Official Canes Off-season Thread

Bright side is the potential to LTIR him get Kane and potentially have him for the playoffs.....The announcement was closely worded it didn't say he tore his achilles today, Just that he was having surgery, it kind of implies it was at least a partial tear when he was acquired (and our push to stack the team in a Tampa esque manner make more sense....  I don't think we try Khadri but I do see us offering a good package for Kane.

If we can get a big fish like Kane then I’d LTIR him and don’t bring him back til the playoffs when we can get away with all that salary on the roster.

That's my thoughts exactly six months is optimistic (depending on the grade of the tear) but this could very well have been something the Canes knew about and anticipated.... Get Kane.... and Patches back for the playoffs in 8 months..... Yeah..... One way or anther the have given the go all offseason of all in, we will swipe Kane, IMO and have come playoffs have what was our Bain become a major strength with two big time scorers.

Honestly not the worst thing that could happen if they replace him.

Just imagine in the playoffs.

Svech - Aho - Turbo

Patches - KK - Kane

Kase - Necas - Jarvis

Drury - Staal - Fast

Marty

They’d go 16-0

I'd honestly say it sets us up for a perfect playoffs scenario, if we can swing the Kane deal (which I've heard we are pushing hard for and now we know why.

That lineup could vary. I can see Necas, Jarvis or KK at 2c or 3c..... 

I honestly see it as

Patches/Aho/Kane

Svech/Jarvis/Turbo

Kase/KK/Necas

Drury/Staal/Fast 

Martinook 

 

If we can swing Kane we will have a monster for the playoffs.

A 33-year old recovering from an Achilles is a lot dicier than a 24-year-old...

I don't like this at all.

I know it sucks but I think it might just be a partial tear… the wording and the time frame almost made it sound like the Canes knew and it didn’t just happen. I’m not saying we are playing cap gymnastics… but we might be.

We are of like mind on this.... The timing ect, cap gymnastics might be exactly what we are doing since Dundon gave the green light to spend and go for a title this year... Combined with the heavy offer we made on Thatchuck it has a look to it that says 3 d chess with the cap.

Well poo. However you guys make a great point about pulling a Tampa.  Kane come on down.  

Kane or JT Miller.... I don't see Kadri happening..... 

 

Sucks but an achilles isn't as bad an injury for a hockey player, Given the way it was announced like MillionDollarCam said its pretty likely this is a partial tear.... Possibly even somthing we knew about when we acquired him.

Maybe why he was so cheap and Vegas let him go for nothing.  What if there was a plan in place the whole time…..

It's likely both sides knew, but for Vegas it was because they were massively over the cap after getting Eichel... The Canes aggressive pursuit of other big name scorers even afterwards hints towards that....

    • If Canales comes back and Bryce doesn’t I would probably prefer to bring in 3 guys he likes from around the league or maybe outside a top ten pick and work through them, give that a shot. Because if we win a few more games we won’t be in the running for the top rated QB prospects anyway. 
    • You mean tepper but yeah I agree about rhule   Baker is a top 3 potential qb that is play for mvp and he is doing it with a slew of injuries
    • There’s too many to reply to so I’ll just say a couple more things then I’m out: 1. It hasn’t been both ways and that’s the point. People saying stuff like “too bad Bryce Young didn’t make that tackle” is a direct result of the ridiculousness of blaming Bryce Young for literally everything. I remember one game day thread a poster unironically blamed Bryce Young for JT Sanders flipping onto his own neck and injuring himself. That post was pied. I literally just read a post blaming Bryce Young for XL dropping a ball on a would-be game winning drive last year. This past week, when Tmac bounced a ball off his hands for an interception, Bryce Young was immediately blamed in the game day thread. Alternatively, people who try to give credit to Bryce Young are immediately told that to credit Bryce Young is taking away credit from Rico Dowdle, OL, whoever, and that they shouldn’t be talking positively about Bryce Young because he doesn’t deserve any credit. 2. Yes, there have always been bad posters, the difference is that back then they were largely derided. Bryce Young’s rookie season, when many of us were simply pointing at the train wreck of the whole team and saying it was maybe a little tough to evaluate Bryce Young when he had no time to throw and slow receivers, and just saying basic stuff like “Bryce Young can physically throw the ball further than 20 yards.” There was an attempt made to limit all those opinions to a single thread, by a mod. This is like saying lunatics running the asylum is normal because there have always been lunatics in the asylum. The difference is before they were patients, now they’re in charge. 3. I know for a fact I am labeled as one of the “Bryce Stans” by many of the usual suspects, but the fact of the matter is they have no idea what my position is on Bryce Young because any attempts at nuanced discussion in the past have been so completely pointless due to never being able to get past the hyperbole. How can we have a serious conversation if you insist he is physically incapable of throwing a football 20 yards? Or if you insist that he somehow duped the Panthers into drafting him just by drinking water? Or if you insist that he should be able to succeed behind one of the worst offensive lines I’ve ever seen (rookie year, not now). And I’m not the only one, there are many who have left the huddle because of it and started a discord server, I’m just too lazy for another app.
