The Hurricanes are unstoppable

[Svechhammer]

So happy for Brindy.

I remember when somebody assumed a Panthers fan was a Canes fan while they were trying to make a snarky point

There’s still people confidently predicting major Canes success such as winning division, deep playoffs etc thru the boards. Same point

 

[Chips]

And Aho looks like hot garbage too. Wait till he gets going

Tends to happen such that as soon as the player, who we’re just waiting on to heat up, heats up, some other players currently playing hot on that team cool off lol.

 

[Extra Texture]

I mean they did lose Williams, Faulk and Ferland. I like what they brought in more, but I wouldn't call those 3 nothing...

And DeHaan via trade. But I agree, despite the losses, the additions were excellent and the FA pickups were shockingly cheap.

Yeah, that's crazy talk, that could never happen

The biggest change so far this year is a Power Play that isn't hot garbage. Hamilton and Gardiner running PP QB is just a better fit than what we had with Faulk and should hopefully be sustainable this year, and if it is, could be enough to push is from where we were last year to legitimate contention.

Knowing that possibly happened because of the contract we signed Gardiner for is... Well, it's nice

 

[Chips]

Lol of all people on the boards, or this thread, making my point... why me lol. I was teasing with the first message, you can calm down, jerk


My only point was it’s early. I know the Canes can, I won’t say they WILL based on 4 games. I was only “directed” at ‘those’ people.

 

[DrewGl]

I love these threads...

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Bad timing. I think next one will be a bit of a letdown game, and then people will point to this thread.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

I love these threads...

Same because it means Canes are taking care of business. Hope there are more to come. Seems weird that a Caps fan would be enjoying it though

 

[General Disarray]

I'm calling it now. They are winning the cup. Bookmark me.

Oh mean bc they almost always backfire

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Oh gee really? I never would’ve have thought that

 

[bearcountry17]

4-0 with a tough schedule, Mtl, Wsh, and both Florida teams, and they have dominated for the most part. Even Reimer is making saves. Is there a better team right now?

The Bruins in their sleep.

 

[tarheelhockey]

I think this might be the exception though. The Hurricanes are literally unstoppable and I don’t expect this streak to end. Ever.

 

[BlueDream]

the canes had a perfect offseason bringing in haula, dizngel, gardnier, edmundson

and losing practically nothing.

they also have a ton of young players getting better

Lol at “losing practically nothing.”

I wouldnt call Justin Faulk, Michael Ferland, and Justin Williams "practically nothing."

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

When you bring in Gardiner and Haula to replace them you don’t really feel it though

 

[CartographerNo611]

If they had an a legit NHL starter maybe. But they almost lost a game where they faced 12 shots lmao. They will come crashing down to earth in a couple of weeks.

 

[Roboturner913]

Oh mean bc they almost always backfire

Half of 26 is trying to justify trading our captain, the other half is wondering why Aho has gotten so lazy, our mascot is a pig, we get free biscuits from local chicken joints for power play goals, our color broadcaster is certifiably insane, our owner thumbs his nose at the hockey establishment so hard he's starting to look like Michael Jackson circa 1998, and there are storm surges.

Friend, if backfiring was a thing, main board threads would be about #96 on the list of things waiting to backfire on us.

 

[Skolman]

"Unstoppable"

They won't finish in the top 5 in the NHL standings this year, I guarantee it.

 

[Kennedys]

The most important stats about the Canes is StromSurge/60 and it sit at 0.48.

P.S. It will never be over 0.5 (over a full season) since it only happen in Raleigh

 

[Lempo]

I have Aho in fantasy and wanna know if he is actually playing bad or is just snake bitten/ 4th guy to touch the puck

He draws his mana from same pool as Laine and Puljujarvi, and currently it's Laine siphoning it over his personal allocation, so...

It really would be solved for all three if they were re-united in the same line again, but apparently that's stuuped...!

And all he had to do was sacrifice the Atlanta Thrashers on an altar and bathe in the blood.

Yes I will be f***ing salty about that shit until the day I die.
