Rob has been great but this is far as he will ever take us with his defensive first system. Florida plays the same system. They just do it better with better players. Unfortunately, this is what we’re gonna get.

Unfortunately I agree. This is as far as Rod takes us. Against elite teams, his style is trash vs elite playoff hockey

I think it’s the system. He plays defensive first. But we don’t have the guys. Small soft and old. 

Florida plays the same system, yet the system is the problem? Florida has better players, yet Rod is the problem? The style is trash against elite teams, yet the defending champions play the same style?

Florida plays "generally" the same system with some key differences especially offensively they dont just cycle and hope for shots they drive the net and ALWAYS have guys screening the goalie....

I think it funny you guys want Rods head when the team that is kicking his teeth in is playing his style of game with better players.  
 

That style wins. Problem is we are way too soft to match the physicality that Florida brings (as are most teams judging by the easy work that the canes made of the devils and capitals as well as the panthers winning the cup last year and well on their way to making their third consecutive final).

Yea they lost the SC finals 2 years ago to Vegas which plays the same way.  Big neanderthal forwards that beat people up and score dirty goals.

Why is it so hard for some people to understand its not about similar styles and one team is better at it than the other. Its about 1 team, us, that isnt even playing their own style and look demoralized from the moment the puck drops and then playing like dogshit. That is all on Rod.

The Canes physically dominated 2 of the top 16 teams in the league this calendar month. If you truly believe Florida is just that much more physical than us, then what does that say about the rest of the league? Why didn't they go 82-0 this year, if they are orders of magnitude better than every other team?

Because playoff hockey and regular season hockey aren’t the same thing.  It’s a combination of the game intensity being dialed up with loose officiating.

      Why would we not be contenders? As long as Bryce plays like he did when he came back, we absolutely can be contenders...that is...   if the defense plays better... which is why adding someone like Ramsey when we have a QB on a rookie deal and can afford it makes sense IMO. No one thought of the Commanders being contenders last year or the Texans the year before and so on and so forth. Top-end QB play, especially for a guy on a rookie deal, changes everything in terms of timelines. Regardless of what this board thinks, I hope the front office is willing to he aggressive in thks window we currently have with a rookie QB deal

      Would absolutely love to have him. I dont think he would require more than a 5th rounder. The biggest thing with his contract is the amount of guaranteed money. As long as they can work out and scenario where the Panthers aren't on the hook for a lot of that, I think it's a no-brainer. The Panthers can come up with $20M at the drop of a hat with restructuring Moton's contract, so there definitely isn't an issue from a money perspective. Jaycee paired with Ramsey along with Mike Jack would give us one of the best CB groups in the league. The one caveat I see is that safety still remains our biggest current weakness. We need a starting caliber S more than CB, simply put. But adding someone like Ramsey would be amazing as long as the compensation made sense. Ramsey could also play for FS snaps also. I also dont understand this nonsense about being seasons away. We have a QB on a rookie deal who was playing at an elite level to end last season. Within reason, now is absolutely the time to make moves like trading for Ramsey.

      He'd be a huge upgrade for this year, but we're still not going to be contenders with him and I'd rather keep the cap space to roll into next season to spend on a younger player who can be an impact starter for us for the next 3-5 years while we're hoping to contend.
