Those damned miss opportunities.

So this is pretty wild… The most recent incident of a fairly famous professional athlete suffering from a heart issue occurred in the sport of soccer when Denmark’s, Christian Ericksen, collapsed on the field… he was out for months… I’m not entirely sure how Watt gets cleared here.

Dress code for todays game is a t-shirt and blue jeans.

Well never mind that, looks like the newer logo is still on the helmet. Still might go silver, black, silver.

Haven’t worn blacks this season yet, what are the chances they go with this look and slap the old panthers logo on the silver helmet.

Yeah, I guess Rod just wanted to get continued looks at other guys. I thought de Haan looked really good but I don’t like handicapping him with Bear. I think pairing him with an offensive-defenseman like Coghlan would be beneficial.

The Union’s GD is +42… that’s absolutely insane. What Charlotte did to them last night just doesn’t happen. They haven’t lost a regular season match by 4+ goals since 2019.

First preseason game is at 1:00PM today against Boston, I don’t believe Martin is playing and Hayward might not either. The game will be on NBATV.

Well.. Columbus beat Red Bulls at the death tonight so things are going to get a little more difficult. There’s honestly so many playoff scenarios for us that it’s not even worth talking about until the final match, hell, Cincinnati is collapsing and if they lose to D.C. in their final game then they will probably miss the playoffs. Going to be a wild finish should we beat Columbus on Wednesday.

Okay… just looked into this more and it’s interesting. Play will be restarted at the point that it was stopped, so 16th minute. Lineup’s are locked, injured players can only be replaced by substitutes that were active for that game, replacing an injured player with a substitute will not count as an in-game substitute. This is going to be interesting lol…

I actually don’t know exactly how that works other than that they will start the game from the stopping point of the other game to my knowledge.

Just an absolute stunner, the Union don’t get their poo kicked in like that… but tonight, Charlotte would not be denied. A four piece from Danny Rios has Charlotte still playing for something. We’ll know more about what exactly needs to happen after tomorrow. In a perfect world… Red Bulls will beat Columbus tonight and NYCFC will take out Orlando City tomorrow.

Charlotte is doing everything they can to make this season exciting. Charlotte is up 2-0 on Philadelphia in the 70th.

Must win… somehow have to get it done.

True but Tripp made the comment today that Freddie stated previously that it doesn’t matter how many shots he faces because of how systematic he is. Might just be fluff from Freddie though. Coming off an injury he’s probably rustier than most.

First one Andersen had no shot of saving. Nice saucer pass over Bear and the Panthers player had a wide open net. The other two I thought he could have saved. On the second one, Seeley didn’t box out Lomberg well enough but I’ve seen Freddie save that shot before. I don’t think Dalpe’s goal was anything special either. Freddie has definitely made that save before as well. Andersen may need one more game to shake the rust off.

Win this one and it’ll get mighty interesting down the stretch.

Final. Canes 4 - Kittens 3 Goal 1 - Burns (from Teravainen) Goal 2 - Svechnikov (from Slavin and Necas) Goal 3 - Necas (from Svechnikov and Bear) Goal 4 - Burns (from Kase and Slavin) A few notes through three games: - Svechnikov, Coghlan, and Burns have been my three stars through preseason. - Pacioretty is exactly what this team needs and he can’t get healthy soon enough. There will be games like today where Turbo, Aho, and Jarvis just can’t find the net. Having someone like Paccioretty will take a lot of pressure off the top line. - Svechnikov, Kotkaniemi, and Necas has been our best line in my opinion, I’m expecting a massive year from Svechnikov. - I think Stastny is better suited to play with Staal and Fast as where Kase is more of a 4RW. - The fourth line seems to be fluid but some combination of Martinook, Drury, Kase, Stromwall, Stepan, and Noesen will make for a really nice fourth line. - Burns is going to be a Godsend for the PP and I wouldn’t be totally shocked to see him put up 70+ points with the usage that he’s going to get. Slavin and Burns are going to be one of the best defensive pairings in the league. - As seen today, Skjei and Pesce are vital to this team. Not having our second pairing out there really showed. - de Haan and Coghlan have looked great and I fully expect them to be the third pairing with either one able to play up a pair should an injury occur. - As seen today, Bear doesn’t really do anything well and with Chatfield no longer waiver exempt, I think you have to move Bear… I wouldn’t risk trying to sneak Chatfield through waivers. - Andersen may need another game, he looked a little rusty today. I’d consider giving him one more game since he’s been out for so long. On the other hand, Raanta looked really good during his two periods a couple days ago.

BURNSSSS AGAIN!!!

After 2: Canes 3 - Kittens 3 Goal 1 - Burns (from Teravainen) Goal 2 - Svechnikov (from Slavin and Necas) Goal 3 - Necas (from Svechnikov and Bear)

Nachos!!! Good to see him get on the board.

Man… Andersen looking a little rough.

Seeley did a terrible job of boxing Lomberg out on that second goal.

After one… Canes 2 - Kittens 0 Goal 1 - Burns (from Teravainen) Goal 2 - Svechnikov (from Slavin and Necas)
