don't need to be here. Coach and gm need to get stricter
    • See, I have a different view of it. I think that just the opposite is very true, and often proven on our very own team.  Look at the impact that CMC had when he was here.  Look at how bring in two top rate IOL to play guard last season made a huge difference in finally getting a stable front for Bryce to live behind. It took a while for it to bear fruit, but those last games were just relevatory. And off ball linebackers like Luke Kuechly, not just running a defense but dictating the game when he's on the field, truly remarkable what a difference that makes. Personally, he had as much or maybe even more to do with that Super Bowl appearance as Cam did.  What I see in the NFL is teams trying hard to cover up for a lack of good linebackers by stacking the D-line. But it gives them a crust defense, one that is hard and crunchy on the outside but a feast within. Linebackers shouldn't just rule the middle of the field, but should be directing traffic and working as enforcers.  But hey, whatever. "Devalued" positions often come back to bite you in the ass when they are neglected. Ask anyone who has had to clean up the mess left behind by a former college coach who took over a pro team and brought their college recruiting mindset in. Yanno, like Matt Rhule did.   
    • I see it this way--XL was raw.  Raw players when drafted who are forced to start immediately are very raw players in the NFL-- How is he helped? TMac will shift the focus of the defense away from XL.  XL will be more experienced.  He will have an offseason of jugs work.  He is a very good athlete.  He can only get better.  Wallace?  Same thing.  He will get better with an improved defensive front and the addition of these heat-seeking head hunters at S.  I think about the players we will have on defense in 2025 that we did not have in 2024. Derrick Brown. DE Brown III NT Wharton DE Jones Edge Moehrig S Princely. Edge Scourton. Edge Ransom. S Cam Jackson NT Roseboom  LB While we may not know what we have, we know what we don't have--
