Hockey is the only thing that’s got me through the last five years.

The Panthers, Hornets, Heels (football) and at times Heels (basketball) have all fugged me.

And we are not far removed from the Canes being right there with them, it got really bad, we were sort like the Panthers are now, aging washed up vets and a no man's land for decent Free Agents , but we got sold, to a serios ownerand started building through the draft, and got lucky with  generational talent like Aho,and Scechnekov , now we are a perennial playoff team , and in the Cup conversion every year

I wish Mike Dundon would buy the Panthers off of tepper, then things might change

I hate to say it but tonight changed Josh Downs' legacy and not for the better. 😞

1 play but you have to catch that.  The defense giving up a 3rd and 9 on a straight run was more maddening to me.  That was going to be the downfall for this team.

For 12 straight years I dreaded hockey season.

Plenty of maddening plays in that game. But at the end of the day it's been very clear this team was going to go as far as the offense could carry them. The D giving up a 3rd and long was predictable. Josh Downs dropping a gimmie TD on 4th and 11 wasn't. That hurt.

Hang in there man…this has been a tough year of brutal loses for our home teams

9-2 ain’t bad all things considered

If you'd told me at the beginning of the season we'd be 9-2 I'd be thrilled. That still doesn't make snatching defeat from the jaws of victory against a 4-6 GT team anymore palatable. Especially for what that means lying ahead in the ACC CG. Prepare to see the highest level of bullshit call/no calls you've seen since SB50.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
