TDA was a league worst -15.1 defensive goals above replacement in Philly last year. For all intent & purpose, a skating slalom. Imagine what Aho did to him last season and add 10 more of those. That's how bad he was.

Think of the money Chatfield will get if he survives a season covering TDA fug-ups.

Oh, and I'm in the camp this has nothing to do with Pesce. It's to fill the spot Ghost is leaving.

 

I’ve come to the terrible terms that I’m not sure Chatfield will be back after this year. For my money, he’s the best third pairing defenseman in the league and would slot in the top four on a ton of teams.

It sucks but this is what happens when your team develops defensemen as good as the Canes do.

Pesce was still good last year, but he was either injured the second half of the season and playoffs or he has hit the wall.  He wasn't nearly as good as he's been in past seasons, and I am sure the Canes are taking that into account.

He is only 28 though, so it will still take a nice contract to get him signed.  I hope he's back and at 100% if we go that route.

DeAngelo doesn't need to play for a coach like Torts and needs to be a 3rd pairing and QB PP2.  He isn't as bad as he was in Philly last year, but he still is a defensive liability.

Great point here, Torts and TDA were a match made in hell. TDA isn’t great defensively but he isn’t near as bad as he was last year.

It looks like the snag is that this deal is going to part of like a three or four team deal and one the deals includes Torey Krug going to Philly, the problem is he won’t waive his NTC for Philly.

Oof, we gotta figure out an alternative than most likely.

I'm trying to think how we would have to play TDA to compensate for his defense. Maybe pair him with chatfield and play the Stall line with him.

I would also be curious to see him on PP1 with Burns (in games we are losing and get a PP). I know they are similar roles on the power Play, but an extra playmaker could be super helpful

      So, after Sunday's game does that mean we're stuck with Bryce for the foreseeable future?

      Boy we agree on the dink and dunk. I don’t want to watch that kind of football.  I mean okay if you win with it, it could be tolerable but it feels claustrophobic, constrained, limited, boring.  But for some reason I love a smash mouth heavy run game that wins the LOS and gets the backs to the second level.

      I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore

      Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it.
