Rod and assistants need to draw up some actual scoring plays that others have used recently against the Devils. Real strategy vs slinging the puck to the net from the left corner or blue line and hoping it sneaks in.

There, I said it. Coaching.

And good solid consistent goalie play.

A forecheck that actually creates turnovers and scoring opportunities would be nice. Instead of just slinging it across the boards and/or turning the puck over for opponent odd man rush chances. We have turned the puck over entirely too much. Looking at you Burns.

Those odd man rushes have been a result of teams figuring out that our D pinches between the blue lines and we get caught flat footed.  Burns gets lazy and can’t get back. Slavin covers for him sometimes. Teams have figured out us and if they have speed, we struggle. Honestly, that’s why we struggle against bad teams because most of them are fast.   Young and fast but less on skill. They have more speed than skill. 
 

with chatty we play better because his skill on D matches that speed. 
 

Our forecheck is our biggest strength.  Lately on that forecheck we get to cute. 
 

we will be fine 😉.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
