Kind of like he pooed all over all the panthers fans at the end of that season smh

HE Is ELITE defensively in fact hes probably 75% of the reason we are so good at home in the playoffs, Rod line matches his line against our opponents best offensive line. Staal isnt gonna score much but he sure as heck stops scoring and is a monster PKer.

Ehhhh rod has stuck jarvy on staals no offense line for half the season both of the last two years.

FO are somthing that you can work to fix..... Jarvis is a worker. No doubt that by the end of the year he would have it around 50% His % is bad because hes going agaist top guys after aho gets the boot and a low number taken.

Lol Janakowski provides more offense. A smart move would be putting Jarvis at 2C

Goes a nice way after the Rantaneen fisco! Also It seems Nino put in a good word for us and it helped finalize it for him.

And a third DB was taken with a pick we traded.... #14 Revis

I think its Jarvis Stankoven is even smaller than Jarvy and isnt as good defensively. Ive wanted Jarvis at center for a while... I think hes PPG easy at C and probably a Selke winner at that

Not an excuse STAR goalies are just NOT traded.... Best bet of that would be the Rangers sucking real hard and going full rebuild but they wouldnt want to trade us and if they did it would hurt. Star goalies don't grow on trees.... Not to mention the past two years it didnt matter who we had in goal..... when you turn the puck over like that and get out muscled in the middle of the ice it doesn't matter who is in net.

See thats the problem is you need an upgrade and lots of people have a spare bit of cap space. The best bet is finding someone who can take 30ish regular season starts at the same level as our guys.... I do not believe there will be anyone who would be a post season upgrade available this season.

The athletic has the right Idea IMO Jarvis will be our 1B center..... https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6472946/2025/07/04/hurricanes-lineup-miller-ehlers/

Yes we are weak at 2C, I wouldnt say C overall just we have Aho and then 3 guys who should be third Cs..... If we dont aquire someone I suspect we will finally see Jarvis at center this year. I see what you mean with Freddie, and I agree to an extent I think we should limit his regular season starts and focus on keeping him healthy for the playoffs. He has been very good in the post season contrary to what some casuals think we DID not lose because of Freddie.... 2.02 GAA and a .907 % We lost to florida because our small offensive D men couldn't keep the Panthers from parking right in front of him.

In theory that would be nice, but i can almost guarantee you no one who will be an upgrade will be available.... much less a "stud" This is a list of goalies who are free agents in 2026 aka possibly be sold at the deadline..... the only one I see that might help us is a retread in Ned.... (honestly should have never gotten rid of him hes performed admirably in much worse situations since leaving).

That's the thing the more I go back and watch him (agaist teams that arent the canes) the more im sure i don't think he really has to fix anything, he has all the tools to excel immediately in our scheme, as its more quick read and react.
