Matt Moore that's easy. We need so see what we have in him. And honestly if you guys thought he was going to into NE and throw all over the field in his 5th start in 2 years against one of the best coached teams you are delusional. You could tell he was nervous out there yesterday. We are going to have to let Matt marinate in the starters role for a bit to see if he can truly be the guy. I wasn't at all discouraged by what I saw yesterday. He needs more reps.

Jake would not do any better if not worse and he is a veteran who is "supposed" to be good. If Matt can suck less Jake and at least give us a competitive offense than I'd say it's encouraging coming from un drafted player in his second year.

Some say that if Jake was out there yesterday with similar numbers to Matt that we would have grilled his ass a new one. Well yes sure we would, the expectations are completely different. Jake is a 7 year starter who is expected to make this offense go. Jake putting up sub-par, below average numbers all season is not acceptable.

Matt's wasn't that bad yesterday. Yes he overthrew some guys but Moose also had hands of stone and every time we started to get something going we got a stupid ass penalty.

I will take the guy who can score more points than the other team.

The problem with counting on Jake for points is that a lot of his turnovers also wind up giving points to the other team.

We know what we have in Delhomme. I still think he could be a viable backup next season, but his starting days are done.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
