GDT: ENEMIES OF JERKDOM IN RALEIGH STILL HAVEN'T LEFT

[AD Skinner]

What I wouldn't give for a good old time "hey hey what do you say?"

*sniff*

You could almost feel that he had one brewing and decided not to. Man I miss him being part of the canes

 

[robbieberns]

Just realized Forslund has been gone long enough to have never called a Jarvis game as part of the Hurricanes broadcast team, that’s crazy.

 

[NotOpie]

Not sure why we're talking offer sheet when we have the resources for a good ole fashion trade. OS seems like a waste.

An offer sheet is just a forced trade at the end of the day.

or a check kaiton shoooooooootttttinnng

"chest save by Muzzatti". Kaiton was a gem (but is an as*hole)

edit: just realized Muzzatti played for the Whalers almost 30 years ago. Time flies.

I'm just going to put this out there....

I am loving how many people across HFB and hockey are so adamant that the Canes just aren't very good this year. Look at that thread about who is coming back from down 1-3 and its littered with people thinking its only a matter of time before the Caps do because the Canes aren't good.

Reminding me a lot of 2006. If this means we just become another one of the worst teams to ever win the Cup, f*** em, I'll take it. I'd rather win with our boring low talent tam than excitedly lose with theirs.

 

[The Faulker 27]

Personally, none of the banter about the Hurricanes phases me but It does seem amplified this year. I mean if it’s goals they want Canes aren’t exactly slouching.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

We’re 9 months removed from this entire board freaking out about how we’re not that good this year and we’ll miss the playoffs, and we’re like 3 months removed from this entire board saying the same thing. It’s fine. We’re not that good, in the sense that we’re probably underdogs to either team on the other side.

The good news is, aside from maybe Dallas, I don’t see any unbeatable juggernauts the rest of the way. So maybe this is the year that a team that’s “not that good” wins the Cup. I’d take it.

Need to decide who is going to give us the sacrificial eyeball and get Fast back on the ice for the finals

I'm thinking of players on bad teams where the team won't trade them.

Peterka could think Buffalo isn't close to competing and wants to leave but Buffalo has no reason to trade him.

Enter the offer sheet.

Known Chuck for years. Great guy!

I mean, I'm not counting out the Caps. If they win the next game, and that's certainly a possibility, it could be enough to spring them to a couple wins in a row.

At this point, I'd take not getting swept in the Conference Finals. Get to the Cup Finals and I'm gravy.

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

I don't particularly care about the betting odds as long as the media keeps treating us like the underdogs and the Canes keep playing like they're the underdogs (in the positive sense).

Don't know about the rest of y'all, but I've been a resident of the Gravy Territory for a week. Everything's been icing on the cake since we thumped the Devils.

But agreed, if we do make it to the ECF, I will add a requirement of winning one game.

The intrigue!!

 

[chaz4hockey]

my favorite show as a kid.....was bummed when they cancelled the show

 

[Nikishin al Gaib]

On his birthday, too!

 

[htdoc]

I get that they are saying he is good to go and will play... but given what he looked like last game for almost the whole game, it seems unlikely he would magically be all ready to go...

Not to get all tin foil hat about it, but wouldn't at all be surprised for Nikishin to take warmups and be an emergency replacement because Chatty just can't go tonight. Then Caps didn't get any prep time to game plan for his first game..

If Chatty does go will be watching closely.. it can go sideways in a hurry if he isnt able to do the things that he needs to do to be successful, especially paired with Orlov.

 

[Discipline Daddy]

On his birthday, too!

So cute. I posted on here a couple months ago I met Chat with his boy walking in the park. Incidentally it was like 2 days before the "wrestling move" against McMichael.

The good news here is Chatfield's injury can't be too serious if he's playing tonight. I know we all want Nikishin in, but how can we see it as anything but good news if our 2nd pairing RD is available.

 

[CanesFanBudMan]

The Canes have no reason to publicly say chatty can’t go until they have to submit the lineup.
