What did you want, a bunch of fights? Fights don’t win games, goals do. As far as physicality goes the Canes had 35 hits to the Panthers 32. The Canes lost in the third when the Panthers scored 5 goals on only 14 SOG. Canes were rarely on offense with only 3 SOG in the period. Canes lost due to defensive breakdowns, mistakes and a poorly defended net. Played in a panic, not their game.

I think Rod will be around a while longer, though these last three games hurt his stock. It appears that for these games with nice leads the opponent scores and then the Canes overreact and don’t stick with their game. I think it’s a confidence issue. With Bussi in net they were spoiled by him making great plays and when he let a goal in when the other team made a push, or anytime Freddie is in net and the opponent scores they fall apart and instead of offense the Canes get defensive, overreact and make mistakes. Is there a sports psychologist in the house? Medic!!!

I like Rod, but putting Anderson in net was flat out dumb. He should never see another game with the Canes. The defensive breakdown was the primary cause but Anderson hasn’t stopped shots he should have.

5 goals in the 3rd period. Will it go to 6 on an empty net?

I walked to the kitchen and back in a couple minutes and panthers scored 2 goals??? wtf

Florida 7 SOG in 2 periods, that’s shutdown defense right there. And Freddie doing his job. Do that in the third!

Svech outta da box woooo!!!

Robinson! First blood!

Freddie? For this game? Seriously? I don’t get it. Hope we get the best version of Freddie tonight.

I decided between hall and Robinson. Fiddy fiddy and I picked wrong.

Welp, that’s a wrap. Nadeau played well at least. Tough.not having Slavin, Martinook and Jarvis.

If this had been Freddie in net you and most here would be crucifying him by now lol.

We can’t pass. a big part of the story.

They have 5 goals. Kootch obviously has some blame here.

Defense has been trash but where’s our shutdown goalie as well.
