This series is over if DH isn't a lazy dumb player.

I don't think Dougie is trying to be a "lazy dumb player," but he definitely is making mistakes.

He isn't the same Dougie from last year before he got hurt, he doesn't seem to be as fast.  Pair that with the fact that he usually plays with Slavin and I have to think he is just out of sorts.

I also wonder if he hasn't started thinking about his future already....I mean he is a UFA and has not been extended.  Maybe he it hasn't crossed his mind, but I wouldn't be too sure.

Dougie is the same Dougie he's always been Slavin is usually just there to cover his ass.

Ya... Dougie is worth about 3.5 right now. Not 7/7.5/8.

He may need a change of scenery after this season. Slavin should get half his paycheck.

It also seems to me that the guys have forgotten that you don't shoot the puck right at the goalie's chest. 

Yesterday, at times, reminded me of the Canes circa 2010-2017.....puck right into the goalie's breadbasket.

Fire 60 pucks at him and your gonna get 20ish rebound chances off that the key is having a guy there for the rebound goal, Saros has been great this season almost every goal we have on him is blocker side high....  Scoring hasn't been the problem IMO it's the ridiculous amount of grade A's we have given up on our end.

      Draft expectations vs reality

      By musicman · Posted

      Your thoughts? I don't think the trade up or even down value system stays exactly in place this year. Look at all the bad trades that hurt teams that give away too much (49ers for Lance, even us w/the Bears set us back). What trade up except Mahomes/KC was it really a great trade for the team giving up a lot? Same with trading down. Teams will know you don't want to pick and they won't be giving the store to move up because there is not a generational talent to do that for. Now, I believe these possibilities.  The Giants probably won't take QB-Sanders at 3, it's too much pressure if it doesn't work. They don't really need another edge rusher with Carter. I can see them possibly saving face, trade down to even the Panthers at 8 but not asking for a kings ransom. A 1st round swap, a 3rd and 4th and maybe next years 2nd and 4th could be enough without giving up too much. The Giants save in pay and in public opinion and then they can take Sanders or even another QB. For the Panthers to drop down, it has to mean their top 3 picks are not there. Do they take TE-Warren if he drops in their lap at 8 (I do like that)? I believe they would love to drop back but again I don't think teams will pay a lot to move up unless they want a QB before the Saints (our only hope for a good value).  I'm not picking a player, just thinking of the draft in general and value. Reaching doesn't work and more and more teams are realizing that.

      My one and only mock draft

      With the new DL, we should be better at edge by simple addition.   What player would have the biggest impact on the Panthers?  I still see the plan to trade back and take Emmanwori if we can find a trade partner.  Why, you ask?  S is a huge need and they have really only looked at 1 visits/meetings.  We will try to trade up for Princely in the second.  A WR in the third  (Bech or Noel).
