"Nice Jacket"

So I was out on the town today. Wearing the same Panthers jacket I've had for the past 4 years. I wear it every day in the Fall/Winter. It's starting to get old and ratty and I asked my family for a new one for Christmas.

 

So I walk into Best Buy and I have three different employees comment "nice jacket". You would think I was wearing a Members Only Jacket. So I'm thinking to myself "self, did these guys learn a new marketing tactic from corporate". Did they do market research that determined 30% of customers respond favorably to compliments? So I got on with my day, hit the DRs office, same thing, secretary tells me I have a nice jacket. I hit the Sears...."nice jacket, can't wait for Sunday". All in all I think I racked up like 6 compliments for an old dingy Panthers jacket.

 

Is this what it's like to win in the NFL? Are Beers colder? Skies bluer? Jackets nicer? It's been so long since the common fan has wanted to admit they watch the Panthers but that has changed for at least this season. I for one welcome my fair weather fans to engage in Panther discourse.

      Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.

      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.
