So our system is free wheeling with offensive zone circle cycling to get shots top half of circle or high slot. It's what we do. Blue line has green light to blast as long as somebody is low. Simple hustle play style, allows us to put work in on teams who don't have the speed and endurance.

 

Well, yet again we face a team that can hang and now we can't buy shots. Everybody looking for the pass to wear down teams and nobody trying to strike fear. 

 

The system needs to adapt. Not change. Just adjust. Get some set plays. Crash the fuging net. 

Morrow didn't need to see the ice. Put Niki with Orlov and call it a day. Jarvis is likely fuging concussed. Shocked if he isn't. So now we need to replace his impact (give Blake the minutes. He's earned it). 

Run Koochie for the next two games. Freddie is exhausted. 

Marty needs to scrap with anybody not named Marchand. 

We're needing goals and we spend the entire pp passing and I just don't fuging get it

What's crazy is even with Walker not playing after leaving Morrow still only has six minutes of ice time why DRESS SOMEONE TO HIDE HIM ON THE BENCH AND PLAY 4D

Slavin and Burns are fuging toast right now. They're exhausted as hell. Ghost is literally just trying to not let guys behind him because he doesn't have the legs right now. Orlov is Orlov.

 

Let Niki bomb. Teach Nikishin "off" and let him fuging try to run a normal shift.

I'll add this, his system doesn't work against teams like Florida and that's who the Canes are going to need to beat for a cup shot. 

 

The problem is it works against most of the league. It's hard as hell to justify poo canning the guy who brought you into relevance year in and year out because he fails to win cups. If we hire a guy to replace Rba and he fails to make the playoffs, we lose the culture built entirely. That's the risk.

 

RBA needs to be able to switch it up. We need to be setting up Aho and Svech and Jarvis every game. We aren't. Telling them to go find their space and shoot when they can isn't working. We need some set plays so we can free up space for some cross crease. Florida can, why can't we?

Just like any other sport, if you're current build and staff can't win, replace and fix til you can. The goal is a cup, if you can't win a cup. Reset and rebuild.

It's not about not being able to win the Cup, or even to get past Florida.

It's about losing your team.

Doesn't matter what sport. Once that happens, you are done as a coach in that town.

I'm not in the locker room, so idk for sure if the team has turned on him. But, that's damn sure what it looked like tonight!

Yes, did you see him dress Morrow and then only play him 3 shifts before Walker got hurt??? Then only played him another 5 minutes the rest of the game and played 4d basically.

      Tony Pauline: word inside league circles @oregonfootball S Dillon Thieneman could end up with the #Vikings at 18 or the #Panthers at 19

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      That may be true but not having a competent and talented safety is what let Stafford cook us down the field in almost less than 1 minute and bouncing us out the playoffs.  Scott is a liability in each level of the game IMO and a versatile player at that position can completely change the look of a defense just as much as a pass rusher. Knocked down passes big moments, turnovers, TFL, QB pressures on blitzes, etcetera.   I'm  not saying you don't want us to draft a safety, but most of us should agree that WE NEEEED a lights out safety on this team finally.  If DM moves up a spot before Vikings and not give up much to snag him for us I won't be mad in slightest. This kid is a DAWG and I believe he could possibly be a staple on this defense the likes of the guys we still sing praises for Peppers, Kuechly, Davis, Rucker, Beason, Morgan, Gamble..............Thieneman?

      Benjamin Solak on Panthers draft needs

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Picks: Nos. 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 I'm extremely excited for the Panthers' 2026 draft. How could you not be? After two straight offseasons of aggressive defensive spending, coordinator Ejiro Evero's unit looks ready to make the leap. Jaelan Phillips and Devin Lloydfill out two of the biggest gaps on the roster, though the Panthers should not be discounted from drafting a top edge rusher early. Phillips is a major injury risk and not a sack artist, so he doesn't fully solve the Panthers' 5.3% sack rate from last season (27th in the league). The Panthers might be the Akheem Mesidor(Miami) team, as they need his production immediately. The Panthers are also often tagged as the Kenyon Sadiq team, which is very possible. No one among Tommy Tremble, Ja'Tavion Sanders and Mitchell Evans has played his way into an unquestioned starting role. But the Panthers do have three tight ends on the roster, two of whom are on rookie contracts. Sadiq would fit nicely in Dave Canales' offense, which has a dynamic screen game and schemes up targets well. But I'd like to see an accompanying move to make room at the position for Sadiq's snaps to love the pick. There's much more room at wide receiver, where a second three-level option to run besides Offensive Rookie of the Year Tetairoa McMillan could really bust open this offense. I could see an early pick spent in the secondary, which might come as a surprise to some. Slot corner Chau Smith-Wade has been fine but could be improved upon if an elite nickel option is available at No. 51 (think D'Angelo Ponds from Indiana or Keionte Scottfrom Miami). Depth behind the outside corners is also quite thin, and Mike Jackson (29 years old) is in a contract year, so a player with inside-out versatility would have even more value. Clemson's Avieon Terrell, anyone? The Panthers can also buttress the slot by drafting a safety with good man coverage traits to play opposite Tre'von Moehrig, as neither Lathan Ransom nor Nick Scott has emphatically secured that role. Treydan Stukes(Arizona) is another option who would make a lot of sense at No. 51. Bottom line: Wide receiver, pass rusher and defensive back are the big needs. Attack them aggressively -- this is the end of Bryce Young's rookie contract, so it's time to push
