Do you resign Dalton for one more season?

Putting this out there now, do you resign him or not. Sure he is old as dirt and may be spent. Season is half over and they are still in limbo.

Options are few and far in-between. Few viable options going into 2025. What the hell are they going to do?

Opinions?

You start Dalton for the rest of the year.  Everyone is arguing Bryce vs Dalton, but here is my argument.

If you have decided that Bryce isn't it, and we have.  XL, Coaker, Sanders, and Mingo will not improve more learning along with Bryce's mistakes.  While Dalton is old, he is experienced and reliable.  He is the new Fitzmagic.  Fitzy was 39 when he retired.  If he isn't interested go after Gardner Minshew or Jamis Winston.  Shoot, you never know, maybe fixed Sam Darnold could be in play. (not really) We have been on a run of red-headed QB's!

Trade back from number 1, collect an extra 2nd round pick and grab Drew Allar or even Connor Weigman and have him sit a year or two.  Build the defense in FA and the draft. Getting DB back, adding a stud EDGE from the draft and FA depth signings need to happen before we think QB.

BC isn't looking half bad at center, AC may want to come back at a discount.  I've decided that Icky plays better everyone not named Bryce Young.  OL is pretty solid.  Got to look for Moten's replacement in the late rounds.

I would have agreed 3 weeks ago, but it's not as if Dalton has played well recently either.

    • Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.
    • I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.
    • Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
