So, no defensive player scored today? Might have been the best overall game so far.

No defensive goals and I believe only two assist. But that doesn’t detract anything from the blue lines they played stupidly good. Outside of a few chatty, ghost mishaps they just completely shut down the islanders.

The canes did not end up practicing today. Rods availability say 11:45(so probably 12:15 for him) I doubt he will say who we are drawing in if drury can’t go though. 
 

Choices ranked in my estimation of Rod,

Stromwell > Rees > Pono. Though I’d prefer Pono get some NHL time.

If some pro member who’s been here longer than I the newbie wants to start a game 5 thread, I’ve been reading various sports news sources and have some thoughts I’ll post there. My thoughts are worth two cents though lol.

We’ll see if Panthers Fan 69 posts up.

Stromwall actually didn’t get called up, I wonder if he’s headed back to Russia.

Sweden and could be, why we didn’t call him up I have no idea. He was the stat leader for the wolves. 
 

So Rees or Pono then? Capfriendly is listing rees, Ville and Suzuki on the active roster currently while the rest are “non-roster forwards” I’d like to give Pono a game, I’d be ok with Rees, Ville is too young and I’m just not sold on Suzuki. Though Suzuki did have a better year in Chicago this go round.

By Russia, I mean the KHL, that’s where he was playing previously.

I’m not putting Suzuki in, guy is made of glass, there’s no reason to throw him into the lions den.

To my knowledge, Ponomarev is primarily a center as where Rees can play the wing.

If Drury can’t go and we don’t go 11-7, I’d expect Rees to get the call.

Ah gotcha. I suppose we could put Stepan back in too. I figured he was injured too if Rod didn’t play him.

      In addition to Evero there's one large change that likely should happen.

      By Saca312 · Posted

      It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.

      CBS Sports brief discussion about questionable Canales decision making

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
