Well, as many of you may have noticed, there is a new blog. It started in the season thread and we decided to just make it a blog and see if maybe, just maybe, we could build something. Some interest in hockey and our Hurricanes, or at least some interest in mildly funny, smart ass write ups on each of the games.

By "we", I'm referring to myself and @RealBitsOfPanther. The link for the blog will be at the bottom. If you like the content, let us know. Then, let somebody who likes hockey and/or the Canes know. Spread this like a vineraal disease (without the itching and burning)!

Alright guys. So @RealBitsOfPanther and myself have seen that apparently, you guys like reading the content for The Canes Blog. We really want to cover the full season and off-season moving forward. We have ideas but we're only two dudes with relationships and jobs and whatnot, so posting regularly is difficult with just us 2. We're opening the door to knowledgeable fans to come on and help us. Any content ideas are welcomed, as we want to offer more than just pre and post game wrap-ups. So, if you're interested in doing so let myself or RealBits know.

If you don't want to contribute directly to content creation as a blogger, but have an idea or two about what kind of content you want to see, let us know. Or even just general feedback. We know we get around 150-300 views per article, but we would like to hear from you guys. We're dedicated to making this a helpful, fun, and entertaining endeavor for you all here, so any and all help is greatly appreciated.

@MillionDollarCam, you'd be a welcome addition FWIW.

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      They traded away their 1st next year also to get James Pearce Jr. Really hope this blows up in the Falcons face. I don't care how it happens, I just want to win the division this year. Zero sympathy for other team's issues. And our pass rush looks like it needs all the help it can get.

      I would have released him this season, tbh and worked with Christensen out there.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By Seltzer · Posted

      10/10. We're due for some good luck, and I think this team is much better than what we've had the last 2 seasons. Defensive injuries could derail us b/c our depth there is still questionable. Still worried about the pass rush getting pressure without blitzing. Pleasantly surprised by the secondary and run defense.  Dan Morgan has done a lot to resurrect this roster from the deplorable position Fitterer left it in by showing some scouting chops with hitting on these guys drafted in the later rounds or UDFAs. Lathan Ransom & Corey Thornton both look like they fit this scheme and the NFL isn't too big for them.  I'm as excited for the rookie trifecta of T-Mac, Scourton, and Princely as I can remember. On paper, this offense is the most talented since 2021, maybe 2017, and maybe 2015. None of that means this team will produce any better, but this team has offensive talent & depth like we have rarely had in team history. If you don't believe me, go Google it. We've had some awful offensive collections overall in many years, to varying degrees mitigated by superstar talents like Steve Smith, Christian Mccaffrey, or Cam Newton.  I honestly think the collective offensive talent in 2025 may be better, but Cam was so otherworldly in 2015 & 2017 that he covered any flaws. Seriously, though, Cam doesnt get enough love for 2017. I think that may have been his best season. In general, Cam doesn't get enough respect IMHO. Both in college and in the NFL, Cam took teams that without him would have had no chance and won. True definition of a guy who elevated his team. To be clear, I am in no way am I saying this team will be better than 2017 or 2015. My point is that the offensive talent is there on offense if Bryce can unlock it.  I've been a Bryce supporter, but there are no excuses not to perform with this group. This isn't the disaster we gave him in 2023 or a new scheme like in 2024 where I think he hadn't mentally removed from his rookie season to start. I dont know how you couldnt be excited about that. And we still compete in a division that isn't insurmountable. I got got in 2023 like most of us in buying into the team propaganda, but in general, I think I'm pretty realistic about the team. I knew in my heart we would be bad last year. I wasnt expecting the defense to be that bad or Bryce to start off that poorly, but I had no expectations whatsoever for making the playoffs. And I genuinely think we will be competitive all year this season. I think we win 8-9 games and compete for the division. I think the ceiling is 11 wins, and the floor is 7. The good news is after next week, we will all be proven right or proven wrong. Keep Pounding!
