Stanley Cup Playoffs Round One: Hurricanes vs. Capitals


Recommended Posts

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.

    • I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.
    • Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy. 
    • I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
