I'd rather he didn't.

Denver is weak against the run. The only reason we should be passing much at all is if they somehow manage, by good scheming or sheer effort, to stop the Panther run game.

You do have to pass some to keep it honest, but it all goes well by games end the Bronco D should be too worn down to stop anything on the ground, thus allowing the Panthers to just pound it.

Well, I certainly wouldn't have predicted a game plan that was as heavy on passing as there was yesterday.

Still, if you see something in the defense that lends to that - as Davidson obviously did - why not?

I'd say it served as a notice to teams that you can't just concentrate on shutting down the run and half-ass your coverage of Steve Smith. And if you adjust to double Smith, there's still Muhammad.

Yes, Denver was banged up, but as a confidence builder, that was a good game.

    • Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.
    • I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.
    • Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
