(note: assuming they win out)

So if Tampa and the Rangers win at least one, we're hosed.

nights like tonight make me happy to be a sports fan. let's go with all the rick flair posts and hypersupportive fan stuff now.

and now the stanly cup champs flags have to come down, the former whalers are no longer that

4/3/2007 9:48:12 PM

panic countdown starts now

See you next season.

4/3/2007 9:58:29 PM

still got playoffs to look forward too

4/3/2007 9:59:18 PM

this team has given me so much, i guess we cant get it all every year.

4/3/2007 10:01:52 PM

A season of inches.

Go Preds.

4/3/2007 10:03:53 PM

i got BEAP BEAP revived for nothing

4/3/2007 10:11:30 PM

I am surprisingly OK with this.

I'll be even more OK with it if Buffalo gets pwnt.

4/3/2007 10:19:06 PM

Who will the Canes target in free agency? are they going to go after the big names (datsyuk?) or role players? Is Eric Staal going to step it up like he's supposed to? So many questions.

4/3/2007 10:19:19 PM

i need something to hit right now

[Edited on April 3, 2007 at 10:19 PM. Reason : get some clutch goal scorers and PP guys plz]

4/3/2007 10:19:21 PM

^that's what scott stevens said right before he effectively ended ron francis's career

4/3/2007 10:51:32 PM

Didn't someone just make a thread about trolls in ST... hmm....


That aside, pretty disappointing, but maybe this will get heads leveled out up top and we'll get some renegotiated deals and good trades. And maybe health? Please?

4/3/2007 10:55:27 PM

-addressing the troll issue, if you look, i've been "trolling" since 2000, three years before you, so go away n00b.

-addressing the former whalers, yes, the devils did not make the playoffs the first year of defending their title. what they did do is win 2 more in less than a decade. the former whalers have a lot to do in order to match that. they'll be lucky to even finish 10th in the standings this year.

rick flair has saggy man boobs, and the former whalers stoped overachieving

flash in the pan

4/3/2007 10:59:24 PM

since when does how long you have been here have anything to do with trolling

a troll is a troll

4/3/2007 11:04:04 PM

some people don't have a lot to say

much like the current former whalers fans right now

flash in the pan

4/3/2007 11:06:17 PM

I've never seen a flash in the pan in pro sports because you have seven game series and that kind of eliminates flukes. Kind of hard to get reallly lucky for 16 games as opposed to 4 or 5 in the non series sports. Then again, maybe not since we did play the worst team in the playoffs for the finals but we beat buffaloe and most of all

We had 112 frigging points last season!!! how could you flash the pan and get 112 poitns? If there was a flash in the pan they were almost always low seeds.

4/3/2007 11:23:59 PM

It seems like there was so much promise to the future with pretty much everbody coming back from a taem that won it all with two superstar rookies. I was thinking dynasty.

I only watch playoffs in pro sports with a few big game exceptions (way too many games with low meaning per game) Pretty much sum up the season on a whole for those who didn't watch the games? How did we come into late march like this?

Did cam ward keep playing like the playoffs or did he go to a pregerber time? bust?

Did we have trouble scoring goals? Penalty kill? PP?

What happened to stillman?

4/3/2007 11:24:20 PM

the devils finished 9th in '95-96. the canes are right on track if we're using the devils as a guidepost.

the stevens hit effectively ended ron francis' career? hardly. francis averaged 71.92 points per year and got 77 the year after the hit.

anyway, that no-call on the penalty shot is bullshit

4/3/2007 11:27:46 PM

4/3/2007 11:29:00 PM

^^^ Ward was inconsistent most of the year, made beautiful saves at times but would then let easy things through. PP sucked ass. Stillman has only been so-so after coming back from shoulder surgery mid-season.

[Edited on April 3, 2007 at 11:32 PM. Reason : .]

4/3/2007 11:31:50 PM

wtf does pregerber time mean?

also, it is impossible for a goaltender to be a bust until at least his 30th birthday

4/3/2007 11:41:30 PM

cam is pretty comparable to brodeur... the canes are not comparable to the devils

our defense and minus the left wing lock sort of make that evident

the question is, for me, do the canes make midmajor moves in the offseason or keep what they have and go to the shitter?

bright spots: staal, whitney, williams, brindy, ward, commodore, wallin, laviolette

dark spots: the rest

4/4/2007 1:29:51 AM

I like ladd

what's he got like 19 goals and 20 assists?

more than I expected

4/4/2007 1:46:22 AM

I agree with Mattallica...although he's only got 11 goals and nine assists, the garbage man is on his way to being a successful power forward, though more in the Espo mold, which is fine with me.

Larose is a relative bright spot...always good for energy, never makes mistakes and has sextupled his goal output.

Commodore plays great defense half the time but the other half of the time he takes the dumbest fucking penalties on earth. Erik Cole is similarly frustrating in his duality: he's the best player on the ice and an absolute force when he wants to be, but he only wants to be once every six or seven games.

Gleason is a gamer, but I do worry about him being a little on the fragile side (injury-wise, not toughness).

Once Grahame settled in, I had no problems with his play, but I also don't think he's necessarily the right kind of backup for Ward right now. Cam needs an older, more experienced guy (Osgood, Lalime) to give him the kinds of advice that even Greg Stefan can't provide on a daily basis.

4/4/2007 1:48:01 AM

I like scotty walker's energy most nights

4/4/2007 1:49:13 AM

Walker is also quality. Our contract concerns are Ward/Whitney/Walker.

A big part of me hopes Wesley stays for one more year. He's nothing but solid (team-leading +11) and he's cheap. With Hedican likely retiring and the possibility of signing a top pair d-man very small, Wesley is a big part of the Canes' defensive committee.
