12/4 Game Thread: Canes v. Sabres Puck Drop 7:30PM

Seeing Skinner jump in when Tro was called for that (maybe a 2 min minor) penalty made me wonder why he wasn't hit with instigating like we have been in a similar situation.

It also made me realize other teams still think the Canes are soft....Skinner never did that when he played here.  He also never played defense and continues to excel at not playing defense.

Glad the boys got a good win through all the adversity with sickness and injury.  A solid Canadian trip would be welcome.

(In my defense, it's hard to keep up with this place and participate in r/canes GDTs...)

As ever, glad to see a win.

The Tro major/misconduct should cost someone their jobs.  I'm fine with a minor but that was ridiculous.

Granted, a number of calls that have gone against us have been real iffy lately.  

Here's hoping we mostly beat the Canadian teams as I'm not a huge fan of their entitled attitudes (the fanbases I mean.)

So just listened to the Rod postgame. He said Freddie was ill as well as 4 other guys who did play. None of them have COVID though and they all test twice a day so we’d know. 
 

Svech had to have a finger repaired, I’m assuming he probably dislocated or broke it it in practice on Friday.

    • I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
    • I have no clue but I haven’t wanted him since the start and my main worry is extending someone I know can’t win it all.
