Damn! Had to F-up and land on playing the Devils.

Week Defense tonight, Cam did really good, but not great.

We seemed scared/overwhelmed to be in the post season tonight. (Devil's brought their "A" game!)

Benefit of a doubt will be given for tonight's game.

Lets hope the next game goes better.

I thojght we looked slow against the devils in game one. We can not get into a trasition back and forth game with them. They are way too good at the transition game. We did not play good in center ice and could not get good quality ice time in the devils zone. We looked better in the third but the team had to realize this is the staly cup playoffs and play like they were playing.

My fear was that once the Canes actually lost, they were going to fall apart like they did last season after their little run (which put them close to the playoffs). Hopefully they will turn it back on, but game one certainly didn't give me much confidence.

This team, ever since the Stanley Cup run, doesn't seem to know how to play after losing. They will go on winning streaks occasionally, but as soon as they lose a game or two, they are useless for at least a week or two.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
