Canes #2 in the East again. It would be amusing to read/hear the 1v8 crowd try to complain about the playoff format by arguing for the #3 seed to have an easier playoff matchup on the basis of an arbitrary grouping.

The NHL's expansion into the south and its consequences have been a disaster for the hockey fan race. What was once a game built on tradition, sportsmanship and competition has now evolved into a circus act where organizations appeal to the lowest common denominator in the form of childish choreography, twitter wars, and roster moves worth millions of dollars that serve no purpose than to grab headlines.
Hockey is not made for the south, it's a game deeply rooted in northern culture where kids can spend the winter out in the wilderness slapping pucks around before tuning into Hockey Night in Canada and watching the Toronto Maple Leafs get fisted raw. What we have in the south is nothing short of a disgrace. Bible belt boomers whose only contact with the cold is the air conditioning of their mobility scooters have gripped our sport with an iron fist, uprooting our traditions and replacing them with free burgers when a player touches the puck and raising banners for going a week without someone in the crowd having a heart attack because of their diets consisting of honey butter biscuits and sweet tea.
The day hockey dies in the south is the day I gain my soul back.

Are we still making the playoffs? Coulda sworn this team wasn’t going to a couple of months back

I suspect a few morons thought that, but most of us didn’t.

The quilty conscience speaks up first

Isles beat Rags

We prob still don’t catch the Rags but one step closer to Isles being round 1 opponent which is ideal for me

Nah, you can do a search and easily see that I wasn’t panicking back in November.

So you are too lazy to do a search. Got it.

 

[3CanesInTheBox]

Looks like I DID miss some fun. Imma catch these goal highlights and praise the High Hockey Gods for forcing either the Rangers or Boston to have a first round date with Tampa.

All Hail the High Hockey Gods!

I just said make a f***ing trade, and we got Kuz and Guentzel, so I think I was right.

Here’s my comments to the doom and gloomers since @Nikishin Go Boom was making accusations while being too lazy to look it up.

That’s completely your prerogative to be worried. I’m not.

Many on this board overreact to early season struggles. Just look at the GDT last November after the team had 2 wins in 10 games, and had just lost to AZ.

Canes have some things to fix, no doubt and need to get healthy. It may take longer than a few games, like it did last year, but I’m confident they’ll make the playoffs. As we saw with FLA last year and STL in 2018, I’d rather have the Canes peak in April/May/June than in oct/Nov.

You may end up being right, but you were convinced in November of last year that this wasn't a playoff team as well when they were playing poorly. Maybe they won't turn it around, but I'm willing to ride it out for a while.

Thinking i was making an accusation about you is so off base that i just kept rolling with it. I was pretty sure the eyebrow emoji would give away the joking tone. Oh well

One thing I’ve learned over the years is that you rarely have “joking” in your arsenal. If you played that card now, kudos to you and I accept that I was fooled and apologize for taking it seriously.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Isles beat Rags

Catch the ending of that Rangers game:



I have no clue how that doesn’t get called.

Im not good at it so i try to throw in an emoji to help sell it. It doesn’t work sometimes

Had Svech.

I wanna Svech you up.

Let's talk about Svech

I smell Svech and Candy

Birthday Svech

No worries. I misread it so we’re good.

Meh.

We've had our guys cross checked, boarded, and sat on and refs don't bat an eye.

If one of our guys did that they'd be ejected for screaming at the ref. Just like Tros pims took a massive drop after changing markets.

Precisely why I would prefer the Canes avoid NYI in the first round.

They play to injure, and I think one of the keys to making a deep run is at a minimum surviving the first round somewhat injury free.

 

[Svechhammer]

Leave it up to the Rags to try and drum up drama where they were the ones doing literally all of it

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

It's interesting to see how Guentzel's perceived value around the league has sky-rocketed after the trade. I think that many people were on that viewpoint that "He's just a product of Crosby!" and seeing Guentzel get even better with a different team changed his reputation.
