Round 1 Game 1 Canes vs Isles 5pm Saturday


Recommended Posts

Even if Sorokin finds last years form I don't think it will be enough for the Isles we beat  in 6 with freaking MacKenzie Mckeathern on Ahos wing the Canes ability to score is much greater than last year...
These are the players the Canes didn't have last season when we played you.

Guentzel
Svechnikov
Teravainen
Orlov
Anderson

And Jarvis has made a huge leap up to being a 33 goal scorer (honestly if Rod hadn't glued him to Staal for half the season he probably would have gotten 40)

Every one of these is a massive upgrade over what we trotted out agaist the Isles last season.... couple that with Sorokins poor year and yes I'd be shocked if this series was close.... on the scoreboard or otherwise.

Take a look at who he's played while "hot" not to mention Freddie is Hotter....

The Islanders aren't gonna score more than 2 4x....

 

Remember Rod doesn't line match in the regular season I just don't see them scoring enough for this to be a close series....

 

This isn't last year our top scorer isn't gonna be Jesper Fast,

Varlamov beat the rags and Preds, In fact he blanked the Preds, in his last 5. Rags, Preds, Winnipeg and Florida in his last 10 only losing to Ottawa in OT and Tampa. 
 

Varlamov… “is 8-1-1 in 10 games with a goals against average of 2.09 and a save percentage of .930 in his last 10 games.”

Yes Freddie is on point but don’t sleep on the islanders or Varlamov.

He blanked the Preds after they clinched and had nothing to play for Freddie Anderson is 9-1 in his last ten with a 1.3 GAA and a save % of .951.

Canes have the Advantage there.

The only Advantage the Isles have is in hits and blocked shots, which probably wouldn't be one if the Canes didn't have possession of the puck 61% of the time..

 

#2 PP vs #32 PK (71.5%) 

#1 PK vs #19 PP

 

If this makes it to six I'd be shocked. The only hope they have Is if Varlomov can go God mode and the Canes PP reverts to back what it was last post season without Guentzel, Svechnikov, Orlov .

Any updated on Quickie?

In the playoff thread.

Will not start game 1.

Wont know till he practices, paraphrases Rod.

”Not a concussion”. A “neck sprain” per Donny Wads. “A matter of days”. 
 

I am sure they are probably physically restraining him from getting on the ice. You ain’t gonna keep that dude out. Not for the playoffs. 
 

Edit: I also want to point out in the presser Donny Wads specially referenced the MSF line. You can find all the pressers at: 

canespr.com ->media availabilities. 
 

MSF mother fuger. Better fugging happen.

    • 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.  Mock drafts 
    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
