Kinda checked out for the summer after disappointing end to last year. Doesn’t seem to me we have a stronger roster tbh is year but let’s see if some youngsters can step up

I actually disagree. Jarvy and Aho will be better. Koochie is the goalie of the future. This team could have 2019 vibes.

Hope you are right! Blue line got weaker? 

We lost a ten goal guy in Skjei and Gained 2 ten goal dmen maybe slightly worse at defense but better scoring.

 

And I agree with panther fan Jarvis will be even better I'm expecting 40+ goals and 90ish points from him.....

 

He played all of last season with a torn labrum....

I’m actually not worried about the defense. Pesce was declining and Ghost and Walker are perfect fits for what we are trying to do. I will miss Skjei.

The forwards are the big question mark. Prior to the trade deadline we lost 52 goals between Turbo, Noesen, and Bunts. In hindsight I’d wish we never made the trade because we could really use Bunts this year. Those 52 goals prior to the TDL were replaced with 15 goals by Roslovic and Carrier.

As of right now I see us as a wild card team at best due to our forward group. I’ll change my mind if Roslovic turns into a 20 goal guy and Carrier into a 15 goal guy. Realistically we’d need 15 goals out of one of the rookies (Nadeau, FUS, Blake) as well.

This is my biggest concern as well. I don't believe the 2024-25 roster improved from last year, but I allow myself to be surprised. Hoping Jost, a former 10th overall pick by Colorado, somehow begins playing up to expectations.

I don't know , will this be another year of playoff failure ?

it's starting to wear on me 

Still a Canes fan though , and still support them, I just want another cup and we are so close, but we fall apart against legit teams in the playoffs , we almost got it back if Freddy could move without falling over 

Sigh, Go Canes !!!!!

      Two Athletic articles about QBs

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      That's part of being patient too. Not rushing players into roles they aren't ready for. Make them earn it. If you convince yourself that "so and so" needs to start because they were a first round pick, even though they have done nothing to earn it, you have set up both team and player for failure. You can convince yourself all day long that "there is no substitute for game experience" but if the guy can't do his job in practice, he can't do it in a game. Not consistently, anyway.  Teams like the Steelers, the Ravens and the Packers ROUTINELY bench rookies to start off with and no one bats an eyelash. Even if the team is losing. Because that's what they do. They have set the precedent. The players have to show they are ready. Then they get their chance.

      Be careful what you wish for

      Let me provide you with some food for thought. Before this "now era" of the NFL, QBs were allowed time to develop. Everyone from the GM to the fans had more patience. QBs were simply better in the old because they were afforded the time to sit, observe and learn. It's no wonder that guys we threw away, or simply didn't want, have had varying degrees of success elsewhere.  Some Huddlers were talking crazy about Jordan Love and Lamar Jackson---just crazy...

      I think the JAG debates are largely people having vastly different definitions of JAG.  The OG JAG LB debate was James Anderson.  And James Anderson is probably going to be ahead of Shaq on my alltime LB list (it's really close though).
