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.

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.

      To all the analysts who said "Caps in 5", thank you for telling us their departure time.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
