GDT: Canes at Cats 7pm - Kick off 2025 Right

[A Star is Burns]

HFB servers can't handle the Canes beating the Cats

My servers can't either.

 

[WreckingCrew]

Also Canada might actively be getting screwed on home ice. McKenna just got elbowed in the back of the head with no call. These refs better have some security on the way out

Nvm Nadeau just scored

As much bullshit and bias as they've gotten over the years, meh, hard to feel too bad

 

[cptjeff]

The goals were ugly. But the boys played a great game tonight. Let’s build on that one

We had lots of pretty chances that are goals on most nights, but Bob stopped 'em. We got a few ugly ones through, whatever. That's hockey.

 

[cptjeff]

f*** the doom and gloom. They'll go out, bust their asses, and get a big statement win to start 2025.

Mission accomplished.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

That's a win to build on. Now please actually do that

 

[Chrispy]

Panthers TV crew is worse than FLA fans on what happened with Tkachuk there.

 

[hblueridgegal]

gotta love it

 

[Borsig]

no main board thread.

Bob did quit on that goal. I wonder if PK would have been trying to fight in the same situation. Kind of shit to quit after the night he had. He relied on the refs protecting him

Oh, and it was mentioned a bunch in the broadcast, but KK had a great game as well. Some key blocked shots, he was physical all night, and obviously a key part of the GWG

The various unhinged nuts the Panthers have put on TV for their entire history are *why* the fanbase can get so bad. Propaganda works.

I'll be honest, I don't see how he gets one. The last three players to touch it were Martinook, Burns, then Slavin.

I would think PK would have slashed someone there...

After the Columbus game would he slash the Panther or the Cane? 50/50 either way.

No touch my guys, only I touch my guys.

 

[Joe McGrath]

I think the first shot that came in hit him. It hit one of him or captain dum dum.

He may have just played dead in the crease forcing a whistle. Who knows.

The team started falling apart after the two losses to this Panthers team. Hopefully yes, this (road I should add) win gets things going again.

Kotchekov had a great game tonight. Props to him.

It looks like it's a primary assist, so that's probably it

 

[MrazeksVengeance]

HEH.

I literally just laugh at them at this point -- I don't there is a more a delusional TV crew in hockey.

I was watching another game like a week ago and they were complaining about some obvious penalty. Having listened to these idiots for like decades at this point, all you can do is laugh.

Although Boston TV crew might say hold my beer? lol

Our last 3 game win streak was...

Nov 20...would be great to get another!

He got credit to taking out the goalie....

btw: last night's first period was the best I've seen the Canes play in years. If they play like that, that's a true SC contender. They were really physical (hit more with authority than I've seen in years) and created some great chances.....a normal, non-Bob goalie and Canes are up 4-0.

Cats have a pretty passive fan base in attendance except for the loud guys yelling "hit him" all game. Usually I'm quiet on a road game but around the 2nd period I just couldn't help myself and yelled woohoo after a good Canes hit (haha, my wife nudged me and said we are not home and I'm not 25 anymore).

Everything about the arena is top shelf except for in-game stuff. It's lame, their "Jumbotron" is a "minitron" and they barely show highlights. Canes in-game stuff and replays are top shelf. Hopefully when the construction is finished, Lenovo will be as good with non in-game stuff with wider concourses, etc.

So, he's a homebody!

He did say that one of their motivators was not losing to a team 3X in a season as well.

His English is getting so much better!

Isn't the Panthers tv crew new-ish? I just remember Denis Potvin in 2007 whining about diving among other things, but he's not there anymore is he?

“Goldy” has been there for quite some time. Moeller for a decade although not always in primary/Tripp like role.
