I think the RBC Center and Carter finley must have been built on an indian burial ground. And theyre still pissed. They let us taste victory in 06 with the cup, but never again will they let us have anything.

No, that's Paul Maurice keeping us from anything.

Seriously, in any other organization this guy would be fired after the debacle of last season. When has Paul Maurice been anything other than mediocre in the coaching department?

And seriously, how long before there is some accountability here? The constant in all of the 'Canes sucky years has been Paul friggin Maurice.

Want to see what Anthony Stewart can do? Want to get Dalpe playing first-line minutes instead of Chad "I'm a fan favorite so play me every chance you get" LaRose?

I swear. When I'm back from Europe in December for a week and I will get to see one single game in two years... there better be someone else behind that bench.

I know he's young and inexperienced at the NHL level, but Justin Faulk hasn't proven himself much thus far, at least in my eyes. Seems like he's been taking a lot of bad penalties and looked lost several times out there. He alone is far from the problem, but I wish we'd scratch him in favor of Joslin or McBain.

10/10/2011 5:32:26 PM

I expect that Justin Faulk is going to be a damn fine NHL defenseman one day, but his first 3 games have been nothing short of a disaster.

10/10/2011 5:41:18 PM

He hasn't gotten worked too bad on a one-on-one level, but the penalties he's taking are unacceptable. Kaberle ain't been a stunner, either.

Much rather see McBain and Joslin than Faulk and Kaberle.

Gleason: +3, 0 PIM
Allen: +1, 4 PIM
Pitkanen: -1, 4 PIM
Harrison: -2, 0 PIM
Kaberle: -3, 0 PIM
Faulk: -6, 10 PIM

Holy shi-ot, for two reasons: the first is Faulk's dumb numbers, but the second is that TIMMAY is +3 on a winless team. I love that man so much.

10/10/2011 6:48:39 PM

It only took the first game of the season for me to say that Faulk needed to go to the AHL. He has shown some flashes here and there, but it's not quite there yet. No reason to have him playing over Joslin or McBain.

10/10/2011 7:35:15 PM

Faulk needs to be paired with allen, not kaberle.

10/10/2011 9:41:44 PM

Skinner - Staal - Stewart
Jokinen - Sutter - Ruutu
Poni - Dalpe - Dwyer
Tlusty - Brent - Larose

Pitkanen - Gleason
Allen - Faulk
Kaberle - Harrison

Stewart adds the physical element to Staal's line, Sutter becomes more offensive minded with Finns on each side, Dalpe gets the much needed time to learn defense on a checking line, 4th line is energy line and finally Kaberle and Faulk get responsible Dmen on their side.

10/11/2011 2:16:20 PM

take your logic and GTFO, this is a Mo "coached" team

10/11/2011 2:42:04 PM

i like that set up, but i would swap stewart and ponikarovski.

10/11/2011 7:29:03 PM

I like it and know it won't happen. For shame

Mo's regular season strategy

1) Open the regular season by digging as large a hole as humanly possible
2) Get your shit together somewhere around the All-Star break
3) Rattle off a bunch of wins
and
4) Hope to get into the playoffs by 1pt
5) Profit?

10/12/2011 11:06:40 AM

#%#$#$%#%

10/12/2011 11:09:13 AM

Faulk out, McBain in

10/12/2011 11:25:36 AM

Well, that's good news at least

10/12/2011 11:26:17 AM

LaRose has n00dz of Mo.

anyone else hear that?

Edzo should be fired for that comment.

10/12/2011 8:18:25 PM

vs coverage, the suck.

10/12/2011 8:31:34 PM

There isnt a player I hate more than Marchand

10/12/2011 9:07:25 PM

I want to break that damn nose of his.

10/12/2011 9:16:29 PM

What a great game. If we can play like this every night we will win a lot of games. Cam was amazing as usual

10/12/2011 10:09:37 PM

Yeah much better looking tonight! Hopefully we can get some wins strung together now

10/12/2011 10:12:35 PM

That interview with Pierre at the end was BS. Here Cam is after playing well and getting his first win, and the first question he was asked was how Seguin sniped him from a bad angle. Of course he handled it with class though.

10/12/2011 10:14:28 PM

So the broadcasting team was saying Maurice was arguing for the refs to award a goal when Staal got taken down by Bergeron on the empty net opportunity... is that even possible for them to do (and if it is, has it ever really happened before)? I've never heard of that.

10/12/2011 10:16:07 PM

So we win the only game Skinner and Staal are held scoreless? I'll take it but probably won't happen too often.

10/12/2011 10:19:11 PM

rule 57.4

10/12/2011 10:20:34 PM

^^^^Cam Ward has a good soul

10/12/2011 10:24:59 PM

^^ thanks, i looked at a couple sections of the rulebook but couldn't find it

[Edited on October 12, 2011 at 10:44 PM. Reason : a]

10/12/2011 10:28:00 PM

I concur about Marchand.... I bet he fist pumps. Himself.

Great win tonight. Notes of rage, though.... WHY THE FUCK WAS LAROSE ON THE FIRST LINE??

I thought Kaberle and Harrison looked stiff at times, but overall good games.

Stewart probably added 18000 twitter followers tonight

10/12/2011 10:45:29 PM

so, were any of you on the bus back with me from the game (downtown) and heard homeboy talk about how russell wilson was only a 'servicable' quarterback, and other silly things? The Citadel and NC State former student who was such a big Carolina fan?

I feel like it must have been one of you yelling at him with me, it was just too good.

10/12/2011 11:03:33 PM

10/12/2011 11:44:18 PM

My favorite moment last night outside of the game itself was their deciding to show Tyler Hansborough and Bobby Frasor on the big screen, because of the absolute chorus of boos that followed. It was wonderful.

Tlusty looked really good most of the night, wtf.

10/13/2011 10:09:30 AM

10/13/2011 5:08:42 PM

Headed to the Buffalo game in a few hours. Can't wait to be the asshole away fan for once.

10/14/2011 12:32:12 PM

Maybe they'll give out souvenir pint glasses that you can throw

10/14/2011 12:53:03 PM

I think I could take out more Buffalonians if I broke it over some guys head and then stabbed a few with the remaining shards.

10/14/2011 1:03:26 PM

10/14/2011 3:50:41 PM
