If the Canes win this, they need to go play the lottery.

It's gonna take a net front goal. Put Jarvy out there with Noesen and Bunting on his wings...

3.... there was another right after you posted.

That 4 on 4 was scary bad for the Canes. Terrible.

Svech is not ready to come back. He is skating very tentatively and avoiding contact.

If there's a positive to come from this, the Canes should be getting a couple calls.

Another fugging kill needed. WTF, gentlemen.

Not a lot of o-zone time, sloppy play and inability to handle the puck. Better regroup and get their heads out of their asses.

Got my custom decal today. Will be on the back window of my Jeep tomorrow.

I had a Stephen Davis #48 and a Lamar Lathon #57. If I put them on today and walked into the stadium, all 42 Panther fans in attendance wouldn't know who they were.

We really didn't hear Aho's name much during the Avs game, so that's who I'm going with.

That answers a lot of questions..... jk.... glad you're okay.... I think.

Standings following the Canes win over the Avs: Anybodyhome- 4 Harbingers- 4 BY9Franchise- 4 DavidEng- 3 Panthers Fan 69- 2 WelshPanther- 2 DamnitJake!- 2 MillionDollarCam- 1 ----------------------------------------- Start making your picks for the Saturday tilt against the NJ Devils.

It's the only penalty that results in a player getting tossed without a legit reason like a slash, hook, roughing, etc.

5 solid kills tonite. Canes need to finish this off with a PP tally now.

Huge PK here. Questionable goalie interference. Georgie was outside the paint and initiated the contact with Staal.

Raanta and Kochetkov should have their pictures on milk cartons- they go missing every time you need them. And, they're both perfect examples of why an investment needs to be made in a top-tier net minder. We know the Avs will score at least 3 because Raanta has to give up his usual gimme.

Going with a D-man against the Avs tonite. Brady Skjei.

Canes will need to be better than 2 goals against the Avs. Georgiev has a save percentage as bad as Kochetkov, so this could be another 6-4 game like their first meeting in October.

Vancouver is a legit cup contender and, like Boston and NY, the Canes have to find ways to win games that are 1-1 or 2-2 late in the game. Last night, I think, is how the Canes season will ultimately end in the first or second round.

9 SOG well into the 2nd? Missed the game to this point- may get home for the 3rd....

Canes going against one of the best goalies in the league right now and their typical pattern of shooting perimeter shots from distance will not win this game. So, a net front presence will be required and a couple redirects or tip-ins off rebounds will be the difference. Accordingly, what does Carolina do with their best net front goal scorer? Bury Noesen on the 4th line. That's gonna come back to haunt them.

Going with Necas tonight.

Churches are a business just like any other. Customer service is typically sub-par and getting someone to call you back is asking way too much. My opinion, but maybe just the atheist in me coming out. Anyway, as LG suggested, just go and talk with them. Here is the best advice I can give you from a first-hand perspective. Both my in-laws have passed in the last couple years and none of their final wishes have been kept or met by any of the family. Specific requests for services or final resting place or internment- none of that was respected or carried out by the family. Although my wife is the oldest and was the executrix for both her parents, her aunts, uncles and brother all basically ganged up on her and she acquiesced. The only thing that was done accordingly were the cremations. And I'm sure there were those who wanted to sidestep that as well. Any way, here were are almost 3 years later and my in-laws are tucked nicely in their respective little boxes in the guest bedroom closet of my house. Mom passed first- very unexpectedly- and she wanted her ashes to be spread at the beach. Dad was next, a year later to the day almost. In the year since Mom passed he bought a double columbarium vault at their church for them both to be placed, which was totally against Mom's wishes- the beach and all. But Dad wanted to be put in the vault with his wife. I'm a little pissed that my wife hasn't fulfilled her mother's wishes. I told her to take some of the ashes and we'll spread them at the beach like she wanted. The rest can go into the columbarium with her Dad, fulfilling his wishes. Although I am pretty anti-religion and have my own thoughts, I do respect other people's faiths and beliefs in that regard and I find that not fulfilling someone's final wishes is pretty disrespectful. I mean, they ask one final thing of you and you can't even do that? I know, tldr, but put forth your best and honest effort to make this happen for your brother. I think you'll disappoint yourself if you don't.

I met Carl Weathers in 1980 in Oakland, CA. It wasn't that long after Rocky 2 and he was still is major condition for that movie. I was 24 at the time, in the Navy. Dude just looked huge to me, and I'm 6'6". Very nice guy, personable and enjoyed having a conversation with a handful of us. Of course, it was back in the day before everyone seemingly wanted a piece of fame. No paparazzi, no autographs, selfies...
