Yes, I'm very aware of Cap Friendly and, if you've red any of my posts, you'd recognize this is one of my main resources.

And, you're missing my point entirely. I'm also very aware of Kochetkov's contract status as well as the fact he will be the backup for the foreseeable future. That's not a point of contention with me, I get it.

The thread and discussion is about which of the 2, Freddie or Raanta, would/should/will keep and what's your basis for that decision?

Andersen's AAV is $4.5M before UFA; Raanta's is $2M (the same as Kochetkov right now).

Could Raanta be a Hurricane for about what Freddie was getting the last 2 seasons? If not, a decent UFA or trade acquisition starting goalie will cost in the neighborhood of $6-7.5M.

Give them each a half a million raise for two years. I’d say more for one year but we got too much to contract next year.

yeah see if we're paying those 3 guys 9.5 say goodbye to at the very least Pesce and to whatever forward on the open market you thought you might have wanted.  I'll take an open market goalie/ trade plus Pyotr's 2m. 

Mrazek is barely an NHL goalie right now and succeeded in front of our defense. Nedjelkovic the same.  Pyotr will be fine at a 12-7-5 clip at worst next season for 2 mil behind a stud goalie without the injury troubles these two dudes have. We have been good at moving on/not providing guys the raises that they fetch on the open market for fitting in Brindamour's system.  I wouldn't quit that now.

 

That's why my answer on this poll is neither as I stated prior.  I want a bonafide #1 who can steal the show less Fred's injury history. Raanta at this point is an older, more oft injured version of Pyotr who has earned himself a raise on the open market. I hope it's not us that obliges him that.

Vegas won by committee, of like 6 goalies.

Goalie play didn't cost us any playoff series. Lack of scoring did.

But we also have never seen an elite goalie in Carolina. Wouldn't that be interesting to see in our system? Could solve a few of the goal scoring problems by itself.

Sure, that would be nice to see. That being said, is that elite goalie going to score for us? Because the 1 to 2 goals we have scored in losses won't get it done most times...

Again, what I love a top-notch goalie? Absolutely.

That being said, I care way more about getting forwards who can put the puck in the net

Look what NJD is doing. They are not settling and aggressively improving their roster. Tired of the Canes hoarding draft picks and prospects. 

I actually am not. We are setting ourselves up to be contenders for a long time.

Continuing to have an excellent farm system is going to keep us an elite team.

    • We all remember 2023, when the Teppers were making the Pro Day rounds.  Then last year, the owner of this restaurant, blocks from Bank of America stadium, sent a message that was received by the Panthers' owner. 😡😠🤬 https://www.foxsports.com/stories/nfl/panthers-owner-david-tepper-makes-news-once-again-on-day-1-of-nfl-draft Why would an owner of a restaurant put up a sign of this nature?  Flashback to the Tepper Pro Day tour.  Brace yourselves: THE PRO DAY CIRCUIT,  2023  "THE HORROR." That is Nicole Tepper, all up in the prospect evaluation process with some motherly love and awkward post-hug expressions.  I was like, "What is she doing there?" Here is the lovely owner of the Panthers on the front row among scouts and our head coach at Ohio State's pro day in 2023. MODERN DAY:  APRIL 2025 So, have David and Nicole realized that ownership in the NFL does not make you an evaluator of talent?   Will their egos allow them to let others do their jobs?  Or should we brace ourselves to see their thrones moved to the war room on April 24, preparing for their draft day interventions?  Have they been on the pro day circuit?  Have we tarnished his desktop brass balls?  Did the bartender hurt his feelings?  Did he get the message?  Just because we don't see them, it does not mean they are not there--lurking in the shadows--hugging people and talking to coaches.  Texting stuff. "Dan, take who you want, but that Offensive Guard from Guilford is my third cousin twice removed."   We need to be diligent.  Stay focused.  Keep them away from the brain trust.  Seriously, did they get the message?  What have you heard?  Are we safe? Recently, GM Dan Morgan was asked if the Teppers were involved in the private workouts at BOA.  Morgan refused to answer, but he did stare at the reporter for 43 seconds.  This photo shows Morgan being asked about the Teppers' involvement during a recent presser: According to inside sources, a hyperbaric oxygen chamber, made famous by Morgan during his playing days, was recently seen being delivered to Morgan's office shortly after meeting with the Teppers, a meeting that included a power point featuring the Teppers' top 50 prospect list.  Please post any Tepper-related news here.  Hoping there is not any.  
    • TJ Watt is stirring up social media with throwin up a ✌️. Sounds like he either wants out or knows he is out.  So. question is, if the Steelers come calling and offer 21 and TJ Watt for 8, are you biting?
