Looks like Guentzel is gone and will sign with Tampa for the offer the canes gave him minus the extra year

Tampa looks to be 7 for $9M versus Carolina's 8 for 8 deal. Florida has the better offer with no state taxes, but they're old and not a realistic shot at the Cup any time soon.

We`re just the same ol Canes. Just when we thought we had scoring help, it goes away. On the other hand, our pp didnt do poo in the playoffs and we were a different team overall. Looks like no Cup in sight for this team as we keep doing the same sh!t over and over hoping for a different result. I think there is a term for that.

Good news is this clears the way to bring necas and Skjei back while also making a solid run at Stamkos.  Honestly, if we do that then it’s really not that big of a drop off. It’s arguably the same if not a little better.  Stamkos would solve a 2nd line center problem we have and Jarvis will be even better. I would argue Jarvis will be better than AHO in a year.

Instant offense. A leader and someone that can run a power play. Too me, this makes too much sense.  Guentzel to Tampa and Stammer comes to Carolina.

Necas is gone, unless they are going to put him on the second line at center.

    • Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.
    • When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
    • We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.
