Now THAT is a good win. Much needed considering where we are in the Southeast division. Staal went off, which is good to see. All-time points leader for the Canes now. According to Paul Maurice, Staal hasn't even reached full potential (which most of us new, but its good to hear considering how humble Staal is in post-game interviews). If we can get more wins like this one, we can make a serious run for this division. The Caps are good, but I don't think they have the speed to match up on all their lines with ours. And as long as Mo doesn't give Cam a break on ANY Caps games, we stand a great chance (assuming our d-men don't play like ass).

Any other thoughts?

Special Teams was huge this game. 3 for 4 on the power play! I mean damn! I still was miffed a bit on one or two easy ones cam give up. As long as we can continue to score I think we will be ok. Defense is looking alot better. I hope this means pitkanen doesnt have to play 25 mins a night. I think McBain is really hitting his stride. Great time to be a canes fan!

If we keep this up we could even compete for the southeast division. We are hitting our stride at the right time, while atlanta is spiraling down the drain. I cannot say enough about this team and its young players developing at such a fast rate. McBain has been playing so much better with the addition of White (except for that break away jamie gave up last night.) The future looks bright! not to mention this season:D

Love the way this team is playing right now. Could use a little more on defense, but our offense can score with anyone right now. That's great to see.

One thing that has me a little worried as that Paul Maurice teams have a history of being streaky. At times they play amazing, then they break down and look terrible for a while. Hopefully this team won't be that way.

      Bryce Slinging Dots Downfield

      By CPF4LIFE · Posted

      Those TDs passes you saw Sunday is what I think you will see bryce at his best. Those touch passes he can lob to receivers over the defenders heads. Long as receivers can get significant separation and bryce does overthrow those passes which we seem him do a lot. He is never gonna be a guy that can throw a laser into a receivers chest with a defender draped on him downfield unless its short pass or within a couple feet from the endzone.

      Dream scenario for ending out the season

      By strato · Posted

      If teams play us honestly and take that deep stuff away we may be able to operate good enough underneath to counter that. It is about time we started trying to force them to respect it.    But I think people should enjoy the win for two weeks because what’s in front of us doesn’t scream playoffs to me. It would be shocking if we swept TB. They aren’t Atlanta.  And even if we sweep there can be no let down.    I saw the stat of our record coming off a loss. Pretty good. What would it be coming off a win lol? Without looking, it has to at least be pretty upside down  (I count it to be 2-4).

      Win the division from Bucs........BY implodes in the playoff worse than Delhomme and we finally get rid of BY as our QB. Get ready for 2026 with momentum for once.
