Big game tonight. The top team in the league playing at (one of) the hottest team in the league right now. Carolina clawing their way towards a playoff push looking to extend an impressive home streak. Staal Wars... Marc vs Eric, first time they've been on the ice together since Eric gave him the concussion...

...and Fox Sports Carolinas is showing the Women's ACC Tournament. SMDH!:mad:

Have to have NHL Pass or find less than legal ways to watch. (PM me)

Good scoreless 1st period by both teams; shots, blocks and hits are all pretty even, both teams are playing good defense and both are 0-1 on the PP.

Eric Staal had a great second chance shot that clanked off the post right before the horn.

We start the 2nd with right at 1 minute left on our first Power Play.

fug!

They tie it up on a sick shot through McBain's legs.

Then a defensive breakdown leads to a flurry of shots on Cam, but we survive...

Then Skinner tries to Board Marc Staal and gets a penalty...

Then gets his ass beat by half the Ranger's lineup and is the only one who goes off the ice.

WTF???

I have a feeling this game is going to be decided in the next [e]11[/e] minutes.

Whoever said luck doesn't play a part in sports needs to watch this game over and over. We lose because of the most BS goal ever and BARELY missing on some goals. We're close boys. We're damn close. I know we all get tired of hearing it, but we're not far from being a scary contender in the Eastern Conference.

      Jalen Ramsey

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.

      For the Panthers fans still low on Bryce and demanding that he be a top-10 QB this upcoming season: What stat(s) will you need to see? Not the vibe you want, but rather what does he need to be top-10 in specifically? Passing yards? Completion percentage? Win-loss record? PFF grades? EPA? CPOE? Asking because this was asked before and... well... it ended up that the folks down on him didn't care about the numbers as much as they cared that they just couldn't get passed his size regardless of how he performed. It would be nice to get a straight-forward answer to that without the usual deflection and redirecting.
