Another good thing about Ehlers is he can play both wing spots. So if they do try Jarvis at 2c, team would look like this. 

 

Svechnikov - Aho - Ehlers

Hall - Jarvis - Blake 

Martinook - Staal - Stankoven 

Robinson - KK - Carrier

 

Slavin - Miller

Nikishin - Chatfield 

Ghost - Walke

 

Andersen 

Kotchekov 

 

 

Does that get past Florida tho...

Ye of little faith.....

I have confidence in the Canes FO and coaching staff.  I will miss Burnsy, but it was probably the right decision.  He lost a step and a half last year for sure.

SJ overpaid Orlov who never really fit here, which I found odd but whatever.

We have cap space, some movable parts, and some young guys in the system who may surprise.  I like where we are....just gotta beat Florida!

Well I'm happy with Ehlers, and I'm cautiously optimistic about Miller improving under RBA.  I know we're probably not done, but I'm glad we aren't just running it back.

I think Miller fits our D-core better than he did with the Rangers.  I think Gleason and our system will make him better.

Tulsky putting in work. I like both the Miller deal and this one. 8.5m AAV for Ehlers is lot less than I expected. 

In fairness you pretty consistently OVERESTIMATE what extensions and signings will be.... 

Last year you were swearing the Elhers # would be Jarvis. 

 

In the future just take a 1 to 1.5 off what you think will happen 🤣

Rumors where that NY offered him 7.5-8m and he immediately told them no. A few other teams offered similar deals to the NY one and that Washington was willing to go over 9m AAV to sign Ehlers, so kinda why I expected it to be higher. However fair enough. 😂🤣😂

At least they didn't get the chance to offer Bouchard 11.5-12m AAV. Lol 

 

But no never get sticker shock on deals. I used to be much better at this when I had sources with the Panthers and Hurricanes.  But alas everything good must come to an end. lol

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
