Predictions before this game. Where the Canes ending up this season?

Me personally? I think we end the season in the 2nd round. Offseason was meh in the grand scheme. We need scorers and we just don't have enough consistent ones. Also, please move on from Raanta and get the boy Pyotr as the backup goalie by now for Christ sake.

Blue line is stronger and we have more scoring going into the season than we did last year. If younger players take another step in their progression IE. Jarvis, Necas, KK, Svech comes back stronger and Tuevo has a bounce back year, we will be more than okay. Burns, Orlov, and TDA are scoring machines on the BL.

Who was available that you wanted to trade for or sign?

I wanted them to make the trade for Marner in the offseason. That was the rumor and it didn't happen.

Thinking these guys take another step is what I've thought they would do for a while. They haven't. Necas took a step last year, but he still sucked in the Playoffs.  Don't get me started on Svech. That man went 20 full games last year without scoring a goal before he tore his ACL. It's past time he became a superstar. 

Again. The past 4 years have shown us, unless you have that go to guy scoring, you're not going to go far in the Offs. This team has been the number 1 defensive team for a while now, and what has that got us? It's past time to try to find that go to guy scoring and we STILL do not have that on the team. 2nd round exit is my prediction. But hey, we're going to defend the hell out of that puck. LOL.

Not to mention Necas, TT and our second defensive pair are in contract years. That alone will keep a fire under their ass.

Necas was in a contract year a year ago and had one of his worst years. That's how we got him on a 2 year deal for damn near nothing.

Not sure that's what I stated, but he is a consistent goal scorer. 

WTF does him going past the second round have to do with anything? Are you high this morning?

We made the CF without Svech and a broken Tuevo. We destroyed the Devils along the way and despite what anyone else thinks, we outplayed Florida every single game in my opinion. We just got goalied. There’s a luck factor and the playoffs can be a crapshoot. Vegas is built very similarly to us talent wise and they won the SC by destroying that same Florida team. I’d say we are deeper than them.

      First Round Poll: Position Drafted

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      I want something else, but I've got to say I think we grab an OT in the first. We are looking at future issues at OT on both sides of the line after this season (and that's IF there are no further injuries). If Icky can come back, he's going to be somewhat expensive. Moton is winding down his career (and I hate to see him go, but his cost vs value curve is tightening up about as fast as his sciatica is on Monday mornings).  In a perfect world, we grab the best OT available and let him learn behind Rasheed Walker, Moton and the rest of our experienced linemen. If Icky comes back next year or late this season, that's great. If not, and Walker proves to be too expensive, we have our guy in place. If Icky does come back, we slide the guy to OT and move ahead, with five years of reasonable costs for OT. If I had my drothers, though, I want a TE or MLB right off the bat, the best one available.  Just not another WR.  We need to let our current trio cook a bit more. I'm not completely given up on XL. Third season tells the tale on WRs and he deserves at least that. Plus, on first rounders, grab someone who is involved in either every offensive or defensive play. Get the mileage guys here.

      First Round Poll: Position Drafted

      By Basbear · Posted

      Here is my current guess about the first round, I feel Proctor is in the 8-25 group. Id personally draft him as high as 5th overall and be very happy. Again I don't understand the hate and lollololollolllo @ the 2nd round talk and you are right there lots of it.  You got Frank at everyone's #1, then my guess its bailey at #2, then a run of 4 OSU studs and now you are in fog of who or what is next. Love * should go no lower than 7th.....From that 8 pick to 25, its a mess. The whole draft doesn't have a good consensus like years before. Many players feel like 15 pick on this team board and 52nd pick on others.
