Honestly they aren’t bad. Their defense is not as staunch as it was last year and I have no idea why they start merzlikins. Their O looks legit though vs. most of the league, their lines rushes have been pro. But like you said, they are probably a notch below us. 

Yeah, this is a Columbus team that gave Carolina fits last year, although they look nothing close to who they were last year.

Never expected Andersen to come in and play so well. I know it is early, but he is on pace for a career year.

Ned on the other hand isn't looking too hot in Detroit although they don't have the best team in front of him.

With the way the Canes are currently playing, this is easily a Cup contending squad.

Maybe they actually knew what they were doing when they let Dougie and Ned go?

Maybe Ned actually was a product of playing behind our good defense. 

Gonna be honest about TDA too. Overall he is not as good as Dougie, but I like what he brings to the team just a little bit more. I've been saying for years that the Hurricanes needed some attitude and toughness. HOPEFULLY he can keep his poo together.

I think we're seeing a powerplay that's operating on much better puck movement and unpredictability.

When Dougie was running the pp it was either going to be a blast from the blue line or he was gonna be the primary assist guy.

Dougie's point streak was impressive, but that's not actually better for the team.  Ideally if we can have better offensive numbers or pp numbers and points are spread around then that means we're more unpredictable and harder to defend.

      Shaq Thompson’s house

      😆If you're not elite or a potential HOFER, then LG calls you "run-of-the-mill" or "meh." Shaq has had a decent career---better than many longtime starters, but not everyone is built to be worthy of the Hall Of Fame.

      I don't even blame Remmers. The Falcons did us a massive favor showing us his Achilles heel in our lone regular season loss. They ruined our perfect season but in doing so they should've helped us win the SH. Remmers absolutely couldn't handle an elite speed rusher one on one. Providing Remmers help on Von Miller out of the gate should have been plan A in SB50 and we needed to have a plan B of shifting to focus more on quick developing routes of our typical slow developing downfield passing game wasn't planning out. Remmers gets most of the blame from fans for the outcome of that game but honestly I put much more of the blame on Shula. Vic Beasley and the Falcons had already given you a preview. The Broncos players literally laughing in the post-game interviews about how we changed up literally nothing for that game was just the icing on the cake. Shula was playing checkers against Wade Phillips chess.

      After the phins didnt jump on a hard count he said "they didnt bite the cheese" the wife and I nearly pissed ourselves laughing. Not - they didnt take the bait - they didnt bite the cheese   Between that and all the talk of square shoulders and the way he over emphasizes EVERYTHING its exhausting
