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.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      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.
