I think we will. For the past two years, Fox and Hurney have been on the hot seat and have at least attempted to bring in some impact players (moreso 2008 than last year).

I wouldn't be surprised if we went after a big name wide-receiver through free agency.

I kind of felt the same, but you have to remember the lockout getting closer and closer. If we go after a big name, it's unlikely they would just want a throw away contract...

Just really hard to say with a lot of things changing.

I don't see a big contract without a labor deal.

Richardson is trying to pinch pennies with this 2011 year looming.

Exactly he is practicing fiscal restraint and responsibility....

The top players will get into huge FA bidding wars and their value will be inflated... As we will find out today, Richardson is not going to over play... We will bring in some low key role players as we usually do.

Lame duck coach and GM with the threat of a lockout in 2011 makes me think no. The same reason why we aren't going to rush to lock up more but we will 1st round tender him. It would be difficult to pass on Kampman but ultimately I think the team we have now will look a lot like the team that takes the field in 2010.

Well I hope all this fiscal restraint doesn't mean I have too pay too see a suckass team beacuse Richardson wants too be spot man on this labor issue. While JJ and Snyder build winning teams. I think we need too atleast use some of the money on replacements for Pep and WR help for smith and Moore. No matter what people think about Pep their is nobody on this team as it stands that can replace that kind of production and impact.

It's a free country Bro... you don't have to pay... If you don't want to support then don't Watch.

Richardson is a good owner....

Correction.... While JJ and Snyder Continue to overspend for under acheiving teams

Whens the last time money bought them a superbowl, nfc championship, or even more than 1 playoff wins???

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
