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.

    • What it feels like is a horrible source reality. What a person sees is a horrible source for reality. Stats can be easily misunderstood because because they are interpretive and contextual. Very large data sets with dozens more more connected variables are difficult to deal with and understand correctly. Throw in confirmation bias, abstraction, emotions and the way human brains are wired make it really easy to roll with eye tests and intuition. The negativity for Bryce was really high and most were ready to trade that asset for peanuts until the second half of last year when he began to play much, much better.  Hope sprang eternal.  The Saints game last year.  Going toe to toe and almost beating the two teams who went to the Superbowl last year.  Beating the Falcons when the Falcons had everything to play for.  Haters started adjusting their tune. Fan and media starting saying it looks like Carolina has found their franchise QB.   The real answer was and is, maybe. If he plays great on Sunday the anti-Bryce crowd will find other excuses or say it's only one game. If he plays horrible, it'll be more of the "I told you so. I knew it before he was drafted." (which is beyond stupid since there there is not an actual way to know if a player will be successful in the NFL or not.) I'll leave with a simple example.  Of the initial list of incompletions due to WR error, Jarod Goff has 0.  He was 31 for 39 at an almost 80% completion percentage.  His WR's much has balled out. Except when you add the facts that only 11 of those passes were to WRs.  14 were to RB's and 6 to the TE.  Gibbs has 10 of those receptions and he's elite so that explains why we shouldn't put much stock into this stat.  But then we see that Gibbs also set an NFL record with the least number of yards (31) for any player with at least 10 receptions in a game. Fun stuff! Oh yeah.  From week 1 how many people had Justin Fields and Daniel Jones playing at elite levels?   
    • How do you reconcile with the fact that the most competent and productive the Panthers passing offense has looked at any point between 2023 and 2025 were both games where Andy Dalton (who is completely washed and terrible) started? 680 passing yards and 5 touchdowns in two games. And one of those games was with Frank Reich as the head coach. This team needs competent QB play.
    • If we're in position and he is there, he will absolutely be the pick. He goes to South Carolina after all
