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!

SJ overpaid because they have to hit the cap floor.

Burns played well in the Washington and FL series, but overall did not look good last year. Colorado is a good place for him to be a 3rd line LD, which is what he probably should have been for us

There is no comparison between the two.....

 

KK was a bust, Miller had a rough year in laviolettes system but he does produce.

I wouldn't even say KK has been a bust, he was signed to be the 3rd center to replace Staal with potential to be the 2nd center. Staal didn't retire so it forced KK to the 2nd line where he shouldn't be. He's fine as a 3rd line guy.

If he’s fine as a 3rd line guy he would be easy to trade.  Nobody wants him lol.

I meant when we acquired him he was a full on bust for Montreal, heck considering he was a #3 pick he is a bust. 

 

I wont argue he would be a serviceable low end #3 center but lets be real a guy drafted #3 should be much better.

Draft bust, most definitely for sure. Misunderstood what you were saying. My bad.

      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)

      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

      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.
