Seravalli also mentioned Nick Schmaltz is being shopped by Zona and that the Canes may be interested, he also mentioned that the Canes are still interested in Kane.

Schmaltz would be a nice pick up if we don't land Timo.

Again, I think GMDW has a shopping list and if he doesn't land his #1 he has some backup plans.  I also wouldn't be surprised if a 3rd pair D-man is acquired for a small price.

We have a very good team, we just need to stay healthy and we need Freddy to play well.  Raanta always scares me, but hopefully he'll play as well as he did in the playoffs down the stretch.

I think the Rangers may be messing around with their chemistry by getting Kane.  He feels "spurned" by them, but it's the one team he really wanted to go to along with Toronto from what I read.

How do the Rangers acquire him when they are up against the cap with a deal that favors them?  It's odd, they have to get help from another team so it's going to cost them something.  At any rate I didn't want Kane here simply because he doesn't want to be here.  So he can take his prima donna ass right to New York. 

If the Canes feel like they are Cup contenders then they have to respond to everything going on in the East.  The Bruins gave up a lot to Washington in that Smith trade to get Orlov and Hathaway, with the Wild helping out taking on 50% of Orlov's salary for a 5th round pick.

It comes down to the Canes and the Devils for Timo in my opinion.  Carolina is in better position financially to make it happen, although we will have to give up a 1st and two solid prospects (Drury and Morrow?) or possibly a 1st, 2nd, and a prospect.  NJ is not budging on giving up Mercer so I just don't know what they have to offer that can beat a package we can put together, but anything is possible.

It's getting interesting!

Rangers can make it work by shipping out a couple of guys and adding a third team to retain an additional 25% of Kane’s contract. They’ll get Kane retained at 75%.

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By trucpfan · Posted

      This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.

      Give Legette another season?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
