This team sucks

Too much consistency has created this imo. 

Too consistent a playoff team means guys have more minutes on their legs and more heartbreak of being close but not good enough to win it.

Too many of these guys have been here playing together for a while, which has created some complacency imo.

Bad team, bad time.

Post game from rod last night 

 

“"Not good enough. We've got a lot of guys that aren't pulling their weight. It's plain and simple."

 

Aho Necas Definitely Orlov. Orlov and necas need to ride the pine. 
 

there is going to be a trade for a goalie soon. It has to. 
 

This is the sad part. We are about to fall out of the playoffs…

Here's the good thing. We are deep as far as talent. Teams would murder to have the problem we have.

 

We can package a couple of big pieces for a starting goalie...if we are wise. We can replace the goal scoring, but we absolutely cannot survive giving up bad early goals and blowing leads instantly after we get them.

 

We're putting amazing d in front of our net. Third fewest shots against in the league currently, worst save % in the league by our goalies collectively.

We do limit the other teams shots but it appears to me we let a sh*t ton of those shots be grade A’s.

This is what scared me about all the Canes pre-season Cup picks 

No matter if it's the Panthers or Canes, we can't handle being the favorites, anytime we are expected to win, we blow it 

Even though our inconsistencies in net have been a glaring problem for a while 

I have always known we won't win the cup without a Vezina calibre goalie, we are like the Bolts before they got Vas

Dude, that poo mortified me as a Panthers fan. I am all too familiar with preseason expectations falling flat. It was funny, I knew Canes fans chirping about that spot at #1 but I was sweating bullets.

I think that's a result of our system and the uptick in mistakes/inconsistency. We absolutely run a high risk/reward forecheck. Transition chances and getting off schedule with changes leads to us giving up good looks.

 

There needs to be a message sent. Start pulling up some guys. Guys getting scratched for a few games could be the shot in the arm they need.

    • That is probably a good point that I did not consider. It doesn’t force their hand financially, to declare early. 
    • Realistically he's probably not still going to be under contract when hes good to go again? Unfortunately for him you cant sign him for more than a small one year deal until he can prove hes still a good player... that might not happen.  I think hes played his last down as a panther.
    • It has been going down that backyard ball road with the QBs a long time. It also has made it more difficult to evaluate OL for the pro game.    I agree though that the NIL is making it even worse. Then they get in the league and suck, coaches get fired. Here comes a new system every year for some of them, same as you are talking about in college.    Unfortunately, IMO, the league has responded by taking the path of least resistance offensively.    The only saving grace for the QB problem we identified here is the slotted salaries out of the draft. No more 100 million rookie deals. Which today would be 250 million and even more.  So to me, paying a player that doesn’t bring success in the first two or three years, you can’t do it. Better to take another shot in the draft or reclaim someone else's failure. Given that all staffs are not equal. Look what Shanahan did with Purdy for instance. And their getting off of Lance quickly.    In theory if Canales is a QB whisperer type, which we don’t know he isn’t at least to a higher degree than many (not including the established masters) we should be quicker on the trigger with these QBs. If Bryce doesn’t show out next year we really need to hit the reset.
