Hall and Rantanen have been on a period of bad luck recently. Thankfully, the team is still winning games even when they aren't on the scoresheet.

The analytics tonight confirmed the eye test: our key defensive guys were overtaxed because of the lack of Orlov's presence. Thankfully, Kochetkov was up to the challenge. The Canes might want to acquire an upgrade at 7D if the price is right.

Definitely can’t go into the playoffs with Stillman as your 7th d man if you actually wanna go far
 
Don’t confuse effort with success.

They needed Tkachuk and to retain pretzel who was a much better fit for our system (and a family guy who would be more attracted to the Triangle).

96 clearly wasn’t researched well enough re his play and as a single guy, what motivates him (lol as Necas pointed out in his recent interview).

But, thank goodness Vancouver Mgt. was dumb enough to retain that highly paid but poorly playing C and Canes dodged a bullet there.


On svetch for half ass skating there.
Come on now. The trade was in the works for months and the Canes even talked to MR before the trade. He hasn’t played lights out but simply if he finishes some more chances and Canes aren’t playing like garbage you aren’t saying that comment. No way you can say it wasn’t well researched and Necas is way outside his lane with that comment.

You can criticize the trade and player on a number of levels but I think dismissing the homework behind it is unfounded.

I know the fossil collection jokes among a certain segment of our fanbase are going to be unbearable, but OGWAC 2nd in Command (after Burns) Ryan Suter would be a very good add. He has been pretty good defensively for St. Louis in a bottom-pair role, has a dirt-cheap league-minimum cap hit, and probably will be over-the-moon to be a number 7 guy for a top contender.

I was thinking Suter or even Forbort from Van
 
Rod says deadline talk has been weighing on Rantanen, ever since he's gotten here, but especially today. Orlov had a little tweak and said he couldn't go, Stillman will be fine.

Chip: Can you tell early in a game if Kooch is dialed in? [Rod grimaced and made noise]
Maybe Rants doesn't actually want to be traded? Who knows any more. Just sign dude, you'll like it here and the media shit will stop. If you want low key media, this is the market. Unless youre Pining for the avs in which case you should have taken their deal man. I get it it, but best bud Fishy is here and the fam is the best fam in the league.

You can stretch out 13M a year pretty far in NC

Fortunately the media shit will stop for a while after tomorrow. I think if we keep him, which seems likely, he'll really pick it up after the deadline and into the playoffs. And hopefully then that'll bode well for negotiations going into the summer. Because of the 4 nations and road trips and now the deadline chaos/uncertainty he still hasn't really had a chance to just settle in yet. He'll have that chance in the last month of the season.
