hockey is boring, that being said Ill always support the state squad once they make the playoffs. explain the hurricanes to me like a 5 year old. whos the best player? who is the coach? will they have a chance at winning a series?

Best player is Sebastian Aho, but he's been pretty average the past month. Still, he's thought of as the best player. Had a breakout season this year. Rod Brind'Amour is the Coach, he was the Captain on the Stanley Cup team from 2006 (picture below). They have a chance, as everyone has a chance to win in the NHL Playoffs. An Eighth seed's goalie can get hot, and they can make the Stanley Cup Finals (see the Predators two years ago). Fun fact, in 2006, the Hurricanes were a 1 seed in the Stanley Cup Finals and went to 7 games vs the Wests 8th seed in the Edmenton Oilers. The first team to make the Finals of any Professional sport as an eighth seed since the 1999 New York Knicks.

What the hell  is this? 

I don't  care what  time  of year  it  is--this  has  nothing to  do  with  the Panthers and this  is a Panther  forum.   Why is that concept  so difficult?

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh, okay. Well, it's the offseason, which means that this can happen. Did you complain when there was 85 Mocks being created? Did you complain about the Mahomes arm strength vs Josh Allen thread? Bruh, get your priorities straight. This is the only Professional Carolina team that made the Playoffs the last year. Why is this concept so difficult? If you didn't like the Thread, don't come in the mother fuger. DUHHHHHHHHHH.

Panthers forum or not you would think that a savvy businessman like Jeremy would like to make his message board the premier Carolina sports message board.

Right now he has little to no competition when it comes to viewership and membership for Canes and Hornets fans outside of a few national boards that aren’t affiliated with anything Carolina.

If he wants to move the thread fine, but to bitch and complain about this state’s only team who is on the upswing and has a chance to be special is elementary.

You don’t like hockey, ignore it... simple as that.

But if you want to support a team who has had more national publicity (that should have been capitalized on by this website) in the last three months than the Panthers have had since they went to the Super Bowl then join the rest of us who actually want to see THEIR STATE’S team do well... regardless of the sport.

GO CANES!

This has to do with getting the team some exposure...because for once this year we have a sports team in the post season.  Some may not like it...but as the playoffs heat up...most will be happy its here.

      something to feel good about in the offseason..."could be something special brewing in Carolina"

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I've been hearing all about this "winning culture" for years while watching us piss away top shelf draft position with meaningless late season wins when we're already eliminated from the playoffs but being assured this is building "winning culture" just to inevitably suck again next year. With that said, I'll always take a playoff berth. Just make the dance and you have a chance to make some noise. But spare me the "winning culture" bullshit.

      Winning culture trumps ALL.    Here’s my way to long take:  Last season this team started out breaking the sports books and being the lead pipe lock of the week. They finished by being a tough out for both SB teams.  I don’t think they’ll pick up right where they left off, but for the first time in years they’re on the legitimate upswing. Honest to God NFL talent has been infused.  Offense is already going to be good for 2-3 more 3rd down conversions (I don’t think anyone will argue that) a game over last year so I’ll go (very optimistically) 5-6 more points better than last year’s team. ADDED: A legit backup RB and a money WR who catches everything, along with 2 promising rooks. No significant losses (sorry Miles). KEYS: Can Dave bob and weave play calling if things aren’t working? Does protection continue to hold for Bryce. Did this team pick up dudes who know how to find the end zone or will the struggle of 3rd and goal continue.  Defense. If they can force even 2 (hopefully 3) more stops a game on third down (not asking a lot, hopefully more), that’s good for -4 (optimistic) points for opposing teams.  ADDED: legit run stuffers. Legit (appearing) edge guys. LOST: Clowney. Question: With legit 3-4 talent can Evero finally show what we have been VERY patiently waiting on? To me, EVERYTHING on defense hinges on Evero. Everything. Every position group was upgraded (still not good enough, but certainly improved).  Losing Brown early and Luvu… completely and utterly devastated the run defense. Luvu put up one of the best seasons at LB this team has ever seen. His under appreciation by some fans was criminal. He alone was our 3 down stop machine. Brown was pretty much it up front. Those 2 held RBs in check long enough for safety help to arrive.  Coaching: Halftime adjustments and no prevent defense. In a nutshell, that’s pretty much it. No cutesy offense to show off WRs/Bryce when it’s not working. Use your sledgehammers, Dave.  There is finally veteran leadership and legit NFL talent. It’s going in the right direction (I couldn’t have been more wrong last offseason) to build a winning culture, but teams have to learn how to win, especially the games where nothing is going right (this team has NEVER been able to do that). They will still lose more close games than they win, and that alone is where it all hinges.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      With his current level of play I'm quite content to not activate his 5th year option and let him walk away for free after year 4.
