I'm honestly wondering if it's just more of the personnel management issues that have already been admitted regarding Thielen and TMJ.  The thought is almost preposterous until you consider that we called a play designed for a single player, that wasn't on the field and then called a timeout.

He's best as a 4-3 OLB. The only other position he's a decent fit at is SS near the line of scrimmage. Unfortunately he doesn't have a position in a 3-4 and he's definitely not a nickel or FS. Reminds me of when Thomas Davis was drafted and they kept trying to make him a S when it was clear he didn't have the speed to cover on the back end full time.

Not sure why this staff once they decided to move to a 3-4 (and really a 3-3-5 for the vast majority of snaps) decided to hang on to him. Should've traded him this past offseason once they realized he wouldn't be a fit.

A lot of it could be packages and situational, and things are uncommonly misaligning with the situations they want to use him for. 
 

Something like, they thought there would be a lot more throwing against us or some other thing. 
other than that, he has to be an example of a bad fit because we know he can play. 
he hasn’t don’t a lot that I liked, or noticed I mean. Couple plays.

He just doesn't have a "regular" role in this defense. He's sort of a square peg.

      Has Stank become the 2C?

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/3533281/red-hot-stankoven-grows-into-1-st-year-as-hurricanes-2-nd-line-center RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — It had been a while since the Carolina Hurricanes had finished practice, with players coming and going from the locker room. Yet Logan Stankoven was still on the ice, leaving a crowd of reporters patiently waiting at his locker. Such is the dynamic for the 23-year-old as the Eastern Conference's top seed heads into Round 2 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs to face the Philadelphia Flyers. Stankoven has been rolling at nearly a point-per-game pace going back to mid-March, including scoring in every game of Carolina's first-round sweep of Ottawa. Beyond the immediacy of that spotlight, though, is the other piece of Stankoven's story: the Hurricanes are betting he can keep growing into the role as second-line center, coming after spending multiple seasons searching for an answer there.
