Does Rods System Hold us Back?

Shoot more, pass less.

It feels like this is a huge problem, but I think it's because it's mostly on the power play.  I was curious so I started checking stats vs the rest of the NHL.  The Canes are actually 3rd in the league in shots on goal, and give up the 2nd fewest shots on their own goal.

The power play is easily the Canes worst team stat right now.  They rank 21st in the league with 20.13%

That’s becasue they shoot everything from outside the dots.  Tons of low danger. 
 

as for the 20th ranked PP. I’m sorry but not sorry, it’s closer to 32nd vs 20th. It’s horrific. Tonight I saw that we are getting new PP line combos. Rod did change stuff up. See if it works.

Rod system is definitely the issue. Moose is an absolute stud and has been neutered under Rod. Aho, Jarvis, Svech could be elite scorers. Not under Rods old system.  When we flame out again from not being able to score….i can’t wait to hear the excuses for Rod this time.

Rod is getting absolutely trashed on Twitter and social media. People are waking up to that his system is holding our guys back. Lots of real worry that Moose is not going to come back to the canes. I don’t blame him. Rod is 100% holding him back. Moose had only 18 minutes of ice time last night.

I guess I don't know what "Rod's system" is. I know he wants pucks on net and I've always looked at that number to check the temperature of their offense. But, there are few players on this roster who are living up to that part of his "system."

That said, who, right now, is actually trying to create time & space to get a shot off? Seth Jarvis. But, look at the top SOG on the team: Svech (147), Aho (140), Burns (124), Jarvis (123). The next 3 guys are all defensemen, with Roslovic stuck in amongst them. Hell, the defensemen are shooting more than the forwards!

I turned off the game after the second period last night because the Canes were simply passing too much. And, because they already pass too much and don't usually pass with any pace, nobody on the opposing team is caught out of position. In my mind, if the Canes aren't averaging 10 SOG per period, they aren't shooting enough.

Other than that, I guess I don't know what RBA's system is.

Necas scored again to win last night and had 64 points on the year  Two behind Moose. It’s clear as day Rod is holding guys like Jarvis, Svech, and Aho back. Including Moose. 
 

rod doesn’t change the way they play, the canes will loose moose(probably going to happen) and flame out round 1. Bank it.  Rod is the problem and I will die on that hill.

    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up. 
    • Walker is a good player and comes from a great defensive minded school but there a questions about him. He could be a superstar or bust.  You trade down and will get a player with similar concerns and you jump into the middle of the second round where there are some good players.  YOU'RE not getting a 1st next year and a 2nd for 8. These mock simulators give you fair value for the most part. I've tried and most counter offers were rejected.  We trade down get a good first round graded player and jump into the middle of 2nd round and not having to wait for 57.  Plus if a stud falls to the late first or early 2nd round we could package 46 and 57 and get him.
