@Anybodyhome So about those playoff tickets… 

I still have zero regrets for not making that purchase.

Look, just because the Canes actually won a game they were supposed to (unlike the last 3), doesn't change the fact they are a .500 hockey team for the last 30 days. If they somehow manage to beat Florida, who really has nothing to prove- their spot is secure- they will face these same Panthers in round 1. I like the matchup and I think the Canes have a legit chance to get through the first round.

But, after that, all bets are off.

I was more saying from the luck factor side of things.

Florida can still avoid Boston in the first round, they have something to play for at home

Ned benched 

After stealing that game a week ago I am glad we got to him and he hit the pine.

I liked Ned a lot until he overvalued himself right out of the organization.  He should have been able to put Detroit on his back and carry them to the playoffs this year......

I was at the game and I never heard an announcement that Ned was pulled. Then, I read the stat line and nowhere does it mention he was pulled. As a matter of fact, he is credited with 24 saves on 27 shots on goal; Carolina was credited with 28 shots on goal- that 28th being the empty net goal by KK. Carolina had 5 shots on goal in the final period- Ned getting credit for 4 saves when he was in net.

So, Ned was not benched unless the other goalie came in after the empty net goal for the last 40 seconds of the game.

Ya no one else shows on the stat line. We’re they really empty net for 2:22 seconds? I didn’t think it was that long. Weird.

I thought it was longer, to be honest. I remember looking at the clock when Ned skated off and I thought it was closer to 3 minutes, but I could be wrong.

      BREAKING: Panthers sign QB Kenny Pickett

      By poorboysrev · Posted

      Right...I think they've done really well. No one's going to bat 1000% but they've addressed areas of need and there's no comparison to the overall talent of the team now than when DC and then Morgan got the reigns. This whole season is about seeing how much of a step up can Bryce and this team make. If Bryce can't and last year is as good as it gets for him then at least we have a talented roster for the next guy. I think we're going to be good this season

      BREAKING: Panthers sign QB Kenny Pickett

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I said could, not would. I recognize he has potential based on past performance. Compared to what KP has done, Howell has more potential and the physical traits to make noise. KP has small hands and a weak arm. Not something you want in even your backup QB.  I've been hammering since last off-season before we re-signed Dalton, improve the room. Other than getting younger, I don't see how anyone can say we legitimately improved the room or even tried. We might as well have signed Josh Rosen.  Dalton is still on the roster for now. That's 3 QBs unless we trade or cut him. He's still Bryce's mentor after all. Do you believe we are going to draft someone with potential and give them a legitimate opportunity to develop from the practice squad? Are we going to carry 3 QBs on the active roster? 4 for a developmental rookie? Are we going to potentially cut KP if we draft a rookie and he's outperformed? Doubtful. Cutting Dalton(if we can't trade him) and KP would be 8m in wasted cap space.  I chose Howell as an example because he showed promise in his only full season as a starter. You could plug in another name with the physical traits and potential and what i said would still apply. KP showed almost nothing and was benched. I genuinely don't care if it’s rookie pick as long as there is the potential to develop into a future NFL QB.  As much as I can't stand him, Bellichek was always developing a number 2 QB even with the GOAT as his starter. The wisdom of that was evident when Cassell came in when Brady was hurt week 1 and went 11-5 and almost made the wildcard, which 11-5 gets you almost any other year. I give credit where it's due though. Cassel and Jimmy G both came into the league as developmental QBs, potential QB1s, and went on to have careers.  You never know if you never try. KP feels like a punt in addressing the most important position on the field. Bryce has never played 2 full games of franchise QB level football back to back.  If Bryce progresses, are you ready to offer a 280m 5 year extension based off a one hit wonder year? If Bryce regresses and we need a QB in 27, are we going to trade a fortune away again to trade up to 1 to get one? Are you ready to do the past 3 years all over again?  To me, it's not about Kenny Pickett. It's about the move itself. It was a feeble attempt to improve the QB room. We better hope Bryce succeeds, because if he doesn't, we literally have no backup plan right now.

      IOL that early isn’t good value at all. We have a LT who might not ever be good again and a RT that might retire soon. T seems deep early in this draft, so I’d go there in the 1st.
