Game Recap

The Carolina Hurricanes (10-8-1) put together their best game of the season so far as they clubbed the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-1. The game was not even close as the Canes outworked the Penguins in all facets of the game. Tonight, the big four added one more to the group as Jiri Tlusty joins Eric Staal, Jordan Staal, Alexander Semin, and Jeff Skinner as a core part of this team. Tlusty potted two goals and Eric Staal and Skinner added the others. With a healthy team, the Hurricanes are easily a top five team in the NHL's Eastern Conference, so here's to staying healthy and racking up some more wins in the process.

    • I feel like anyone within the Panthers fanbase no matter where they land on Bryce should agree on this. He's a good kid. He's intelligent. But ultimately is he going to ever be the guy to command a locker room? Obviously none of us can say. But I just don't get any alpha vibes from him whatsoever. Is that a dealbreaker? Not necessarily. Here's the thing though. We had the talk of his generational years ahead of his age leadership trait clubbed over our heads for weeks nonstop before the draft. But after seeing someone like Sam Darnold navigate life as a starting QB I think anyone here should be able to acknowledge homerism there are some similarities to Darnold in terms of personality. That is not what we were sold. All of this takes me back to before the draft. I just can't shake the sense that Stroud just rubbed Tepper or someone the wrong way. Was he too confident? Not subservient enough? Did they feel Bryce was more marketable and media savvy? My gut says these things weighed more into the pick than they should have. If not. Stroud more than likely would have been the selection. What's done is done though. I'm just like you though. I want to see some fire from Bryce at some point this season. But I'm expecting to be disappointed considering his first order of business following one of the worst rookie seasons ever was to detach completely and do nothing. As always. Hoping for the best. I feel like I have to put a disclaimer at the end of this post for the Bryce superfans. I want to see him do well. I don't want this to end in the worst case scenario. There now we can be friends!
    • I felt the Cam vibes on the huddle with Bryce, in fact its almost there. Threads that have no mention of young, turn in them.  Only deal is Cam had tons more supporters/nut huggers.  I honestly hated talking Cam with 90% of the huddle, in many eyes he was perfectly accurate with all his throws and if he had a legit great game the true haters were missing in action.   Cam board is now a Bryce board...
    • LETS GO CANES I THINK ALL OF US HERE KNOW NOT TO DOUBT THEM....   I BELIEVE 100% WE WIN UNTIL THE FINAL BELL 🔔
