Mehhh we win more than losing drafting just look at the pipeline 

Recently but a lot of Rutherford’s picks were flat out luck (Aho, Slavin, Pesce, etc.)

We missed on a ton first round talent during JR’s tenure to select guys like Jake Bean, Julien Gauthier, Haydn Fleury, Ryan Murphy, Philippe Paradis, and Zach Boychuk.

Success occurred once we started nailing first round picks like Svechnikov, Necas, and Jarvis.

Those came around when Rod became a part of the coaching….

And Waddell took over for Francis/JR.

Though I believe Necas was a Francis pick.

In reality the best picks during that tenure didn’t even have their best years in Carolina (Lindholm and Hanifin).

Waddell has done a lot of good for this franchise.

So, is Donnie Wads better at drafting or making deals?

Tough to say but I’d lead toward drafting.

Svechnikov, Drury, Kochetkov, and Jarvis are NHL’ers.

Nikishin, Ponomarev, Blake, Morrow, FUS, and Nadeau all look promising.

The only disappointment is Suzuki and injuries killed his career before it even got started.

    • Well, hope they're not worried about a torn Labrum or Rotator Cuff, as someone who went through that myself, I know those don't have anything show up on X-Rays but from the MRI, so this is kinda a nothing update, hope it's not a tear or his season is already over if they decide to do surgery now. Which is basically what would be needed to get him to 100% for the start of next season's training camp if it's a labrum.  If he plays the season with it and then does surgery, he's not going to be ready for camp and probably not the start of the season either.
    • I always try to not pay much attention to a team’s preseason win/loss record. The 1982 Washington and 2021 LA Rams both lost every game in the preseason and went on to win the Super Bowl, whereas the 2008 Detroit Lions and 2017 Cleveland Browns both won every game in reason and went on to lose every regular season game. There’s many examples of teams that lose in preseason that go on to have good seasons, but equally there are teams that lose in preseason and that continues in the regular season. Which will we be?  I think our floor is a handful of wins, while our ceiling will probably be around the 9-10 win mark. The latter will require significant improvement from the whole team and coaching staff, and will also need Bryce to play like the QB we drafted him to be. I want to be optimistic and predict a winning season, but it’s really difficult as a Panthers fan!
    • Cos he looks much better?
