GDT: 6 o'clock news - canes @ buffalo @ 6 o'clock

Yeah, unless something turns around in the next few weeks, this team should NOT be buyers at the deadline, unless we can steal someone a la Viktor Rask style.

Biggest takeaway for me is how national hockey media knows zip about this team. Every time the Canes get talked about,--be it TNT, NHLN, Sirius XM--it's the same bingo-card talking points: "Rod will have these guys ready" and "They'll come out hard" etc etc. Also, I see now why Gretzky failed as a coach, when he watches the first two periods and can only say "The Canes have a powerful offense." :oops:
 
again. Letting BOTH pesce and sjkei go was a mistake. Should have kept one and noesen.
I would have kept Skjei out of everyone who left aside from Guentzel. Noesen is replaceable you can find similar types of guys every year for half the cost

Noesen was the first guy we had in a while that actively drove the net, and we now have that part of our game missing with him gone. We say that is easy to replace but we have a real hard time doing it.

The problem is we keep letting guys like that go. McGinn, Foegle, Lorentz, Noesen, etc. We signed Carrier and Robinson to be those kind of guys, but Carrier isn’t healthy and Robinson doesn’t do it consistently.

It also probably doesn’t help that when we DO crash the net, it gets challenged and overturned for GI, even when it shouldn’t be.
