The Hurricanes are back at home after that rough road trip as they take on Florida tonight. The Canes regained first (due to games in hand) last night in a shootout loss to New York and will look to get back on track tonight and retake sole possession of first in the Southeast division with a win over Florida and a Jets loss against Boston.

The Canes will roll with the following lineup...

Tlusty - E. Staal - Semin

Skinner - J. Staal - Dwyer

Bowman - Nash - Jokinen

Westgarth - Brent - Hall

Harrison - Faulk

Gleason - Sanguinetti

Pitkanen - McBain

Ellis

Peters

Inactive: Tim Wallace

Injured: Tuomo Ruutu (hip), Chad LaRose (concussion), Joe Corvo (lower body), Cam Ward (knee)

As far as things for the Panthers go, George Parros the "tough guy" is day-to-day, where as Jose Theodore, Michael Caruso, Ed Jovanovski, Mike Weaver, Dmitry Kulikov, Stephen Weiss, and Kris Versteeg are all out.

Go Canes!!!

      NBC Sports 2026 NFL GM rankings

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      All these rankings have more to do with the writers love or hate for a team.  Morgan, IMO, has done a really good job at building this team.  Yeah, there are a couple of whiffs but for the most part he has done quite well drafting and signing free agents.  22 is a bit low but it's a stupid opinion based on how little a writer knows about the Panthers.

      Maybe? Maybe....?

      When I saw that I was thinking the same thing.  If Evero does have a great season and gets hired as a head coach I wouldn't mind see McD as our DC.  If we do poorly as a team, I definitely would want him to be the front runner for HC.

      Joe Person: Panthers are NOT expected to extend Bryce Young before the 2026 season

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      But it's not about not upsetting a player under contract, it's about not causing a rift in the locker room. The players love Bryce, whether as a person or a player doesn't matter.  You can't spend a Top 10 pick on a QB and then still start your #1 overall pick in the last year of their contract. That act alone will cause a massive locker room rift/distraction that would be unavoidable.  Some players will question why you "wasted" a Top 10 pick on a QB you're not going to start instead of someone who can help right away.  While others will question why we are keeping Bryce around for the season when it's clear he's not the future guy at that point. It would just make for a bad start to the rookie's career while causing locker room distractions.  Again, I'd bet this has never happened in this league before with any 1st round QB, let alone the #1 overall pick, and there is a reason for it, which is that it would be epically stupid to do. And I used the Vikings as the example as they're the closest I can think of, because again, there isn't a direct comparison as nobody has ever done it because it's that dumb of an idea (no offense lol).
