Yes, I'm very aware of Cap Friendly and, if you've red any of my posts, you'd recognize this is one of my main resources.

And, you're missing my point entirely. I'm also very aware of Kochetkov's contract status as well as the fact he will be the backup for the foreseeable future. That's not a point of contention with me, I get it.

The thread and discussion is about which of the 2, Freddie or Raanta, would/should/will keep and what's your basis for that decision?

Andersen's AAV is $4.5M before UFA; Raanta's is $2M (the same as Kochetkov right now).

Could Raanta be a Hurricane for about what Freddie was getting the last 2 seasons? If not, a decent UFA or trade acquisition starting goalie will cost in the neighborhood of $6-7.5M.

Give them each a half a million raise for two years. I’d say more for one year but we got too much to contract next year.

yeah see if we're paying those 3 guys 9.5 say goodbye to at the very least Pesce and to whatever forward on the open market you thought you might have wanted.  I'll take an open market goalie/ trade plus Pyotr's 2m. 

Mrazek is barely an NHL goalie right now and succeeded in front of our defense. Nedjelkovic the same.  Pyotr will be fine at a 12-7-5 clip at worst next season for 2 mil behind a stud goalie without the injury troubles these two dudes have. We have been good at moving on/not providing guys the raises that they fetch on the open market for fitting in Brindamour's system.  I wouldn't quit that now.

 

That's why my answer on this poll is neither as I stated prior.  I want a bonafide #1 who can steal the show less Fred's injury history. Raanta at this point is an older, more oft injured version of Pyotr who has earned himself a raise on the open market. I hope it's not us that obliges him that.

Vegas won by committee, of like 6 goalies.

Goalie play didn't cost us any playoff series. Lack of scoring did.

But we also have never seen an elite goalie in Carolina. Wouldn't that be interesting to see in our system? Could solve a few of the goal scoring problems by itself.

Sure, that would be nice to see. That being said, is that elite goalie going to score for us? Because the 1 to 2 goals we have scored in losses won't get it done most times...

Again, what I love a top-notch goalie? Absolutely.

That being said, I care way more about getting forwards who can put the puck in the net

Look what NJD is doing. They are not settling and aggressively improving their roster. Tired of the Canes hoarding draft picks and prospects. 

I actually am not. We are setting ourselves up to be contenders for a long time.

Continuing to have an excellent farm system is going to keep us an elite team.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
