What the fug 

 

Pesce gone. Skjei bumped up, Tony in Skjei's old shoes.

 

Only thing I can think. He's a known, and though he's not great, we know we can win playoff games with him on the ice.

 

That said....please no. Lol. 

 

 

Edit: I say bumped up for Skjei as in "seen as our 3rd dman. He's still a second pair but our 3rd pairing is too cohesive and we need that guy who can get plugged the way we did Skjei

Not sure this has anything to do with Pesce especially since Philly is retaining 50%. Remember, Tony D is a righty and the only player that really played their off side at any point last year was Chatfield. There’s no way our organization sees him as a top four defenseman.

I think we could see a defensive unit of:

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Chatfield - DeAngelo

DeAngelo was great on our PP and the organization probably wants him back to jump start it again.

Unlikely, the retention makes it very likely that Pesce will be back. If the Canes took TDA’s full cap hit then I’d be concerned but the Canes are just going back to what they know works on the PP and that’s Tony D.

It’ll be:

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Chatfield - DeAngelo

Another reason I’ll guarantee this has nothing to do with Pesce is because Tony D only has one year left on his contract.

The Canes aren’t foolish enough to move Pesce and replace him with a guy who’s in the same situation he’s in.

Tony D is a quick fix for our PP, take it to the bank.

The defense will be:

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Chatfield - DeAngelo

Ghosts cap hit to play on the bottom pairing was $4.5M, TDA’s will be half that at $2.5M.

Ok, theoretically, let's just say Peace isn't going anywhere. Let's say we give him his payday and Aho waits out for his money next off-season.

How much of our available money gets tied up in the Peace deal? Because there's no chance he's taking a cut, at least I wouldn't think. At best he'd eat it all up, we're moving SOMEBODY. So what is the play?

We have a poo ton of available money.

With Staal’s and Tony D’s contracts factored in, we have right around $21M in space.

Throw Pesce in there at $5M and we are down to $16M.

Svechnikov - Aho - ???

Teravainen - Kotkaniemi - Necas

Martinook - Staal - ???

Noesen - Drury - Jarvis

Rees

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Chatfield - DeAngelo

???

???

 

I’d factor in

$2M for the backup goalie

$4M for the starter

$3M for the 3LW

$7M for the 1RW

2 right-handers on the third pair?

I thought it might be a move to plug the Ghost hole, but it also means you only have 2 left-hands on the blue line.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By dep · Posted

      Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4

      The ickey ekwonu question...

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.

      Evero and the pass rush

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
