We need a goalie.

We don’t have the cap space to take his contract. Plus the jets are good so why let him go? He’s at what 6.75M? Nah. 
 

I’d say bring Perets up LTIR Raanta and make Pyotr #1 at least until Christmas. 

Don’t we have the cap space now that Freddie is out?  Also, if you IR Raanta that will open up more space. I bet wads could make it work.

Won’t help next year. 5M is our max if we bring a goalie in and that’s a hell of a lot for a goalie. Who isn’t named Saros, Vas, Shesterkin or Sorokin. We need to let our Russian get his chance to loose the net.

SAT line needs to be a thing even though Tripp has been pushing the Svech-Aho non-chemistry narrative. I call BS. I don’t see us retaining Necas in the offseason. Let him go spend time on 4.

The canes were at their best when the SAT line was a thing. Plus I call BS to. That Vegas OT game two years again, AHO To Svech for the game winner was beautiful. Also, Svech stuck up for aho on the ice against the rangers this year. Sometimes the players are just better in game Vs practice. Remember x-clown with Smitty?

pretty frustrating that we can point out the weaknesses way before the season begins and those weaknesses then show up again. We knew that we needed better goaltending in the offseason. We got the best out of Raanta and Anderson and we gambled that it would continue into this year which it didnt. Now we have to scramble to find another option to pair with pytor who may or may not even be ready to be a goalie 1 yet.

Did he say something, or just practice observations?

Haven’t listened to the post practices yet. But Rod AND Staals mentality post game was the writing is very much on the wall. As for Raants nobody said anything changed at any position which leads the the assumption of Raants is still 1A. Hopefully canes_pr will put out the post-practice interview soon.

The way this season started and after last night's debacle, if this were many other teams in the league, RBA might be out of a job.

I'd really like to know what went on during the 3rd period that RBA thought it was a good idea to leave Raanta.

Maybe RBA was sending a message to the entire squad. Maybe he thought it better to let them get embarrassed than to intervene.

Paul Coffey might be a good choice.

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
