Joel Edmundson might be available. I'd take him back! 

Timo, OReilly, Toews, Larkin, Edmundson. We need to grab one of the centers and either Timo or Edmundson. I think the honeymoon is over for the FO after this season. They need to show they are interested in improving and actually doing something by the time trade deadlines approach. If they sit back and do nothing and we quickly exit the playoffs yet again, they should be on the hot seat next season.

Relax my dude. It’s still the regular season.

im just tired come playoff time, everyone goes quiet and turns a complete 180 and we go back home again.

That’s fair. But we still have This  year to write this years teams history. Minus last night, going into the allstar break everyone would agree we were the best team in the league. Even myself, we need step back and not over react. Rod knows what we need to do.

The fact remains. This team as is will not win the Cup. I’m all for sustaining our window but we could have a very different team in just 2 years with the amount of UFA/RFAs coming off the books. This team NEEDS a consistent scorer. Svech, Necas, Aho all disappear for long stretches and in the playoffs that’s not going to cut it - especially against those NHL darlings like the Rangers who are going to get PP opportunities and convert on a lot of them. If it takes Jarvis+ to get Meier, I would make that trade today. The front office acknowledged that deficiency with the Patches trade so I trust them to make a game changing trade before the deadline.

The trade will happen and it will be impactful.

The Canes have proven more than once they can beat the Bruins, the Caps and Tampa Bay. The team they cannot get past is the Rangers, who aren't as good as any of the 3 teams I just mentioned. The Rangers run a very simple offense, but the Canes are very aggressive puck defenders. This is a problem when playing the Rangers, because they always have someone breaking to the middle of the ice the minute the Canes get too deep defensively. The result is the breakaways you saw Saturday night.

tbh, until they turn it on in the playoffs and play like they should, I havent been buying into the hype of the regular season. I just dont trust the team yet enough to buy into it.  I would be fine if we lost in one of the rounds in the playoffs as long as we played like we should. The complete disappearing act is what bothers me most from this team.

      Draft Week Rumors, Leaks and Media Draftniks Final Mocks

      By PleaseCutStewart · Posted

      Hard to interpret some of Brugler's opinions. Capable of running a robust route tree sounds like a lazy thing to say - I'm sure just about every slot TE is capable of running a full route tree... I want to know if he is currently able to (which from tape leads me to a no). Granted, it's pretty common for most receivers/TE not having a full route tree developed before they get drafted. Agility/acceleration after the catch hasn't shown up on his tape (at least his Oregon tape) for those dig/out breaking routes while it has for the seam and slant routes. Agree he has a good physical build and he is very good running seam routes. His build definitely helps him to shield defenders and create a large target point for the QB. Drops were a concern, but it could be focus drops just like T-Mac was/is prone to. Run blocking is an accurate statement, but again, we have only seen him run block in the slot/backfield - inline blocking is a whole different animal. With his athleticism, he definitely has a high ceiling. I just think he also has a low floor and don't like taking that big of a risk on a mid 1st rounder. I think this is a deep TE draft and would much rather target one in the 3rd or later. He's very boom or bust to me - bust in terms of being worth a 1st round pick, not an out of the NFL in a few years type bust. I feel like he gives me Evan Engram vibes. Not saying that Evan Engram was/is a bad NFL player, just that most people would agree he shouldn't have been drafted in the 1st.

      I mean I would love 6-1. It’s funny the hurricanes usually dominate the first game and win by three or four goals. But keep the second game close. It would be nice if it’s the reverse of that tonight.

      Brugler has him as TE1 and going to the Ravens in the first.  Apparently Sadiq's football IQ is pretty high (interviewed very well).  Also he was an WR and CB in high school.  This is why I always thought his route running was solid.  I'm sure it needs some polishing but for a TE it's pretty good. nfl.com Built like a bodyguard with a compact, well-defined frame. Capable of running a robust route tree. Gets in and out of breaks with good snap and separation. Vandalizes defensive seams with impunity against man coverage. Survives collisions with catches thanks to his hand strength. Shows off agility and acceleration after the catch. Fits up run blocks with proper positioning and base width. Grips and presses forward with moving feet to stay connected. -Again I don't know if we should take him but if he goes to the right team he could become a scary weapon at the next level.  I just like him as a prospect.
