I’m not sure but I hope that gets it done. The more I think about it, Meier is exactly what we need in the playoffs. We are essentially adding another Svech to the lineup. I’m going to be disappointed if NJD wins the arms race. 

But at what cost… was really hoping I could find a gif for that.

I’d rather give up Ponomarev than Morrow but I also realize as much as Dundon doesn’t want our window to close, it will. One Cup would be worth it for me. Meier moves the needle. Suzuki who I had written off is suddenly healthy and looking like the player we thought he could be. He has pedigree. Drury has lost some of his luster and so has Morrow imo. Nikishin is the only prospect I’m vehemently against moving. 
 

I think a package of Drury, Morrow, 1st is a pretty good offer, but probably not enough. 

I’m also just not worried about a rebuild. I don’t think we will have to endure another decade like we did before Dundon took ownership.

Yes don’t move Nikishin please, he’s my only untouchable.

Ponomarev and Niki are my untouchables. Drury, Morrow, Suzuki. I’m all good with. We need to cultivate our “2nd Gen” prospects. Most of our current 1st Gens probably won’t ever get a spot here in the next 2 years, they are our commodity at this point. Pono and Niki we need to cultivate.

I guess the Canes didn't value Nino enough for ~$5ish million dollars through the end of next year and a 2nd round pick.  Surprising, know they had talked to the Preds.

I don't think there's any interest in Duchenne, salary retained or not.

I am not convinced we are out on Timo, but Waddles needs to understand that to get you have to give.  Yes, you are in a "bidding" war with NJ, you think the whole salary cap thing puts you in a position of strength, you don't want to pay too much BUT you have to play ball.  Give them the 1st (2023), 2nd (2024), Drury and Morrow.  If it takes giving them the 2023 2nd do it. 

If the Timo thing doesn't fall our way Adam Henrique and Schmaltz are in play.  I know underwhelming.

LeBrun reporting that the Canes are officially out on Meier as of this morning.

Two things can be true.

Maybe are offer wasn’t the best (or maybe it was)…

OR

Maybe the Grier brothers (one works for San Jose and one works for New Jersey) prefer to do business with each other. There’s a lot of personal connections between those two organizations and Meier also has some very close friends and countrymen on the Devils as well.

This could simply be a situation where Meier was not interested in Carolina.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.

      Adam Thielen on Young

      Theilen is about to retire. I dont care about him sticking around. Lets say you did and he retires at the end of the year. Now that connection is gone next year and it's just another excuse for regression that was just held off.

      Short term is the key point. Those first two games without him where pretty bad. They still aren't back to where they were offensively but they are getting better. Hopefully Tet continues to improve and Coker eventually returns - and stays healthy.
