Meanwhile, this morning somewhere in the Caribbean....

I still love the game and will watch a good matchup, like yesterday's Packers-Rams game shaped up, but I was done with it by halftime. But I've become far more interested in hockey as a fast-moving sport with few clock stops and relatively few rules, not to mention a much easier salary cap structure to understand. I always enjoyed the game, but a Carolina Hurricanes experience a couple years ago really tipped the scale for me.

Looking back, that was probably the day after the draft in April.

At the end of the 2021 season the Panthers will have played 81 football games. McCaffrey will have played in 52 of those 81 (64%). He's beginning to approach Dan Morgan-like numbers. Morgan, if you'll recall, played in 59 of the 112 games (53%) on Carolina's schedule over his 7-year stint with the Panthers. To his credit, though, Morgan played in all 7 post-season games in 2003 and 2005.

Yeah, this is a tough stretch coming up: 11/30: @ Dallas 12/2: Ottawa 12/4: Buffalo 12/7: @ Winnipeg Jets 12/9: @ Calgary Flames 12/11: @ Edmonton Oilers 12/12: @ Vancouver Canucks 12/14: @ Minnesota Wild

Most likely see a huge improvement this bye week with zero chance to lose....

So, who's the top-rated DB in college?

Canes last 2 losses came at the hands of the officials at the end of the game.

Horrible officiating again. Washington loses this game with level officiating.

Washington doing their usual- they start getting out-played and then come the cheap shots. Martinook leveled Jensen.

Net front. Gotta get guys in front of Sam.

No benefit of the doubt no-calls from the refs today. That was a 50-50 at best.

Another wasted season trying to figure out their identity while rebuilding or not rebuilding- I don't think they know what they're doing.

Lemme check on that other team... oh, should not have done that. Newton 4 of 18 with 2 picks.... oh boy.

Fugging Wilson is nothing but a thug POS. Slashing the goalie. Fug him. Good on Smith to put him down.

The puck was well past the play and they call interference on Skjei?

Wait, Ovechkin didn't score the 2nd goal but he's the first guy to skate the bench?

Do not like anything Washington. How Tom Wilson still has a job in this league is beyond me. And you can watch Ovechkin stand on the left dot all day waiting for a cherry pick.

I boldly predict I'll be watching the Canes game with the Caps. Puck drop 1PM. Teams are tied at the top of the division, although Carolina has 2 more wins.

Easily the poorest performing team on the trip. Just shows no game is a gimme.

9 of 12 points on the first lengthy road trip of the season. Solid work.

Aho is getting his hatty on this PP.

Raanta was shaky, at best, through the first 30 minutes of this game.

Got that right. Not a lot being contested in front of him.

Nothing about Imagine Dragons musically intrigues me. Am I missing something?
