Panthers Fan 69

Unfortunately I agree. This is as far as Rod takes us. Against elite teams, his style is trash vs elite playoff hockey

Fans online on X are saying the booing wasn't at the team but the refs. 

100% at the the team. The crowd turned at the end of the 2nd and booed them off the ice in the both 2nd and third periods.  
 

Rob has been great but this is far as he will ever take us with his defensive first system. Florida plays the same system. They just do it better with better players. Unfortunately, this is what we’re gonna get.

I have never seen the crowd turn on the hurricanes in 10 years like they have tonight. The handful of shoot the puck chants at the end of the second and the booing at the end of each period shows they are tired of Rod and the poo system that’s on the ice.

I mean Rod fuged up by not putting Orlov and Nikishin together. Orlov can play his off side. He did it a bunch in Washington.

Nikishin can’t speak English so putting him with Ghost is useless.

Spread the wealth…

Svechnikov - Aho - Blake

Hall - Jankowski - Jarvis

Martinook - Staal - Carrier

Robinson - Roslovic - Stankoven

Slavin - Burns

Nikishin - Orlov

Gostisbehere - Walker

I don’t like any of this. Last time rod hit the blender early in the season it killed our momentum.  Kk has no been great so I get Janko coming in but Morrow again??? Over Boom??  What is happening?

That thought crossed my mind. Could be desperation, could also just be Svech trying to play mind games with Bob. Get him less focused and shake him up a bit.

Wait aren’t Svech and Bob friends?

The rust has been knocked off, hopefully Chatty is back, and the Canes will be motivated. Let’s get a win boys!

Guys lets move on from this thread.  Game is over. Let’s get good vibes going with tonight. Can’t change the past but we can be loud and proud for the future. 

Not saying it’s going to happen but I could see a game where we roll 6-1

I like it!  We are hear for a reason. The boys steamrolled the first two rounds. They can do it again. 
 

Janko over Roslavic and Chatty or Boom. 

Going Svech 

Ok boys. Game day. Game 2. They got this. Clean some stuff up and play Boom if needed. They will win. I believe it.  Pucks on Net. Pound them into the ice. 

Getting this out early so we can flush that abomination down the toilet from last night.  Start fresh if you will.  Win tomorrow and we will have not just our first ECF game win in 19 years, but will be back into it.  Put in Janko and play the Boom if Chatty can’t go.  LFG Canes!

Look Morrow played poorly. However he alone didn’t lose the game. There were 7 players in the minus column. We couldn’t score, and the Caps played a superior game.  

The whole team didn’t play well. Morrow was horrific.  Freddie was no good. In fact I don’t know when was the last time I saw us get Molly woped like that while outshooting them. Rod was not pleased post game. I listened to Adam gold on the can sea corner podcast and he wasn’t happy. Good news it that’s just game one. Gotta regroup 

Maybe play Janko and Nikishin?

Ouch Morrow, just ouch. -4 GS. 

fug you Rod.  Play the Boom 

Shoot it.  You could be a superstar.   fuging turn into the offensive shoot first star. 

Morrow of Boom was dumb.  

@Stumpy

can you use that big beautiful brain of yours and figure out a way to turn this into a gif with the canes?? I just love Korns Blind live at Woodstock 99 and the crowd. That will be Lenovo tonight.

Why would Morrow play over Nikki?

So far there’s been three things that have stood out to me of why the hurricanes are playing well. Something that they have not got in any other rounds in previous years. They’ve been able to get that clutch goal scoring when they need it, goaltending, and the depth. All three are really pushing the canes. 

Jarvis likes scoring on Panthers

Game day folks!!! We made it to a spot where few thought we could get to.  In dominating fashion. Looks like a lot of people are picking Florida. That’s cool.  Tonight is the tone setter. I believe it’s a must win. Freddie and Svech have been awesome.  Let’s see Aho and  Jarvis crank it up. Canes Vs Panthers. Rd 3 Game 1 8pm. LFG Canes!!!

@LinvilleGorgeadd “Tuesday 8pm” to the thread title and it’s party time!

The Canes have unfinished business with Florida.... I'll say that 

Like you said. We didn’t have elite all world Freddie and Con Smyth Svech. 
 

…..or the Boom….

Yeah this one is over.  Florida too strong.
