Hopefully it’s just precautionary because I’d like to see him get back to Chicago and help the Wolves make the playoffs.

What goalie does he play tomorrow or Saturday? Because he’s going to pick a fight with one of them.

Being from the Charlotte area I hated it when they swapped affiliates from the Charlotte Checkers to Chicago.

Still think that was a horrible move in regards to growing the fanbase and the brand but it is what it is I guess. If I’m not mistaken, Carolina didn’t feel like they were getting enough monetary support to from Charlotte to keep the team competitive long term.

Yeah, not sure I'm nearly as confident in him as I once was.

He started wearing his emotions on his sleeve while he was in Raleigh and I think it's gone too far. Yes, he scored a goalie goal, but that celly was a little over the top and he ultimately got tossed when the opposition took offense. Then, he gets tossed again while giving up 5 goals. 

Not a good look when his performance has not been good enough to warrant the other poo he's pulling.

I'm don't think you can take that kind of passion away from a player. 

Smitty and Jake had it as Panthers. Smitty rode his passion to a golden jacket (eventually) while Jake rode his into the heart of every Panther fan under the age of 30. There are always gonna be ups and downs. Smith had his fair share of ejections and personal fouls and everyone remembers the meltdowns that Jake got himself into.

The good thing about players that run on pure emotion is that they tend to be at their best when emotions are highest, ie the playoffs...

This is what it ultimately comes down to. If King Kucci plays up to his potential, nobody but the other team will have a problem with the antics that come with his game. And the fans will love him all the more for it.

I understand what you’re saying, emotions can make play better.  Kuchi is young and celebrating a little too much after he got is goal was funny and understandable.

A cheap trip as a poor loser however,  like that in the link I provided, isn’t going to make fans or Rod happy. Emotions have to be controlled sometimes and Rod won’t tolerate displays like that.

      Chris Simms: Jalon Walker is the most overrated player in the draft

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I always get lectured every year when we inevitably win some meaningless late season games to tank our draft position that we're building culture and you always have to try to win no matter what. This is why that's bullshit. Once you're out of contention it's to your competitive advantage to LOSE.

      You’re tripping I hear what you’re saying but you’re not thinking of the benefits that trade gives us. We can then move around in the second round or late in the first to grab a specific player we covet like M Starks late in the 1st. Let me clarify if we’re at 21 we grab W Nolen or K Grant then trade up late in the 1 or early in the second giving up next years second for M Starks or T Amos there so much that can happen with that additional ammo.  Allowing us still so much leverage in next years draft as well with two first rounders we’d be dam crazy not to take a trade like that it’s not the big haul or heavy amount of picks we’re hoping for but it’s gets us multiple players especially ones we’ve seemed to taken a liking to like Nolen etc along with the safety from SC. or even a Luther B or James P early in the second. This nice influx in talent would help way more than a player like Jalon W. because of his high bust rate or probability  to bust….you know what I mean.  We need players we all know that those extra picks allow us to give up something this year to add key pieces from the 29-40 range that we may really like and have a need for (T Amos) and it not hurt as much because we’re stacked in round one of 26. Which could also be a pick one trade one scenario next year giving us more ammo to manipulate the draft to a winning situation for us long term. Al that to say we desperately need to be actively seeking a trade because we could add real talent in multiple spots this year and next with that current trade your opposing.

      [The Athletic] Do teams pay attention to NFL media mock drafts? Maybe more than you’d expect

      According to their list, the top guy hasn't put out a mock yet and the 2nd guy has us trading to 4 for Carter.
