Looking back-- Mike Mayock evaluates Jimmy Clausen before the draft

If he was a top 10 prospect he wouldn't have fell to the 2nd round. Good try.

Not true at all, things happen that make teams "question" the players...for instance, are you sold on the fact that Hardy was a 6th round pick?

Players falling happens all the time as does players being drafter higher than they should!

This statement is basically retarded. Guys fall all the time in the draft and end up being steals. Especially in this draft which was so deep in 1st round talent, it's easy for teams to go in different directions due to need.

Where you're drafted =/= your talent level.

    • The Canes were definitely shook as soon as game 1 started going south. I think Niko Mikkola coming back for Game 5 was big for Florida.  That guy was a force all series.  They definitely missed him in Game 4.
    • The off season should be eventful, it was painfully obvious we need a 2C and a 1RHD The Canes have cap room and draft capital id be on the lookout for not just free agent signings but also trade moves..... Im actually leaning towards them addressing more via trade in the off season than free agency.
    • I agree with this. Florida is going to be tough to beat. But they can’t keep that group together much longer so the hurricanes window might open a little wider.  My problem is the series should have looked the way it did in games 4 and 5. From the second period of game 1 thru 3 were an abysmal effort and the players just looked defeated. I was very disappointed in the overall effort until games 4 and 5. I think it’s very fair to ask if Rod is the right man for the job right now. If they’d gotten swept again and they lost game 4 like 5-0, id say he might need to go. But I think the team bounced back enough to give him another year with the front office going all in to bolster the roster. Failure to reach the finals with a full push to build the roster to win now, Rod goes next offseason, and the team focuses on retooling around their younger players.
