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.

      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.
