Looks like game 5 is going to be an all rook(as much as possible) game. Game 6 will be the dress rehearsal. Please let FUS be on the game 6 team. He’s still a year out in terms of his physical build but next year. Oh man. If we can get him a half dozen to dozen actual games this year… 

We may have our next Svech finally. Not in terms of play style I should preface but in terms of an NHL ready youngster. FUS is much more of a young TT in play style.

Question for those in the know. 

 

Never been to a hockey game. 

Where does the "home field advantage" 

come into play. Since it's so fast paced. 

 

Like in football you get loud when the other team is on offense. 

 

Do you do the same in hockey in like short bursts or what? 

Line changes....home team gets last line change so they can force the match ups they want.

I know you've been a Panther fan for a while, but you should make an effort to see a live hockey game. It's a helluva good time.

And you'll have the opportunity to see what a pretty well-run professional sports franchise looks like, in stark contrast to the sh!tshow in Charlotte.

Even when the Canes lose, most everyone goes home knowing they gave it their best. You don't see fights in the arena, cursing the opposing fans in the parking lot, etc.

And, with the exception of a couple teams (NYR and Pens), you don't see Hurricane ticket owners giving their tickets to the visiting team.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?

      LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.

      After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
