Rod is a great coach but at this point he’s just hoping that the top line or defense wins us games.

The other three lines are not providing any offense whatsoever.

Load up the second line with Teravainen, throw Drury on the third to complete the forechecking line, and put Svech on the fourth with the hope that he can take advantage of easier matchups.

Another scoring drought from the forwards.

Pittsburgh is old and slow, yet here we are.

Kuzys line is bad right now and necas has gone ice cold. I hate to say this but move gutz back to that line tonight. It may open it up.

Disagree. Our 3rd line is forecheck… like all the lines should be doing nearly every single shift. No they don’t always provide goals. But they provide our much needed offensive pressure. 4 is decent at forechecking. 1-2 are more run and gun, neither line is setting up forechecks.

Can’t win the cup like that and I’ll die on that hill.

Need contribution from all lines because eventually one of the top two lines is going to get shutdown.

Just look at Vegas last year, their 3C had 11 goals in the playoffs.

Expecting one or two lines to carry you to the cup is a recipe for disaster. Only way it could potentially work is if the defense contributes at an elite level.

We’re seeing first hand tonight what happens when the top line doesn’t score.

Canes actually played a good 2nd other than the goal where Pesce screened Kuchie. SOG was 15-5, Pucks just didn’t find their way to the net. I believe the puck luck changes and we score in the third.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.

      I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it.

      LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
