One thing is for sure now gents    There is no more excuses.  DW got us the snipper and center we needed. Now it’s up to Rod. Here we go!

You do realize Guentzel isn’t a sniper right? Most of his goals are between the dots and close to the net.

Check the goals and goals heat maps at the bottom. 
 

If you were referring to Kuz, same thing though he does spread out a bit more in the dots, not so much in his later years though.

Good. Needs to earn his worth and build chemistry with the 15 different line combinations he will inevitably be on. 

I think MDC laid it out pretty perfect

Jake - Aho - TT

Svech - Kuz - Jarvis

MSF

Noesen - Drury - Necas

Good balance and a scary 4th line that can handle second lines in away games in the playoffs.

Scratching KK? That’s a lot of pressure on Kuz. He’s looked pretty bad this year. It’s definitely a reclamation project.

It’s either Kuz or KK at this point. You’d sit Drury?

No, probably not at this point. Sucks, because you can see the player KK can potentially be. I’m just optimistic on Kuz. He has a lot of proving to do.

Guentzel-Aho-Turbo

Svechnikov-Kuz-Necas 

Martinook-Staal-Jarvis

Noeson-Drury-Faast 

 

Feels more likely to me.

The more I think about this the more I like it, If anyone can help Kuz keep his head on strait and focused its RBA, I don't think he's washed he had a drug problem if he's legit clean.... this could be a huge boon sticking him between Svechnikov and Necas

 

Should also be noted that Orlov is his best friend

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
