Your team MVP?


Recommended Posts

First of all, great season fellas!

 

I don't know about all of you, but I was pleasantly surprised by a number of players this year who would otherwise get overlooked. If you had to vote for team MVP this season, who would you choose? Not necessarily based solely on stats or performance, but someone who added a key piece to the puzzle.   

 

My vote … Mike Mitchell. He struggles in some areas, but he brought that tenacity, grit, and nasty attitude to the table. Every feared secondary needs a player like Mitchell. Please re-sign this man!  

 

2nd choice:

Brad Nortman

 

EDIT: Outside of Cam/Kuechly, who was your MVP?

Cam & Luke are obviously the only two true MVP candidates on this team. But I think you're looking for someone who performed better than expected and helped our cause.

I'll go with Melvin White. Who ever thought he'd play that well when we signed him as an UDFA?

How can it not be anyone but Cam. He arguably made the most improvement. He learned to go through his reads more consistently, and play within the scheme of the offense, as taught to him by a "new" OC. He largely played within himself also, and made better decisions with the ball that resulted in less forcing and turnovers. He learned to be patient in the pocket---only relying on his feet as a last resort which kept us on games---even though protection (or a lack thereof) consistently dogged him throughout the regular season and postseason.

 

The Kuechly-Davis Combo gets an honorable mention.

Ok, Cam, really? The so-called leader who called out his teammates in public? Yes, the panthers will win so many games with this qb at the helm.

    • So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.   
    • My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
