And I appreciate the time and effort to create those threads. Maybe until we get way deeper in the season, a simple, no frills thread will suffice. Tell ya what, I'll start the Montreal thread tomorrow, keep it simple and tell me what you all think?

Yeah, I have to agree. Trying to scroll my way through to where the game started & ended is a royal pain. Why not just start a game thread for each game and delete the previous game?

The playbook isn't worth squat. Everyone else in the league already knows it better than Brady.

Not to mention the arena feed on the big screen is also the TV feed.

It's all perspective, I understand, but moving the team out of North Carolina? Does that count?

Reddick spent more time dropping into coverage yesterday than he did the previous 5 games. Did Snow think with YGM back, he could use Reddick as a pass defender? Made no sense to me.

I'm looking at the schedule to see when we can coordinate attending a game with our flight the next morning to the Caribbean. We live about an hour from Raleigh, so we get a hotel near the airport because the best flights are out early. Then we go to a Canes game, if they're home, the night before we fly. Lots of fun. We last did it in February 2020 the night before we flew to Aruba. Turns out that might have been one of the last home games with fans they played.

Trip spends more time talking about how Freddie tracks the puck- "Where his eyes go, his body follows..." He must have made that statement 3-4 times Saturday night, in the second and third periods alone. I get it though, what Trip is saying and what I'm seeing don't sync. He is very good post-to-post, though. And I've still not seen anything to prove to me the Barzal goal in the home opener was legit.

If you don't want them at that price because of the product, why do you think anyone else will pay that for the same product. Do yourself a favor- sell your game tickets for the rest of the season and hold onto the PSL until they have a decent season, then sell. Trust me, I began selling my game tickets, sometimes at a loss, thru the 2011 and 2012 seasons because I had already decided to unload the PSLs. Then during the 12-4 2013 season, I sold them and actually made money- not a lot, but a couple bucks. And I was a PSL owner from 1995.

Year 2 of a rebuild and it's obvious another rebuild is in order.

That's game.

400+ yards of offense for Minnesota

Today wii mark the day, after only 2 home games, the stadium will become home field for all visiting teams. Carolina Panthers, you are done. Stadium empty yet?

"Hello, Mark Davis? David Tepper here. By all means, you have permission to interview Joe Brady right now if you like. Matter of fact, if you could make that happen before the 3rd quarter starts, that'd be great."

Vikes know this offense better than the Panthers.

https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/2202704 Let's see... he goes to the LTIR and doesn't play another shift during the regular season, only to be miraculously 100% the minute the playoffs start. Tampa Bay then goes to the playoffs with a near $100M roster.

RBA changed up a couple lines in the 3rd, he left the 4th line alone. It all came down to lefties, righties and the face-off dots. A lot of not very crisp passes are leading to turnovers. But, once the Canes took the lead last night I did notice they stood tall at the blue line and decided not to give Nashville uncontested entry. I said it last year and I'll continue this year- Jesper Fast in a very underrated player on this roster. Stepan, Bear, TDA... I'm liking this roster a lot. I think it allows for more flexibility in changing up lines and I think RBA has a lot more options.

The last preseason game Anderson gave up 3 soft goals before I turned it off, but to be fair, he didn't have any starters in front of him. Roman Josi is a Cane Killer and he always seems to play well against Carolina. That being said, he'll take a few hits tonight, I think.

And cannot contend with him for 6-8 games per season.

Who? Aren't those guys buried down the depth chart somewhere? Oh, wait.........

Yep. Most of that is because the NHL has kept the salary cap as simple as it can possibly be and as long as the annual cap number isn't ridiculous, you won't see an A-Rod or Albert Pujols type contract in the NHL. I prefer it that way over having to hire some Ivy League educated capologist just to have an elementary understanding. That being said, there are some loopholes that could be closed in the NHL system (Tampa Bay Lightning and their $92M roster last season).

Say hello, Greg Hardy.... That being said, he thumped whoever that was in the 1st on that break. When was the last time you saw Dougie do that... if ever?

I'm liking what I see from each of the new blue-liners.

Had a chance to bury these guys.
