Rough game, I swear it seems like any team that has trouble beating us their answer is to resort to 80's style hits knowing the refs won't call but about 1 in 6.

Also someone had to have left the damn thermostat on that ice was really bad.

Some asshole probably left a window open and let the Birdicane fly away.

That's why I like this Canes forum.

There might not be alot of us here.  But, everyone is a pretty die hard fan. 

I follow the official Facebook group and it's no wonder other NHL fans crap on them so much.... Good group of guys here on the huddle. I had never seen a hockey game in my life back in the semi finals vs the Sabres when a co worker convinced me to go to games 5 and 7....  Fell in love with and became an informed fan by the time I went to game seven vs the Oilers, Williams putting us up 3-1 was one of the best moments I've seen live in professional sports.

So, TB came out like any team that has had their butt kicked for a few games and the Canes didn't look ready for it. Before you get a chance to breath, they put 10 shots on goal.

Anyway, Vas the Vag played well and if not for an own goal and Reimer not playing Stamkos's shot very well, it's a different game. 

The refs missed some obvious calls too, on both sides, but the majority of them from TB.

We skated real sloppy and kept getting in each others way. They got a little extra physical and we didn't adjust. One of our biggest weaknesses.

I know were going to be nursing more than one injury coming off last night too. Aho took at least 3 sticks to the face, Slavin took a shot to the face. McGinn and Necas were boarded. Reimer looked like he was struggling with something later in the game, He was hunched over more than usual, and those are just the ones I noticed. TT already down too, I think its worse than they are letting on.

I like Beans fire but he didn't look pro last night either and was a puck hog at times when he didn't really have a shot. Probably time to get Gardiner back in there.

Hopefully on the bright side this is the jump start Fast needed to start producing.

      NBC Sports 2026 NFL GM rankings

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      All these rankings have more to do with the writers love or hate for a team.  Morgan, IMO, has done a really good job at building this team.  Yeah, there are a couple of whiffs but for the most part he has done quite well drafting and signing free agents.  22 is a bit low but it's a stupid opinion based on how little a writer knows about the Panthers.

      Maybe? Maybe....?

      When I saw that I was thinking the same thing.  If Evero does have a great season and gets hired as a head coach I wouldn't mind see McD as our DC.  If we do poorly as a team, I definitely would want him to be the front runner for HC.

      Joe Person: Panthers are NOT expected to extend Bryce Young before the 2026 season

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      But it's not about not upsetting a player under contract, it's about not causing a rift in the locker room. The players love Bryce, whether as a person or a player doesn't matter.  You can't spend a Top 10 pick on a QB and then still start your #1 overall pick in the last year of their contract. That act alone will cause a massive locker room rift/distraction that would be unavoidable.  Some players will question why you "wasted" a Top 10 pick on a QB you're not going to start instead of someone who can help right away.  While others will question why we are keeping Bryce around for the season when it's clear he's not the future guy at that point. It would just make for a bad start to the rookie's career while causing locker room distractions.  Again, I'd bet this has never happened in this league before with any 1st round QB, let alone the #1 overall pick, and there is a reason for it, which is that it would be epically stupid to do. And I used the Vikings as the example as they're the closest I can think of, because again, there isn't a direct comparison as nobody has ever done it because it's that dumb of an idea (no offense lol).
