Will the game be shown in the Triad?

it 100% wont be in wilmington. to be eligiable you must be within the 75 mile broadcasting range, which sucks, but it also rules should there ever be a blackout. Also, get to a bar about 30 minutes early, if you plan to go to fox and the hound or buffulo wild wings or someplace like that i suggest an hour, because trust me, you wont be alone and you might not get a seat.

head to the panthers fan legion, should start to be some activity in the wilmington area thread.

"Locally, in addition to the NFL Network, fans will be able to see the game on WAXN-TV 64 in the 22-county Charlotte television market. Outside of the Charlotte market, only people who have the NFL Network from the Dish Network or Direct TV on satellite or Comcast and a few other cable systems in North and South Carolina will be able to view the broadcast. The game will not be carried by Time Warner Cable systems outside of Charlotte throughout the Carolinas."

A big meh to that.

No wonder folks think this is a small market team. Draw that circle out another 50 miles and you pick up the Triad, Columbia SC, Greenville/Spartanburg SC, and probably Asheville NC. That adds quite a few more who are usually in the broadcast area. It's BS. I'm less than 100 miles from Charlotte and always get the games, yet have no access to NFL Network other than satellite. Funny thing is, I can't remember this happening until now. Oh well, I guess I have to hit the local dive.

The local carriage of NFL Network games is a NFL rule. The Panthers can not do anything about it. Only one station is allowed to carry it outside of the NFL Network.

    • Kalkbrenner and Sion James received regular contracts and not two ways, so the Hornets have some work to do to cut the roster size down. 
    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
