Yeah I’m just not okay with a point. We thoroughly outplayed the AVS all game. Raanta let in one softie. Goal one was on Stall and goal 3 in OT was tough with a 3 on 2 break. But giving up 3 goals on 14 shots doesn’t “look good” is true. The fact is 48 shots to 14 should net you more goals and going bolo on five, FIVE, pp chances is starting to get old and 100% a contributor to some of our losses. Thought the whole team played really well against a supposed elite team. It’s frustrating to not walk away with 2 points after a performance like that. 
 

p.s. fix the fuging power play Rod, or fire whoever is responsible for its poo performance.

Cans will be fine guys.  Relax. Other that NJ and Boston every big contender is up and down.   Don’t be the panthers forum. Our team is really good. Losing happens. 
 

relax and enjoy this team.  

Understand.

But, when you have the opportunity to play the defending Stanley Cup champs only twice on your schedule all season, and, in the first game, you underwhelm and look completely ill-prepared to face an excellent team; and in the second game you play exceptionally well, put 40 shots or so on goal and still come up short...

In my book, if you play poorly and lose- it's still a loss. If you play extremely well and lose- it's still a loss also. And it shows what you're capable of against a championship caliber team.

Those 2 games against the Avs were measuring sticks. They were a barometer of where this team is right now.

We are not playing as a cohesive team, on top of that some days we’re on and some we’re way off. I need to see some consistency that we saw the past few years. And I need to see us step up to the competition, unlike last year. We usually started like poo until the season after Covid under Rod anywho. But if we don’t start picking it up come January we’ll be fighting for a wildcard at this pace. Max could help a lot. But I really feel this team is a far cry from what we had the past two years.
 

Addendum: We put big money on Max so to speak and I feel like the rest of our roster is suffering because of it.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.

      Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise

      Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
