I watched a couple of those playoff games and, not having the opportunity to see much of either Calgary or Edmonton during the regular season, I was shocked. I was under the impression Calgary was the better team.

I think everyone thought that Calgary was the better team, but Edmonton let the offense rip during that series.  Calgary's defense looked really slow during that series and Markstrom played well below the level he was playing during the regular season.

So far this season Edmonton looks to be all offense and a below average defense.  I know hopes were high for them, but so far they haven't looked great to me.  I will admit I have only seen them play Calgary and Buffalo - both games they lost.

Calgary has some talent, their defense is probably weaker than their O.  Markstrom can steal games when he's on. 

It will be interesting to see how the Canes match up.  I think our D has been outstanding so far and the PP seemed to finally click a little in Seattle.  I would love the Canes to come home undefeated, but hockey is a grind.

Yeah I’ll be happy with 2 points leaving Alberta.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
