Let’s goooooo I’ve been waiting:)
Is it worse to have the old reputation of the Caps that couldn't get past the 2nd round or to occasionally get to the ECF but can't ever win a game there?
Second? maybe lol but I think 10 or around that
I was right, Vegas is top 5. They might even be #2
I will be the person you're talking about Shannon…. It is THE loudest house in the NHL.
Guessing it’s gonna be:
1. Lightning
2. Golden Knights
3. Avalanche
4. Bruins
5. Maple Leafs
Although 2-4 are close
Its a wonder how team thats can be offensivly so talented can score more than one or two goals per game in playoffs. Last playoffs the 2 first rounds were promising buyt the conference finals were just horrid , they could jsut not score at all when they needed it. MIssing Svetchnikov was huge and Patcioretty not playing was also big. They could make big move this deadline to get goal scorer to be the finnisher they need. Someone like NEcas could be the piece to move in trade like that
I have to double post but with how the leafs turned on Freddy and yet still their best goalie (THG video on the leafs) and Freddy still do/does well for the canes (yes injuries)
leafs is a team there break goalies their don't make them
Love being 6
LOUDEST AND IT ISNT CLOSE
That sweep by Florida last year was about as evenly matched as you can get considering it was a sweep. All games were decided by just 1 goal (the first two games were in OT, game 3 was a 1-0 score, and the final game winning goal was scored with just 4.9 seconds left on the clock). Florida just had that killer instinct that Carolina lacked.
They very well could win a cup as is however there are some key pieces that dont produce *necas* in moments that count and could be moved for a played that can impact better, by not making dumb plays.

Loudest house in the NHL, if we get the conference finals blues out of the way we have the opportunity to be a dynasty with the young guys and in my opinion the best coach in the NHL
If we don't win it this year i have to blame Waddell… the whole 'we like the guys we have' is getting old. Should have gotten serious about goalies in the off-season and tbh they still are ignoring it. Martin is nothing more than a place holder.
I was hoping we would be in the top 5 but still Good!
Go Canes!!!!!
I think the canes biggest thing is that the front office isn’t interested in going all in. They want a consistent winner and feel they can’t have that if they trade off future assets for a win now run. I think the team has the talent to get it done but like you said it all needs to go right. Goalie down? Good luck. Svech or other top injury? Good luck. Kind of need to at least once try to go all in because there’s vets who are going to retire without a win. It’s just tough because it may cost a hobey baker candidate in Jackson Blake or Scott Morrow.
I cant see us winning the Cup when one of our regular goaltenders had a meltdown so horrible he was waived, cleared waivers and sent to the minor league only to be called back up out of desperation because now Kochetkov is hurt too.
But I’d love to be wrong 😊
I’d be surprised if they won the cup not because they’re not a talented team, but because they seem to just plateau in the playoffs and stall
If Necas heats up, svech is healthy and the goalie is squared away then they can take the cup. Pressure is on this year for sure!
Defense is not as tight as last year. Goaltending is suspect…again. They will make the playoffs, but unless they turn it up to 12 outta 10 in the playoffs they are not getting to the Cup Finals.
I have no faith in Carolina to win the Stanley Cup lol
Really hoping we have a Cup in our near future! The pieces are (by and large) there, just have to have that one playoff run where it all falls into place.
If the Canes had a top 15 goalie and then Kochetkov, there would be no doubts about them winning the cup. They have to play so defensively to support the goalie unfortunately. But, when the goalie is on, as we saw earlier this season with Kochetkov being super in net, the team is unstoppable.
Oh sick, my favorite team’s all time power rankings vid was filmed on my birthday
I swear if we can just keep everyone healthy we'd be damn near unstoppable. Injuries to key players seem to be our biggest foe every season
Canes have been an NHL club longer than the whalers were playing as an NHL club. Top 5 coach & gm, and a superb owner. They will surpass rangers on their way to another division title. If Svech and patch were healthy last playoffs, Florida series goes the other way, so it’s stupid to crap on their ECF record and say they’ll need to make a change somewhere. Healthy in net and they’ll be on the doorstep of the Final again.
Edit Ps. Good canes corner pod with Brindamour this week
