Epic game last night. It took about 5 minutes to realize just how physical this one was going to be.

The 4-minute PK was unbelievable, and the roof went off PNC when Staal came out of the box. Only to be followed by a standing O for Kochetkov making one huge save after another.

Aho's goal with 18.9 after the Panthers goal was wiped off the board for offside? Loudest I've been in PNC since the playoffs of 2019.

A huge, playoff-style win and a regular season game that will be hard to beat. I was on the edge of my seat almost the entire game. My ears were still ringing when I got home..... and my drive is almost an hour.

------------------------

Now the bad.... when will leagues in any sport start holding officials accountable for being incompetent, blind or both? For the Canes to have played that game last night and gotten one PP out of the deal is ridiculous. Holding sticks, interference, high sticks... the officials just plainly did not make the calls when they occurred. Martinook got hit with a high stick twice in he 3rd, the second being intentional, Turbo had his head pushed into the ice which sent him to the bench for a couple missed shifts.

They called it like a playoff game. If Staal didn’t draw blood I don’t think they would have called that. That said I agree on Martinook and Turbo. Turbo was major safety. His head bounced twice. They should have called the second one that hit Martinook for consistency.

This was a last minute decision for me to get a ticket on gameday, but man am I ever glad that I did. The building was incredible and when Aho scored it felt like everyone could finally exhale. Easily the best regular season game that I've been to and I was blessed enough to go the game vs. Arizona where we scored twice in the last 30 seconds to win the game. These close games are not good for my heart but they are fantastic for my soul.

TDA has been very good since Chatfield went down. He has no points but is a +3.

I’m hopeful that the Canes hang on to him because he could be a great depth piece in the playoffs.

 

I know one of the papers did a peace where he wants to play to continue his career… but this season we need that 7th D. Just in case.

There’s not a whole lot of guys I’m really interested in this trade deadline. I don’t see a game changer out there so I’d just look for a depth piece.

Personally, I’d look at adding Anthony Duclair.

He can probably be had for a pick and with some cap gymnastics the Canes should be able to fit him in.

But I don’t think I’d move anyone from the active roster. Throw Raanta on LTIR and be done with it.

Honestly ... was thinking Bunt would square up with Chuk ... but glad Svech showed there is more than one that can take care of business.  I go back to when Svech got into it with Ovechkin.  The kid has an edge that is good for this team.

Bunting is a pest not power forward or enforcer....

 

Svechnikov has punt on a lot of muscle since then (weights probably 40 pounds more now) not surprising he took out the Thatchuk (anther Power Forward)

Yes. Playing smarter and more responsibly. 

I thought for sure he had the 1st goal the other night when he came right down Broadway unchecked with speed and rang the post.

For some reason I thought he was a couple years older than he is.

      Tony Pauline: word inside league circles @oregonfootball S Dillon Thieneman could end up with the #Vikings at 18 or the #Panthers at 19

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      That may be true but not having a competent and talented safety is what let Stafford cook us down the field in almost less than 1 minute and bouncing us out the playoffs.  Scott is a liability in each level of the game IMO and a versatile player at that position can completely change the look of a defense just as much as a pass rusher. Knocked down passes big moments, turnovers, TFL, QB pressures on blitzes, etcetera.   I'm  not saying you don't want us to draft a safety, but most of us should agree that WE NEEEED a lights out safety on this team finally.  If DM moves up a spot before Vikings and not give up much to snag him for us I won't be mad in slightest. This kid is a DAWG and I believe he could possibly be a staple on this defense the likes of the guys we still sing praises for Peppers, Kuechly, Davis, Rucker, Beason, Morgan, Gamble..............Thieneman?

      Benjamin Solak on Panthers draft needs

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Picks: Nos. 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 I'm extremely excited for the Panthers' 2026 draft. How could you not be? After two straight offseasons of aggressive defensive spending, coordinator Ejiro Evero's unit looks ready to make the leap. Jaelan Phillips and Devin Lloydfill out two of the biggest gaps on the roster, though the Panthers should not be discounted from drafting a top edge rusher early. Phillips is a major injury risk and not a sack artist, so he doesn't fully solve the Panthers' 5.3% sack rate from last season (27th in the league). The Panthers might be the Akheem Mesidor(Miami) team, as they need his production immediately. The Panthers are also often tagged as the Kenyon Sadiq team, which is very possible. No one among Tommy Tremble, Ja'Tavion Sanders and Mitchell Evans has played his way into an unquestioned starting role. But the Panthers do have three tight ends on the roster, two of whom are on rookie contracts. Sadiq would fit nicely in Dave Canales' offense, which has a dynamic screen game and schemes up targets well. But I'd like to see an accompanying move to make room at the position for Sadiq's snaps to love the pick. There's much more room at wide receiver, where a second three-level option to run besides Offensive Rookie of the Year Tetairoa McMillan could really bust open this offense. I could see an early pick spent in the secondary, which might come as a surprise to some. Slot corner Chau Smith-Wade has been fine but could be improved upon if an elite nickel option is available at No. 51 (think D'Angelo Ponds from Indiana or Keionte Scottfrom Miami). Depth behind the outside corners is also quite thin, and Mike Jackson (29 years old) is in a contract year, so a player with inside-out versatility would have even more value. Clemson's Avieon Terrell, anyone? The Panthers can also buttress the slot by drafting a safety with good man coverage traits to play opposite Tre'von Moehrig, as neither Lathan Ransom nor Nick Scott has emphatically secured that role. Treydan Stukes(Arizona) is another option who would make a lot of sense at No. 51. Bottom line: Wide receiver, pass rusher and defensive back are the big needs. Attack them aggressively -- this is the end of Bryce Young's rookie contract, so it's time to push
