Ok some basic House cleaning for the regular season. Should we created one mega thread for games or still create game by game threads?

I prefer individual game threads. But then, I'd also like to see them disappear within a few days after the game. No need to leave them up for weeks after the game.

Orr, Montgomery, and Vondras headed back to juniors. Kind of wanted to see Orr during the preseason but, oh well. It was also reported that Fitzgerald isn’t taking part in training camp due to an undisclosed injury.

That’s four players gone, a good amount to go.

If I had to guess, I’d say the roster will be (if they keep 23):

Turbo - Aho - Jarvis

Svechnikov - Kotkaniemi - Necas

Stastny - Staal - Fast

Marty - Drury - Kase

Stepan

 

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

De Haan - Bear

Coghlan

Chatfield

 

Andersen

Raanta

 

If we only go with 22, I expect Chatfield to go down but he’ll obviously come back up in the event of an injury or if Bear gets traded. I also fully expect Noesen to be the first call up once Kase inevitably gets hurt.

Imagine the level of expectation and pressure on the kid named Bobby Orr to succeed in the NHL. Parents did him no favors...

They don’t disappear do they?  We can all create game threads I guess. Team effort!  
 

I wonder if NCFan will be back this year to annoy everyone?

I don’t see either of those games being played in TB if this storm does what they say it will. So they are going to get cancelled or moved to another venue.

By either I mean us or Nashville. 

It’s just one game in Tampa I thought?

Home game tonight vs. Tampa and then Wednesday’s game in Tampa was postponed.

Don’t post that on the main board. I’m done trying to convince the majority of this board to invest their fandom in the Canes.

    • First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
    • Haha I was still off was thinking of mac jones he has done extremely well this year with basically no weopons as all the 49ers are hurt except for mcaffrey but he is playing slow this year for some reason.
