They're going to have to generate a bit more offense and certainly more traffic.

And I agree.

Having said that, you know, I'll still stand by original statement that after two rounds, Freddie Anderson certainly was right there with all the other cons.

My favorite, in my opinion, only because especially in that Ottawa series, that shouldn't have been a sweep.

I mean, I watched that.

I watched every minute of that series.

Ottawa could have won one or two games if Anderson hadn't been as good as he had been.

I'll give you that.

That's why it was the most coveted free agent a year ago.

In fact, Elliott's going to do a thing on why they pursued Nick Ehlers and why he chose to go to Carolina.

He had many suitors.

He might have even left money on the table, gentlemen, right?

Like he's making a nice living, don't get me wrong.

But I think he just found this was the right fit.

Elliott will kind of give the inside scoop on that tonight in our pregame show.

What had faltered, you know, Carolina in the last three years, you know, three of the last four years getting to the conference final?

They just weren't able to outscore the opponents, right?

They were bullied, obviously, by Florida, but they also just weren't able to score those big goals because they caused all sorts of shots on goal, so much frenetic pace, but it wasn't meaning anything.

And he's just another finisher, right?

A six-time 25-goal guy, a guy who scored big goals.
