Gettis Catch

Upon further review, that was a weird way to catch the ball. Whatever works though.

 

I think catching it that way helped his momentum keep going forward whereas if he turned his hands outward he probably would have had to turn his body towards the inside of the field.

Catch is made over the right shoulder in reverse. . . straight butta but notice how his hands are not behind the ball . . . they are around the sides. Yeah, thats gonna reduce your chances of catching a pretty good bit. That was a nasty haul and he found the perfect soft spot above the middle of the d, but he was milliseconds away from that blowing right through his hands.

 

I would say he did incredibly well to hold on to the ball like that.

I'm not trying to hate on Gettis by any means - I'm happy that he's been preforming well so far - but the dude was wide the fug open and he made the catch way more awkward than it had to be by the way he caught it. I mean, he turned his hands, like he was snagging an over the shoulder throw, to catch a crossing route that was out in front of him....weird. I'm just glad he caught the ball, but lets not pretend like it's some amazing catch.

    • 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.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • 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.
