I won't say that his previous moves have been BS. But yeah, unless we're using these picks as a package for something else, I feel like we would have been better off with him on the team.

Unless Rod thought that he was too toxic, I really don't know.

haven’t been in the playoffs for 10 years

I’m fine with tearing it all down

8/2/2018 9:17:19 PM

definitely expected to get more but also i'm in agreement with ^

From what I know, it was a gamble based on the number of concussions/injuries he's had and the fact that no one would give us a 1st round pick. They also have a lot of faith in several players being brought up. I don't like the move at all but I am just hoping they know what they are doing.

The Buffalo News roasted Waddell/Dundon for the trade today, it was pretty sweet. Skinner even rubbed some salt in the wound by saying he's happy to be a "piece of the puzzle" here in Buffalo after Waddell said "But we have to look at the fact we haven’t made the playoffs in nine years. I’m not saying Jeff Skinner is the (reason). He was a part of the puzzle."

Most of the hot takes I heard today saying this was a good idea mention that Rod is looking for players who play all of the ice, go after the puck in the corners, play some defense etc and Skinner didn't fit that type of player

RAISE DA FUCK UP!

8/7/2018 1:33:24 PM

“Raise Up” is the best/easiest choice ever, and I feel like they’re gonna fuck it up

8/7/2018 1:34:42 PM

8/7/2018 1:50:40 PM

8/7/2018 2:08:03 PM

you don’t like “Raise Up”?

8/7/2018 2:45:18 PM

No, I can't stand that song.

[Edited on August 7, 2018 at 3:21 PM. Reason : I am not a fan of any of these choices TBH]

8/7/2018 3:21:06 PM

I feel like raise up won't make it because its too "north carolina" since don't we share all our teams with our sibling to the south?

8/7/2018 4:00:28 PM

^^ congrats on outing yourself as a lame

^ not the Hurricanes, just the Panthers

[Edited on August 7, 2018 at 4:25 PM. Reason : .]

8/7/2018 4:23:26 PM

Stuck between a douche bag and a turd sandwich. These choices are awful

8/7/2018 7:25:55 PM

yet another lame

8/7/2018 7:53:39 PM

I snap voted Raise Up, it's a no brainer. I see Petey around Raleigh regularly, which makes it an even better choice.

[Edited on August 8, 2018 at 8:13 AM. Reason : foo]

8/8/2018 8:13:01 AM

So if you're not a fan of Raise-Up you're un-cool? What if you're not a fan of Wagon Wheel either?

8/8/2018 9:43:37 AM

good one

I remember Colbert on Colbert Report congratulating the Hurricanes for finally making his state a champion, he's from South Carolina, but maybe that was part of a joke I didn't get, I assumed as much since the Panthers are.

8/8/2018 11:31:14 AM

yeah, that was the joke

and South Carolina does get a shoutout in the song, so it’s an even easier choice if new ownership wants to grab the 5 or so fans in SC

8/8/2018 11:49:21 AM

What an awful list of songs.

Raise up would be the best choice best it's still a terrible one.

8/8/2018 4:28:09 PM

why is it terrible?

8/8/2018 4:28:49 PM

why isn't it terrible?

8/9/2018 11:28:52 AM

because it’s a song that’s prideful of our state with a great hook/production from one of the best producers ever


[Edited on August 9, 2018 at 12:42 PM. Reason : .]

8/9/2018 12:33:30 PM

one of the best...20 producers ever maybe

8/9/2018 1:06:48 PM

yes, that still counts as one of the best

I mean I get it, it's catchy and all. And when you haven't heard it in a while it's nice to hear it again but after every... single....goal. It's just going to get old quick

Why not have a contest amongst local artists to produce a song about the hurricanes. Even let Petey Pablo have another go at it.

8/14/2018 11:36:13 PM

Raise up is your goal song. This one's for who?

8/22/2018 6:55:33 PM

dear god, we are such a dumpster fire

8/23/2018 9:56:00 AM

Should have used Freek-A-Leek. But at least now people will get to yell PETEY PAB MOTHER FUCKER and say eh eh.

8/23/2018 10:06:40 AM

can't wait for the parent complaints to pile on Dundon over that and the ensuing media shitshow to follow

8/23/2018 10:14:17 AM

such a shame that the technology to cut off a song before a certain thing gets said doesn’t exist yet

and that the hook that they’re using only gets used once in the song and not multiple times

what an odd scenario you’ve invented

[Edited on August 23, 2018 at 10:45 AM. Reason : .]

It's not like it'll be played very often anyway, AMIRITE?

8/23/2018 11:01:24 AM

i get it if you just don't like the song...but why is this some disaster?

8/23/2018 11:50:56 AM

I realize they will edit the song. I can just see people getting upset over this. As long as they score goals, I don't really care. The song is a poor choice to me, for multiple reasons. I'll get over it.
