Well... the Canes will have to go through the defending Stanley Cup Champions in round one.

The series will most likely start this Wednesday. The Canes were 0-3-1 against the Capitals in the four games the two teams played during the regular season and two of the games were very close.

It will be really interesting to see Ferland against Wilson in this matchup as playoff hockey is a whole different breed.

One of Mrazek's only blemishes in the last 13 games was against the Capitals, hopefully he can steal us this series.

I hate the Caps, how Wilson is still playing in the NHL is beyond me and Ovechkin is a cherry-picker with one shot in his arsenal, from the left wing.

Nothing would make me happier than to see the Caps go down in flames, but I just don't see it for at least the first round.

Wilson has a bad rep but there are way worse guys in the league than him. I hate them all too, but gotta give credit to Ovechkin. Everyone knows what’s coming every time and the guy still scores. He’s unstoppable and will probably be the all time goal leader when he retires, which is kind of unfathomable considering the era he’s played in. Winning this series would be like winning the cup for me, as making the playoffs this year was already a huge deal.

Question: How has there been 0 posts in this sub-forum since we've been playing playoff hockey? Let's get hype boys. GAME SEVEN. I honestly am prepared for a loss but at least having a chance is better than nothing. Road team is 0-6 in the series. But hey, we got the first lead change of the series tonight, and might have Svech or/and Ferland back for game 7. Hopefully Marty didn't re-injure himself too hard tonight. 

Let's go Canes!

They put a thread in the main Panthers forum to try to get a little more involvement from the others that don't frequent this subforum.  Check it out.

      Strength of Schedule

      By chknwing · Posted

      I'm looking at the schedule and I see a 10+win season easy.  I think Carolina goes undefeated in the division.  I also believe that the Bears, Bengals, Lions, Browns, Steelers are very winnable.  Revenge game with phillips and the eagles could be a win.  Honestly only 2 games I see as chalking up a L to off the bat is the Seahawks and Broncos.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?
