Edge rush coming?

You never know if Newton has inside information or he is just covering all the bases.  Newsflash:  They might sign none, one, two, but three is unlikely.

Cutting edge.  However, I don't think anyone was hoping for two.  I say sign one, draft one, but that is just me--I am no David "Fig" Newton.

Looks like we might be close to signing somebody?

If it were someone other than Newton I would agree.  I still think we sign one, but I think they had other visits.  That could be agent talk for "we want top dollar"

In Juan we trust. 

If he embeds properly, that is.

Yeah he's about to lose his only contribution to the forum to @Jackie Lee because he doesn't know how to embed a tweet. Lost on a technical glitch. Poor kid. What will he do with his life now?

I'm not believing it until Jaun posts it.

Agreed, it isn't so until Juan says so. I also hope if anything happens that Juan does not embed the tweet so I can watch twenty people at once bitch about it in the thread. The real joy behind his breaking news stories is how upset it makes his followers who eagerly stand by refreshing their phones waiting for his updates so they can cry each time he purposely does not wait a second to "embed a tweet". I love it and hope it continues myself!

The little poo finally got on my nerves enough to where I joined the chorus of bitching about it. I think more than a few of us do not want to join the click bait parade and are just tired of the crap. But to each his own. I just do not click on the links.

Oh I don't click on Juan's links either. At first I was saying "what the hell man" as I would read his breaking news reports but then I realized he was mind fugging me in Juan's special way so I just read the comments and wait for someone else to embed the tweet.  

My favorite of Juan's has always been when some of the most absurd shitty dumb news possible that nobody except Fitt. would have made with a trade or signing and Juan chimes in with "I fully approve this". I can't help but laugh each time. The board needs this guy. He is a goofball but harmless and provides a chuckle for some like me regularly in some of his odd responses like his attraction to our new head coach and how sexy he thinks Canales is. Juan's whole persona makes me laugh and I need more laughs in my life these days.

    • So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.   
    • My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
