I really hope Rod runs Svech-Aho-Necas come playoff time once we get Tro and potentially TT back. 
 

I could even see a Svech-Tro-Necas line before then too. Once tro is back. 

Yeah definitely can't break up Aho and Necas any time soon, their chemistry is just too good. Can't believe how well we've played without TT and Tro. With Necas emerging, Nino producing, Staal producing more offense, etc. our forwards are a much bigger strength than I thought coming into the year, once fully healthy. And with Ned emerging in net and our D group obviously being top 5 in the league, we really don't have many holes this year... Could still use a bit more toughness and physicality in our bottom 6, though Paquette has been a great addition in those aspects and Martinook has been playing better than last year, even if the points aren't piling up. Tampa in the playoffs likely with Kucherov back will still be a monster, but we really should be one of a handful of favorites for the cup this year, and our future going forward is frigging unbelievably bright.

Staal is going to have to step up closer to the playoffs and pull a Williams with a fight and take the two games or w/e. I don’t know who we replace besides foegele(who I think is just slumping offensively) to get another offensive tough guy. I did like nino stepping up to the plate to defend Aho though. Nino strikes me as a cold clocker if he ever actually got in a fight.

Call me crazy but I don't think a guy coming off hip surgery and not having played all season will instantly return to form....

I agree to some degree, but I do think by the time they/we get to the 2nd round he'll be good enough at that point to improve their team, and even without him they're an absolute force. We'll see how it plays out, I'm not scared of the Lightning by any means but they are the defending champs and were 1st in the league until tonight...

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By strato · Posted

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.

      oh now that's what you call Mother Fiuggure fans the ones that always have this fierce protective shield around the team no matter if they win or lose  & to be honest there is nothing really wrong with being a Mother Fiugguer fan they just have a different meaning or sense of what a true fan really is                                                 ☺️
