Team effin USA

Agreed on Umberger.

Sweden in the first prelim. Think we can actually win that one. Then Norway and Canada. Two that we COULD drop. I'm thinking we have a REAL shot at bronze if we can get by one of those two. Gold is asking a lot though. Least we don't have Finland in our grouping.

He's had a bad January, but I think he's done well as a winger. Gets around the net. Pretty physical guy (from what i've seen of him anyway). I like Umberger. Gleason hasn't had a much better year than RJ though. Definitely been a good year for him, but compared to the other defensemen on the roster, he's a step behind. Really, the Hurricanes as a whole are a step behind it seems like. :( Ready to see us play good hockey again. Such a depressing season.

this.

jackets have been playing TERRIBLE lately and me calling them terrible is being generous. rj has 15 goals and 15 assists so far this year so i wouldn't really say he's having a bad year

Let it also be known that the only reason Tim Thomas made the team was for sympathy points, because Miller will start every game. At least thats how its planned atm.

Gleason has taken huge steps to become a real defensive force for us. He has no offensive presence, but he can shut some folks down really well.

Honestly, USA could probably use a guy like Umberger because we are team Oompa Loompa up front.

    • fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally
    • Amazing what the prospect of being traded to Carolina will do for contract negotiations. 
    • 5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
