Gardiner will more than likely be spending this year on LTIR… again.

Quick run down of the lines in practice today.

Turbo - Aho - Jarvis

Svech - KK - Necas

Stastny - Staal - Fast

Drury - Stepan - Noesen - Martinook - Kase


No mention about of the defensive pairings but imagine they were:

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

DeHaan - Bear

Chatfield (R) - Coghlan (R)


Then obviously the goalies:

Andersen

Raanta

Please stay healthy Anderson..... That's is the NHLs deepest lineup and will be adding Patches in Feb..... Health here matters most if Burns/Anderson and when he's back Patches stay healthy this is a cup contender.

One interesting note is Dzingel is with the prospects rather than the main roster group, definitely appears like he’s destined to play in Chicago.

Canes do have a good group of prospects in camp this year outside of Dzingel.

Dzingel, MacEachern, Stromwall, Gunler, Pederson, Lajoie, Dronov, Lagesson, Orr, Robidas, Pashin, Mattheos, Tieksola, Montgomery, Suzuki, LaBate, Farrance, Mendel, Rees, Honka, Murray, Seeley, Ponomarev, Kochetkov, Sawchenko, Vondras, and Hamrla.

Didn’t see Fitzgerald among the prospect group so I’m guessing he’s hurt as he was included on the training camp roster.

Would have liked to seen Rizzo, Wall, Fensore, and Puistola in camp but I’m guessing the first three are getting ready for their college seasons and the latter is staying overseas.

In addition to the above: Bokk, Koivunen, Heimosalmi, Reunanen, and Sellgren will all be overseas.

On an interesting note, a couple of the players that are part of the prospect team are tryout players or on a Wolves contract, not every player that’s on a Wolves contract was invited to camp by the Canes, so the Canes must like a few of those guys on a Wolves contract.

Additional prospects that are overseas or still in juniors include: Slepets, Webber, Mercuri, Nybeck, Nikishin, Nystrom, Guslistov, Naumov, Quapp, Blake, Morrow, Pelevin, Grudinin, Lucius, Forsmark, Perevalov, and Trikozov.

Was reported on WRAL sports on the late news last night that Gardiner has "suffered a setback" and is not participating in camp.

I'm not a cap guy, but how long do we have to carry him and at what point does it become counterproductive? I mean, he's an okay blue-liner, not a franchise player. Why are we going into year 3 without him on the ice?

Last year of his contract, they’ll stash him on LTIR to free up his cap space and then they’ll be done with the situation next year.

Gardiner’s contract was horrible, only one worse was Semin’s.

Ya like MDC said we are in the best case scenario I’d we LTIR him. The only one to lose would be Tom having to pay him for no play. And you know what if we need a blue-liner come playoff time we could always pull a Tampa.

Apparently it was a pretty spirited practice today and Rod was pleased.

One of the younger guys that’s been impressing is Vasily Ponomarev. Ponomarev spent some time in the KHL last year before coming over and joining the Wolves. In the 29 games that he played for the Wolves last year, Ponomarev recorded 4 goals, 12 assists, and 16 points.

In other news, Freddie now has a Lego man on his bucket.

His setback is sucking on a stupidly deep team with a cap hit 4x his value.

    • Idk man, I think it’s necessary.  There’s people working 9-5s everyday that get told poo about what they aren’t and what they’re not capable of and they’re working for scraps.  These guys are making millions.  People are watching and invested because their team and fandom is a part of their identity and a big source of pride.  When someone like Bryce comes in and is given chance after chance after chance after proving he is not worthy of the position he’s being gifted, and he continues to be the biggest reason above any that we are losing, yeah…  I think it’s fair to call a spade a spade.  Am I saying Bryce the person is trash?  Bryce the person is a piece of poo?  Absolutely not.     I came up in an era, especially in basketball, where if you were fuging up people heckled the poo out of you.  I played in rec leagues as a teen where the fuging parents were calling kids trash and yelling poo like “TURNOVER!!!  TURNOVER!!!”  “CANT DRIBBLE!”  “CANT SHOOT!”  And that’s adults screaming that poo to kids like we were in the fuging Rucker lol.🤣🤣🤣  I went on to play basketball at a collegiate level and with professional players in different settings.  What those experiences as a kid taught me was to see if there is any merit to what people are saying, and if there is, then work my ass off til they can’t say that anymore.  Come back better, tougher, harder.  And I did.  If kids can figure that poo out, an adult calling another adult who is bad at his job while making millions and millions of dollars will be just fine.  
    • I have tried to like this team, lord knows I have tried. BY9 is a nice young man, if I had a daughter he can take her to prom, but he ain't QB1 and he's not Cam or Delhomme Chuba is a average RB, he isn't Stephen Davis, he isn't J-Stew McMillan has the makings of a good WR, but he isn't 89/Moose D. Brown is a great player, but if the game was on the line I want Kris Jenkins       I miss this brand of football, even in the bad Jake games the games were entertaining It has been nearly 8 years now of watching numb football
    • I'm not so sure. Something about the whole Frank/Bryce situation seemed off from day 1. Bryce didn't fit Frank's QB mold as well as Stroud, then he basically gives up when Bryce is named starter in preseason but gets virtually no reps in games. Then he looks completely unprepared and Dalton steps in in Seattle, has a decent game under immense pressure, and it's right back to Bryce. All his mechanics are terrible and he's having the worst rookie season ever and Frank doesn't bench him?  You dont have to be a conspiracy theorist to know Bryce wasn't ready to be a day 1 starter. Everything with Bryce, then coaches, and the FO seemed forced.
