Canes vs Rags Round 2 Game 1 4pm


Recommended Posts

Think it’s important that we get a lot more offense from our defense this series.

We only got two goals from the defense last series and if for some reason the forwards get cold, we are going to need a lot more from that.

Also need Kuzy and Necas to have the series’ of their lives. They’ll be the best players on the ice when they are out there against the Rangers bottom six, they need to play like it.

Finally, guess I’ll pick up Raising Canes for the game, got to show my support somehow.

It was because Varlamov had a super strong high glove side and excellent rebound control, plus high selling out to block by the islanders(something the rags do also but not the extreme the islanders do it). One of those two goals came against Samsanov almost immediately. 
 

Igor on the other hand is fallible glove high sometimes, not as bad as Bob though for sure.

Necas may have only had 1 goal but he had a quietly good series against the islander 5 points, 1g, 4a, 1.0 ppg, though he is a -1. His defense was definitely not the best last series. 

Frankly, Aho and Guenz need to up their game. Guenz was a .8 ppg with an empty netter so you could argue he’s a .6 on game changing points, Aho is also a .6 ppg. 
 

Kuz isn’t really a stat issue. +2, 2g 2a, 4p. But he was off a lot last series in the ozone. I don’t know if he was trying too hard or not enough but…

Does anyone know if Bally’s is still gonna do a pre-game/post-game show? I’d rather not have to listen to PK and Messier fawn over the rags. Wish we were on TNT/TBS. Really grown to like the TNT/TBS crew this playoffs, which is the opposite of last year.

Yeah, these national guys are tough to watch.

Sounded like no on the podcast. Willis will be doing some stuff on WRAL.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
