So, the Canes lost a tough one Sunday night. Hey, they're down 2 top defensemen and their top scorer was out with an illness. It's been a week of late night hockey games as the western Canada road trip winds down, so I missed the second half of the game last night. But, what I find refreshing and important is when the Canes lose a game, it's not the end of the world and this board doesn't fill up with pages of threads calling for coaches to be fired, trade players, cut players, stop going to games, stop watching games, stop caring about the team, burn down the stadium, etc. like another message board does here on a weekly basis. Thank you all for remaining civil, remaining calm and enjoying the game. Thanks for supporting the Canes and keeping a positive attitude going forward, knowing they're going to lose a game on occasion. I'll lurk and occasionally post something sarcastic on the Panthers board, but it's gotten as toxic and nasty as the Tinderbox. It's a game, folks.

Hulu is carrying it as well. I don't have Hulu or ESPN+, so I hope it's on DirecTV somewhere.....

Vancouver is not good. This is disappointing.

I really like Bear on this roster. Great fit and he's playing very well. Canes totally outplayed Vancouver. That should not happen and this should be a pretty easy win.

He's knowledgeable, yet goofy enough to make it fun.

Off goalies foot after the high stick? Vancouver touched it after Svech high sticker. That's a good goal.

Looks good early.

Been going around the locker room. Same thing that held Bear out the other day.

I watched about 10 minutes of the Panther game. Waste of time. I want to see Rodgers, Mahomes, Herbert, Josh Allen, Murray playing QB. That's fun to watch football.

Exactly.

You know that subtitle you've got for the Tinderbox forum? "This place is awful. You have been warned." Maybe you should be using a variation of that for this board: "This organization is awful. You have been warned."

Couple of tweaks to the lines and Raanta is confirmed in net tonight. VANCOUVER, BC. - The Carolina Hurricanes will wrap up their Canadian swing this evening with a lineup similar to the one that has brought them success thus far on the trip. Head Coach Rod Brind'Amour said Saturday morning that his goaltenders would be splitting the weekend and with Frederik Andersen having played and won last night, that means this evening it is Antti Raanta's crease. It will be Raanta's first start since last Saturday, when he stopped 32 of 34 en route to a victory over Buffalo. He also said yesterday that there were a few game-time decisions, but everyone appeared to make it through last night's contest just fine. When asked today if he would have the same cast ready to go tonight, he shared that he does expect that to be the case. The team's projected lineup for this evening against the Canucks is as follows: Forwards: Niederreiter - Aho - Teravainen Svechnikov - Trocheck - Fast Jarvis - Staal - Necas Lorentz - Kotkaniemi - Stepan Defensemen: Slavin - Cole Skjei - Chatfield Smith - Bear Starting Goalie: Raanta Scratches: Tony DeAngelo (COVID-19 Travel Restrictions) Brett Pesce (COVID-19 Travel Restrictions) Max Lajoie

You do have choices in life. One of those being the best use of your time while not knowing if tomorrow ever comes.

Package? Fugging package!?

The Hurricanes have won 3 straight on their western Canada road trip. Playing very good hockey without 2 of their top 4 defenseman. Y'all should check out the game day forum over there. No bitching, complaining and ragging on the coach. Just a bunch of hockey guys enjoying the game and the team's success.

"Panthers defense very good on 1st down..." Just one small issue with that.... mostly, the other 3 downs they suck.

Ohhhh boy.....

Gotta do it again.

This game is on my bucket list and 2022 is looking good. Navy has been down a couple years now. They're searching for their next QB. Defense won this game.

Jarvis is totally gassed. Would not be surprised to see him as a healthy scratch soon. He's young and doesn't have the muscle maturity to be in the condition as the other guys. Like the physicality of the Canes, as long as they stay outta the box. Canes can score on this guy. I expect 1, maybe 2 Canes goals in the 3rd.

"Sean McDermott, please pick up the white courtesy phone...."

Is he a QB option? He might be available for a couple draft picks.....

Which QB on the roster might be capable of doing that?

The key words being In this country your commute is not considered part of the job, in that you're not "on the clock." Salaried employees may have something different in their employment agreement or contract, but typically the commute back and forth to your domicile is not covered under workers compensation. And to those who went from an office setting to working remotely from home, I would think there were stipulations regarding work hours, as this is the key factor in determining liability.
