Is this the best timed ‘bye’ we’ve ever had

Its good we getting people healthy for a run and it came at an opportune time. But we generally come out flat with an underwhelming performance after a bye...Maybe Canales can break that stigma.

After the way NO killed the good vibe early this season you would hope the Panthers come out fired up and focused this time

A quick recap:

November 30 at 1pm our situation was:

  • The Bucs are a full game ahead of us, PLUS holding the current tiebreaker, PLUS having the easiest remaining schedule imaginable.
  • We've just had a humiliating defeat, lost our winning record, and are walking into a "guaranteed loss" against the NFL's best team.

After stepping through the bye week looking glass, we get to walk into our next game knowing:

  • A win will mean that, even in the worst case scenarios, we are assured of still being in the playoff race through the last game of the season.
  • We're tied with the bucs... No, wait! We're a game ahead of the bucs... No, wait! We're a game ahead PLUS holding the current tiebreaker.

Yeah, I'll take a bye like that anytime.

    • Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.
    • I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.
    • Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
