Done and pinned.

Hockey is one of those things I don't hate, I just never got into. My best friend growing up was a huge canes fan and we went to the celebration parade when we won the Stanley cup, but I primarily went because of a girl who was a big canes fan at the time.

It didn't work out so I stopped following the team for reasons unrelated to hockey. 

I also harbored some resentment that the icecaps got kicked out of town when the canes came to town. Ruined my birthday plans as a child since taking a group of friends to a game was no longer affordable.

But apparently we're a solid youngish team now? That's nice. 

Youngish team that is more than solid they are the Cup Favorites

Sounds good. Wish I knew more about hockey and the players and the teams history like I do with the Panthers. Helps put context to where the team currently is and who and what to look for.

Corp players 

Sebastion Aho-26 Point per game top line center

Andrei Svechnikov-23 top 10 winger 

Jacob Slavin 29- best defensive Dman in the NHL

What are the lines looking like to start the season? I was able to watch just a bit of preseason but haven't been able to focus as much on lines. I was pleasantly surprised with Bunting's performance in the preseason from what I did see. Without a bonafide sniper we really need to keep increasing the secondary scoring. Hoping Necas can keep up his momentum from last year, Turbo can get back to being Turbo, Jarvis and KK keep coming along, and we finally get to see Drury start to break out.

Bunting - Aho - Jarvy

TT - KK - Necas

Martinook - Staal - Fasty

Lemieux - Drury - Noesen

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

TDA - Orlov

Chatty

Andersen 

Raanta.

We will either play with the above 4 forward lines or Drudy - Noesen + 7 D with chatty.

I'm ambitious but I'd set the Hurricanes over under win total at 58

I get a little apprehensive every year when they have to start the season with a monstrous road trip because of the damn fair. But, they're used to it now, so I shouldn't get so worked up over it.

I'm setting the line at 53.

Recently we've come away from it with all but 3 points last season and all all but two the year before.

      Thin sliced roast beef, provolone, and roasted bell peppers on a toasted sub roll.  At least one thing is going right today. I don't trust anyone who's never put Bugles on their fingertips to make witch fingers.

      But yeh,  Bryce is the only problem on this sorry excuse of a team. You could put Tom Brady on this team and we would still suck . Worst part is Tepper and his various band of clowns have been trying to build a competitive team for 7 freaking years and are no closer now than when it all started.

      Bryce Young Is a Symptom, Not the Disease

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Regardless of the trade and where he was picked, Bryce actively created deception. He wore a hoodie to the combine and was 15 lbs heavier because he packed on water weight because he didnt weigh near 200 lbs. He didn't participate in drills in a wide open 4 way, really 3, QB bid. Then there was all this hype over the S2 test that he had been practicing that we've never heard about in the draft process since. Does anyone think it was an accident Stroud's score on the S2 was released? Stroud said forget the score, watch his tape. Wonder why. There was a whole bunch of shady poo going on surrounding Bryce pre draft, and I for one, find it all a little too convenient.  Just my opinion, but he was a used car salesman that used some armor all and a wash n wax and maybe a set of white walls then schmoozed his way at dinner with Dave and Nicole and sold them that he was a super savant.  There was a whole lot of BS swirling around the BY hype train and he was a full fledged participant. Frank didn't want Bryce, he wanted Stroud. A new head coach does not pick a QB he has to go design a brand new offense around unless that guy is a generationaltalent, which Bryce was most definitely not. He picks the guy that best fits what he does and that was Stroud. This was Dave and Nicole's pick and they fuged this team like they've done over and over again since they've been here. They fell for use car salesman Rhule, then used car salesman Bryce and company. And the fans got stuck with the 4 years of payments on a car less reliable than Al Bundy's Dodge.
