You don’t pull Freddie…. The guy has been the best goalie in the league lately. 

He’s also been on a strict schedule and workload target since he returned. I agree with starting him tonight but I’d give Pyotr both NY games if that’s the case. If we want the cup it’s a long road ahead, no need to overwork Freddie. 
 

Caveat: unless Pyotr has a stinker.

Pretty sure his work load was because Rod wanted to ride him in the playoffs his post-game Saturday said as much

Canes got caught below the goal line too many times last game. Too many opportunities for the Isles having a guy on the doorstep and Freddie having to make a huge save. NY wants to muck it up below the goal line and try to draw a d-man too deep or get just one more guy to bite down low and open up the crease. 

Canes try to play more offense down low and net front, it'll pull the Isles closer to the net and Carolina can get some easy entries. Otherwise, the Isles just clog up the middle like the Rags do and it works against the Canes.

Ya we gotta clean up our puck control behind our own net. It was bad last game. Isles are selling out to beat us at it.

I agreed don't chase below the goal line as much, being 2 feet from the ice behind the Freddie for two periods made this pretty clear, we also have a MASSIVE SPEED advantage

      Looking like it might be game 7 for Pitt and Phi. Philly is spent. I like more rest for the canes

      Moton Meets the Press

      Moton is the man through and through. 2 things I'll always give Gettleman credit for, 1 is drafting Moton, the other is building a SB contending roster and blowing it up in one off-season

      Kurb is still alive and well.  I’m still friends with him on all of the social media.  He truly is a great man!  That’s my bro!  He always looked out for me since the early days of the huddle.  It definitely makes me sad that he just quit posting here, but that’s life.  He still shares his takes on social media and X, but a lot of the huddle vets just grew tired of this format and the environment, I guess?  It’s a lot of guys that were valuable contributors here that just stopped posting but are still alive and passionate Panthers fans.  Blindsite used to post huge write-ups and was a well-respected poster and then just disappeared.  We had one of these type threads several years ago and he checked back in and explained he just lost the motivation to stay active here.  It was amazing hearing from him again…   I signed up in 04 after coming over from the Charlotte.com boards and been here ever since.  (For those that don’t know - this is Proudiddy - had to change the name very recently due to ‘ol tootsie roll penis and the bad press 😂).  I’m forever thankful for all of you, even those who I haven’t had the greatest history with, I still appreciate yall.  Many have come and gone, both figuratively and literally, and that has put a lot into perspective over the years.  I went from a young, newly married, wide-eyed twenty year-old guy with a baby on the way, to a now forty-two year-old guy, recently divorced and newly re-married guy with my oldest baby now an adult and 5 more kids since.  And what ride it has been!  You guys have been a much bigger part of my life than I really care to acknowledge.😂
