Recommended Posts

Rangers got some of the best broadcast guys in the business. They could not stop giving props to the Canes. First broadcast team I've heard talk about how great the Canes are. In order:

1. Gave Pyotr a ton of props all game long. It was a consistent slurp fest.

2. Talked about how great of a prospect Jarvis is.

3. Stated over and over again how Slavin was the best defensemen in the League. 

4. Even when the Rangers scored their second goal off of Fast, they didn't seem to give the Rangers props. Talked more about how it was off of Fast, but the Rangers player still deserved the goal.

5. talked about how dangerous the Canes were all night.

Also, one of the first things they said after the conclusion of the game was, "Congratulations to the Carolina Hurricanes for winning the Metro Division." It was also said with a true congratulatory tone. You wouldn't often hear that from an opposing team's broadcasters, especially when that opposing team was the one fighting to also win that same division.

It was wild man. I kept texting my buddies the direct quotes and they were stunned. 

Even on NBCSN last year none of those announcers gave the Canes any props.

    • He was saying Ron hid when he was cut/traded whatever that was.  I get being resentful, and feeling like that was gutless.  He, and Ron, neither are from the ‘breaking up with someone in a text or email is okay’ generation. That avoidance is seen as a lack of character.  Talking about it on camera how many years later? Why? And it is all one sided he said she said stuff. As he is speaking I am thinking well I bet that ain’t the whole story.    Between this type of stuff and him cheating on the wife stuff some of his shine is wearing off. 
    • I was very critical of Ron Rivera as a coach for a range of reasons. But Steve Smith has been playing the victim for years now and it's just not working anymore. We know for a fact that he was disgruntled from the moment we drafted Cam Newton because of his own ego. That says more about him than anything he could say about Rivera. And yes Ron Rivera had a lot of faults. No excuses for it. We were right to move on from him. But ultimately Steve Smith couldn't hold it together with that group the same as he struggled to hold it together under previous regimes. He needs to grow up and accept his own role in the last few years of his Panthers career because there are things he could and should have done differently the same as anyone else. Stop seeking to only shift blame to everyone else and evolve or just stop talking and fade away. This isn't helping anyone and it is certainly not helping his image.
    • A friend of mine was involved in building Steve Smith's house and nearly came to blows with him during the process.  Love Smitty as a player, but I've heard very little good about him as a human being.
