This one has the recipe for a let down game. I dont believe Paul Maurice would let that happen, but it sure does have that familiar look. A team thats playing for nothing vs a team thats trying to get home ice advantage. Cam Ward is in goal tonight I hope if we get a few goals up they pull him and give Leighton at least a period behind net. Heres to us winning ang Phili losing. Go Canes!

Hockey isn't like football man. If we go up, Cam is staying in no matter what. He is riding an incredible hot streak right now and you don't do ANYTHING to disrupt that momentum. He isn't gonna get tired down the stretch, trust me. This kind of situation is what goalies train their entire lives for. Besides that, Brodeur is his idol and he averages 75 games a year. I have no doubt Cam will be ok even if he doesn't get a rest from here on out. GO CANES!!!

I've never been a huge Cam Ward supporter, but he is now showing signs of what I've always known he COULD be...a solid everyday goalie. In the past, he's only been able to play well when there is something on the line. Now, he's playing well on a nightly basis, and he doesn't seem to be letting up.

If you can get the "important game" effort out of Cam Ward on a nightly basis, he is a scary matchup for opponents.

3-0 now, at the end on the first :) This is the kind of Canes team that I likes. One that plays well and beats the poo out of an opponent when they are supposed to. You're supposed to be playing like this against the worst team in the NHL...and it's a refreshing change from the past few seasons to see it happening.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
