Week 1: at Seattle, 2-2 draw
Week 2: vs. Atlanta, 2-0 win

Off to a strong start. Discuss.

wasn't overjoyed Zaha was taking my boy Vargas' spot (one of my favs)......but he did a really good job of making me not being able to care about it in his Charlotte FC debut.

I like Vargas too but for our first 3 years our attack was way to predictable. Building slowly out of the back bring it down the wing and make low percentage crosses. Apparently at halftime Zaha got into the whole teams Ass and laid it out for them. We need to play fast we need to play direct and it worked. I'm excited to see what we can be this year if they continue their improve every year model we should have a top 4 seed in the East.

yeah, I liked what I saw from Zaha.   Like what he is coming into overall and what they did last year.  He could be a really great add especially when he gets some chemistry going w/ the guys.

poor showing by Charlotte FC Sunday at Miami.....

Losing 1-0 despite Miami going a man down in the first half.  

Zaha was ass but he was getting fouled or drawing 3 defenders everytime he got the ball so I'd have been frustrated too.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
