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.

      Underdog 2nd year QB preview

      By Mage · Posted

      I literally said in my other post that we still deserve criticism, so what are you talking about? Mods, feel free to put me in my place if I'm going too far.  But it needs to be said. Some of you need to start reading posts in full instead of making it about Bryce every single damn time.  Ultimately my point was that drafting QBs is hard, and if it wasn't the Panthers mistake, it would have been another teams.  Just like Trey Lance, just like Mac Jones, just like Blake Bortles, just like Blaine Gabbert,... I can go on and on.   Yes, Panthers screwed up (assuming Bryce doesn't improve).  Yes, we should be criticized.  But it happens.   But I'm not about to sit and discuss this with someone who thinks Levis even had .001% chance of going ahead of Bryce.

      I like how everyone is so fixated over this one thing as opposed to my overall point, which is that drafting QBs is hard. You really think if Stroud went No. 1, the Texans weren't going to take Bryce?  And if the Texans took Richardson, the Colts wouldn't have taken Young or traded it to someone who would?  Some of ya'll really be acting ridiculous.  Bryce is far from the first QB bust to go in the top 3.

      Bruh, just stop.  Levis was not going over Bryce lol.  "Doubtful" come on now.   No disrespect but that is just a foolish take even with you acknowledging how doubtful it was.  Levis didn't even go in the 1st.  Seriously, what are we doing here?
