"Call The Shot" Playoff Challenge

Here it is, just in time for the post-season. There is a new wrinkle to the challenge that was not in play during the regular season.

You may call a shutout by naming either goalie, Carolina or the opponent, as your pick. You cannot make a goal scoring pick, only one pick per game is allowed. If you pick Freddie, for example, you are calling him to put up a shutout and that is your pick for the game. No others allowed.

16 wins are needed to win the Cup, let's see if someone can get at least 16 correct picks for the post-season!

@Anybodyhome what’s the rule if say…

Either side pulls a goalie, or goalie injury, etc and someone picked a goalie by name. 

IE: a goalie pitched a shutout but leaves due to injury, and the other team scores on the replacement. Should we add a caveat goalie must finish the game to be considered for a shutout? Or should we just consider it by team shutout?
 

Sorry to throw a wrench in there.

To keep things simple, we'll call it a team shutout. In reality, goalies are not tagged with empty netters on their stat sheet; and goalies who are replaced during the game are only tagged with the loss if they gave up the game winner to the other team. So, in order to keep the complications in check, we'll call it a team shutout. 

If anything happens out of the ordinary, we'll have to take it under review. Hope this helps.

So I’ll have to pick my player today because I’m out tmrw.  But I’m still confused. Do we pick you gets first goal or is this just for goalie for all teams?

It’s first goal but you can call a shutout instead if you want.

You pick first goal as we've done thus far, or...

You may pick a goalie for a shutout.

You cannot pick both. Either a shooter with first goal or a goalie with a shutout.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
