Rods forwards and lines

Recommended Posts

I think this is now being talked about on radio shows other message boards and podcast. These lines have derailed our forward groups.  We now have 2 wins in 7 games. Scoring has all but dropped. They haven’t had a 5v5 forward goal in 4 games. That’s wild. Aho said postgame the thing we have all been saying…we have no chemistry. He said it.  Staal sounded defeated. Koochie is playing bad to average. 
 

what needs to change? Team looks terrible. Is it time for a players only meeting like last year?

Sadly I dont see Rod changing. Im talking about in terms of his philosophy and way he has been handling things. He is the same since his first year. The thing is, he hasnt tried adapting and getting better each year. He needs to be more innovative, which is isnt, and its why we have stretches were it looks like we are hanging by a thread and also why we keep getting knocked out of the playoff.

Rod is who he is. He NEEDS to mess with lines. His philosophy and coaching style is never going to change. We already extended him again and so we are stuck with him until we are not. 
Thing is I get everyone just wanting to stick with Rod through good or bad. 
The Canes have been contenders every season he has been here. But the problem is his issues really come to a head when the playoffs start. 
Yes, I believe Rod is to blame for a lot of our playoff problems. 
Rod is a great season coach but a terrible playoff coach.

Rod has been a god send to develop our players to get us this far. Unfortunately, I think this is far as rod can take us.  Can’t develop a true goalie with Koochie getting worse. Team flames out every year in the playoffs.  Who would be the next Florida Panthers type situation to take us to the next level?

All Rod has to do to significantly improve the team is surround himself with better coaches, but he is headstrong on sticking with his current staff. Eventually this will lead to him being fired.

The Canes lost Bunting (13), TDA (3), Noesen (14), Pesce (3), Skjei (13), Teravainen (25), Guentzel (8), Kuznetsov (2), who accounted for 81 of Carolina's 277 goals (29.2%) last season.

They were replaced with Blake (0), Carrier (6), Gostisbehere (7), Robinson (3), Roslovic (9), Walker (10), who scored a combined 35 goals last season.  

I'm not going to comment on this- make up your own mind.

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
