Martin is pretty good when played in spurts. It’s when he’s treated as a starter that his play inevitably takes a turn for the worse. It also helps having the Canes defense I’m front of him. 

Looking at his career stats I occur with both of your points. He rises to the occasion when played sparingly with the Canes D in front. Martin is very good weapon to have!

The Hockey Guy, who if you follow him you know he’s watched basically every hockey game for the past 7 years, said last night Martin is not an every night type of guy. He never has been and probably never will be.

Yep!  I think we all know that. That’s why Koochie is the guy.  Koochie in 4 years could be the best goalie in hockey.

Player props following the Florida game.

Svech is a power forward in every sense. Anyone besides me notice his PIM are down and he's not taking as many dumb penalties at bad times?

Speaking of D, TDA is playing better, more disciplined and responsible hockey now that his playing time has been decreased. 

Orlov on his off side may be his strength. It certainly gives him more offensive opportunities. He muscled through several Panther players last night and make some key defensive plays.

Also props for the Panthers- Slavin was Slavin and Kotch stopped 45 of 45 SOG (now revised up from 44 SOG).

Now for a reality check- with all the post and bar hits and wide open net chances missed by both sides, this could have easily been a 3-2 game either way. Canes allowed 45 SOG and lost faceoffs 61% to 39%. You can’t do that and expect to beat a team in a series counting on any goalie to save you every time. Canes have to do better the next time they play the Panthers.

      No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.

      I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.

      I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
