Ottawa rolled Tampa Bay last night 7-4. Last week it took OT to beat them in our house.

Do I honestly think the Canes can beat a team desperately trying to make the playoffs and the next night beat a Detroit team the Canes struggle mightily with? 

No. I have zero reson to believe the Canes, in control of their own destiny, can close the season on a high note.

Ottawa is out of the playoffs they cannot get higher than an 87. Minimum for a wild card is 91 in the East. That said this is their last home game. 
 

Detroit is our last regular season home game, so I expect a better performance. 
 

We could very well have complete control over who the first team in the metro plays Vs. the panthers as well, for our last game, which makes things interesting for the NHL.

In other news, I watched the Frozen Four Championship last night. RBA was in attendance as Quinnipiac tied the game at 2-2 with an extra attacker inside 2 minutes. Quinnipiac then went on to win in OT.

Talk about some physical hockey. There was not an opportunity to hit someone that was passed up by either team.

Congrats to the RBA family.

Damn he must have busted his butt trying to get down there after the game. I’m guessing Dundon flew him down.

    • Rashid Shaheed Born: Aug 31, 1998 (27 years) Height and weight: Height 6′ 0″, Weight 180 lbs Current team: Seattle Seahawks (#22 / Wide receiver/kick returner) Rashid Shaheed signed a one-year, $5.2 million extension with the Saints in July 2024, keeping him under contract through the 2025 season with a $1M signing bonus and $4.2M base salary in 2025, before being traded to the Seahawks at the 2025 deadline, making him an Unrestricted Free Agent in 2026.   His initial deal was a 2-year, $6.185M contract with $1M guaranteed through 2025.    Rashid Shaheed's scouting report highlights him as an electrifying, big-play deep threat receiver known for elite efficiency on deep routes, explosive plays, and reliable hands (zero drops over multiple seasons), though he's undersized (around 180 lbs) and needs to improve blocking and route running consistency to shed his "situational/boom-or-bust" label and become a full-time WR1/WR2.     Strengths: Elite Deep Threat: Ranks among the league's best in air yards per target and yards per reception, consistently producing 30+ yard catches and touchdowns. Playmaker: "A playmaker" who excels at making plays downfield and adding a vertical dimension to offenses. Reliable Hands: Showcased impressive ball skills with zero drops over recent seasons, even making contested catches. Efficiency: Finishes high in metrics like yards per route run, demonstrating effective production when targeted. Undrafted Gem: A significant value find for the Saints, proving overlooked prospects can excel.      Areas for Improvement: Size/Blocking: At around 180 lbs, he's smaller and less effective as a blocker, which limited his snaps in New Orleans compared to bigger receivers. Route Running: Needs to develop cleaner routes and better consistency in intermediate areas to earn more targets beyond deep shots. Consistency/Role: Often a "boom-or-bust" or situational player due to volume fluctuations, needing more consistent targets to reach WR1 status.      Role/Projection: Schematic Weapon: Stretches defenses, creating space for other players and opening up the run game, making offenses more efficient. Fantasy Profile: A high-upside FLEX or WR4, capable of winning weeks with big plays but dependent on volume and quarterback play. Future Outlook: His value hinges on earning a larger, more consistent role, potentially becoming a true WR2 with more opportunity and development in blocking/route running.   
    • A team that wants to win at any cost rolls with Young and Dalton for 3 years? 
    • Trubisky would be a top 5 backup QB with potential for long term replacement stretches if Bryce gets benched.  The issue will be price. Also a big fan of Allar late in the draft. THAT is the kind of injury gamble you take. Not in the 2nd but on a 5th-7th rounder that was formerly a top 2 round prospect.
