Drury scored 17 seconds into the game and Leivo scores with 17 ticks left on the clock. On another note... Chicago's D needs to get its act together. Allowing 35 shots is too much and Kochetkov gave up one and a fluke. And Chatfield made a ridiculous save with Pyotr out of position.

But we continue to see the stories about how Tiger Woods father did the same fugging thing as these parents do and he succeeded. Same with Venus and Serena Williams and a few other exceptionally talented athletes. And while society and the sports world idolizes and worships the athletes, for every one of them, there are likely hundreds of nightmares out there... Todd Marinovich, Eric Lindros, Andre Agassi, Roy Jones, Jr., Jennifer Capriati, Mary Pierce.....

I copied just a portion of the article here, but I'm not sure the front office and RBA have the patience to keep waiting on Necas to break out. He was drafted in 2017 and 5 years later the Canes are still waiting to see just who they drafted. I have to admit I agree with a lot of what's said- all kinds of speed and puck handling skills, but his reluctance to shoot and his complete lack of a physical game are cause for concern. I can't tell you how many times I found myself shouting at the TV for him to shoot the damn puck. https://www.newsobserver.com/sports/nhl/carolina-hurricanes/article262146767.html The Carolina Hurricanes might be looking to add a scoring forward before next season, someone who can produce, say, 25 or more goals, be a finisher and put some pop in the lineup. It could come from a trade. It could come in free agency. But what if that player already is on the roster? Martin Necas is a likable guy with an agreeable demeanor. That’s off the ice. On it, Necas’ critics say he’s not mean enough, a player with tons of speed and skill but one unwilling to do the dirty work in tough places. When the 2021-22 season began, many believed Necas might have a breakout year. He was entering his third full NHL season and in the third year of his entry-level contract. He had scored 14 goals and had 41 points in 53 games in the condensed 2020-21 season, and something like a 60-point year with 20-plus goals seemed attainable for the Czechia native. Didn’t happen. “For me personally, it was like a step back from the last season,” Necas said this week. Necas had 14 goals and 40 points in 78 games, and probably got as much attention for playing a golf round with singer Harry Styles before the season as he did for his play during the season. Including the 14 playoff games, he scored once in his last 30 games — the regular-season finale against New Jersey. Necas had five assists in the playoffs as the Canes fell in the second round to the New York Rangers, and was so ineffective at times there was speculation he might be scratched. “Obviously it was a disappointing season for me,” Necas said. “I just couldn’t get into it. I’ve got to help the team more, got to produce way more. That’s what everyone kind of expects from me, and I didn’t do it.”

Let's not forget the Canes beat NY 3 out of 4 times during the regular season and the one loss was a shutout by Georgiev (backup goalie). That being said and in keeping with the thoughts posted, one need only look at the ridiculous disparity of penalties called on the Rangers vs anyone else they play and realize that's why they are where they are. They have a very good power play and they get more of them than anyone else.

By the way... Alex Lyon is a really bad goalie.

I'll try to catch all of them if that happens... or I'll save them.

Never mind, I got the AHL TV app, but the playoff package is $30 and looking at the schedule I'll probably miss at least 3 games this series... YouTube highlights will have to do it for me...

Where can I see the AHL games?

I tend to believe this is a lot of legal and financial tap-dancing that will allow everyone to get their place at the table and the projects gets finished sooner or later. -

Panthers terminating Rock Hill project agreements

I know business property owners in my city who have a different LLC for each property they own, thereby protecting all their other properties if one tanks. Matter of fact I was doing some title work yesterday for a local commercial building owner who has 6 buildings downtown, and for each of them the property owner is the address LLC, for example, "123 Main St., LLC." There's no limit to the number of LLCs you can create and they're all separate entities. -

Hi there, I'm the code enforcement administrator for a mid-size municipality here in NC. Every city and town in the state has a set of local ordinances that regulate everything from grass height to noise ordinances to public nuisances to parking to nuisance vehicles. It's called zoning, planning, code enforcement, etc. I'm the guy responsible for ensuring the proper legal notices are issued and nuisance abatement by our contractors is done properly and providing all the information to the accounting folks so they can properly bill the property owner. I have 5 inspectors who each have an assigned area within the city and they issue notices on a daily basis for this kind of crap. -

Well, if the parcel is owned by same real estate holding company that's filing bankruptcy, the city will have to initiate a legal notice ordering the property owner to remove it as a public nuisance. And because of the bankruptcy, the property owner probably won't comply with the order to remove it, so it will fall on the shoulders of the taxpayers as the city will have to contract someone to tear it down. The cost of the tear down then becomes due and payable by the property owner to the city and if that bill isn't paid, it becomes a lien against the property. The city then goes to court with a lien foreclosure on the property and takes ownership of it. -

Official Canes Off-season Thread
Anybodyhome replied to Panthers Fan 69's topic in Carolina Hurricanes
I'd bet they don't make a decision on Gardiner until they figure out TDA, Bear, Cole and Smith. They get TDA and Bear signed, they can afford to buy out Gardiner and pick up a couple blue liners to fill out the roster. Cole and Smith are both 33 and will not likely be back. -

If the Canes decided to make this move, it would mean letting both Trocheck and Domi walk. Although Trocheck I think will get a nice payday elsewhere regardless, Domi is a better C then a winger. This could either backfire big time or make a very nice #2 line. It also means the Canes would have a little wiggle room to sign a FA winger, which is a little cheaper than a center. The Canes projected cap space today is a little over $19k. -
I was still on active duty serving with Carrier Group Seven out of San Diego when the original was filmed. Let's just say Mr. Cruise, at the time, was pretty much a dick. He rode his motorcycle around the base at Miramar and was pulled a few times for speeding (most bases are posted 25 & 35 everywhere). Some of the carrier scenes the ship had to maneuver to catch the sun just right for the shot or get the wind in a certain direction... I was still competing in triathlons at the time and I would ride by the house they used for Kelly McGillis's character. It was moved down the block from where it was built to make room for a beachfront promenade, but here's a pre-move story: I was in San Diego just 2 weeks ago to see my father and I took my wife to see the other famous location- where the Top Gun CO lived, which is the Coast Guard San Diego Lighthouse property: This is where it is on Point Loma:

https://www.nhl.com/news/carolina-hurricanes-jordan-staal-plans-to-play-final-season-of-contract-before-deciding-future/c-334420904 RALEIGH, N.C. -- Jordan Staal will not seek an extension with the Carolina Hurricanes ahead of the final season of his contract. "I'm going to ride out this contract," Staal said. "Eleven years is a long time here and it's been special. I'm going to ride it out next year and hopefully finish with a bang and go from there." The center has one season remaining on a 10-year, $60 million contract ($6 million annual average) he signed July 1, 2012. Staal was acquired by the Hurricanes from the Pittsburgh Penguins on June 22, 2012 for the No. 8 pick in the 2012 NHL Draft, center Brandon Sutter and defenseman Brian Dumoulin. The trade united him with his brother, Eric. The Staal brothers played together with the Hurricanes until Eric was traded to the New York Rangers on Feb. 28, 2016. "It's been a great ride obviously," Staal said. "I came down here obviously to play with Eric and really be a part of the Carolina Hurricanes club, and (I) came down here to win. It's been a ride. Obviously a lot of ups and downs. As of right now, it's been a lot of fun on the ice and the players we have. It's been a blast." ------------------------------------------------------------------- One more season as the captain. And I'll be the first to admit I was very wrong about his skill set this season. I thought he was ready to retire and that his physical skills may be waning, but I was wrong. This guy took his line to a completely different level this past season. Much respect, Jordo.

Only one of those will be back- Nino. And he's not built to be a "closer" playing where he is on the grinder line. Necas got benched during the season when he slumped and apparently took on an attitude to go with it. If I'm looking to move someone, he's probably near the top of the list. -

When MillionDollarCam mentioned this, I was thinking he was the play before the trade deadline. I think it was around the same time that TDA was out with the injury. -

We'll have to agree to disagree. The issues with forwards and goalies are more concerning to me than the blue line when it comes to the cap. -

RBA opted for experience over youth in the post-season. Cole was horrible and Smith us a little something once in a while. He didn't play Lorentz either, until he had no choice. RBA and his staff have always been pretty high on Bear, and have made plenty of comments to that effect over the course of the season. Defense isn't what ended the Canes season this year, but hey, it's your observation and opinion. -

Their top 4 are Slavin, Pesce, Skjei and TDA. The experts tend to disagree with your assessment of Bear, but we'll see.
