So this is more of a hypothetical until we know more tomorrow but in the coming couple weeks it’s may play a factor. We are currently carrying 14 forwards and 7 D. Obviously Lemieux and TDA are the “back-ups”

If everyone is healthy tomorrow/this week, who sits and why?

Leaning toward Kotkaniemi because everyone else you’d think about sitting also can play special teams (Drury - PK, Noesen - PP, Fast - PK).

Additionally, for Noesen and Fast, I can pick out things that they are very good at that will be beneficial come playoff time (Fast - forechecking, Noesen - net front).

Think it comes down to Drury or KK and Drury gets the nod due to special teams.

Though I can see management telling Rod not to sit a guy that we gave a long contract to.

Fast is too important to that Staal line to sit. We are going to rely on the Staal line locking down opposing teams first lines in the playoffs.

Noesen provides much needed offense on the 4th line and good net presence on the PP.

Agree it comes down to KK or Drury. The fact that Drury has been better on faceoffs and is better defensively gives him the nod over KK to me.

      yeah, but the actual jersey Bryce Young is wearing is not the same jersey you are buying from Fanatics.

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter
