So, last night was pretty much a one-sided affair, but rest assured Columbus won't look like that in a week.

But, to my observation. It is just me or has Paul Stastny looked every bit of his 36 years, not seeing much ice time and one of the few roster additions that doesn't look very comfortable on the ice with this team?

Oh, and the Canes are $4.2M over the cap as of this morning.

We gotta figure out that cap.

Bear ($2.2M) and Dronov ($770k) are out. Chatfield ($762k) stays. That's $2.2M saved.

Kase ($1.5M) and Pederson ($750k) are out. Drury ($925k) and Noessen ($762k) stays. Another $500k or so saved.

After that? I dunno.....

 

Gardiner LTIR. His cap hit is currently factored in if you add up to totals. Also I’d be shocked if Kase wasn’t on the team, he’s not playing tonight so it’s pretty much guaranteed that he’s staying.

By my count the Hurricanes had 7 players on the ice that were not competing for to be depth/fourth liners.... We won't be them 8-1 most likely but I suspect 4-1 or 5-2.

Rees gets the Canes on the board poking one past Craig Anderson and a few seconds later, Malte Stromwall snipes one past Anderson.

Canes 2 - Sabres 3

15 left in the third.

It's basically the Chicago Wolves vs the Sabres lol. Maybe three canes playing and only KK above fourth line or third pair.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.

      there is a 100 mile long list of NFL players and coaches going to bat and defending horrible play from teammates.
