I am sorry for the lack of posts loyal readers, but my personal life has been all over the place and until I can make money complaining about the Cats, I must continue with the 9 to 5 grind. Anyways, enough about the poor, pitiful me and let’s move on to the poor, pitiful Panthers. … Read more
I would like to give my take on some of the biggest questions and takeaways for Panthers fans from this offseason.

One of my biggest criticisms of Andrew Brunette as a coach was his inability to make changes and how he continually stuck to his guns/lines, especially when it came to the defensive pairings. When I saw that the morning lines looked to be the same as the lines looked in Saturday’s ass beating, I went … Read more
How many articles did I write this season saying that the lackadaisical defensive zone play is going to cost the Panthers?

Last night the Panthers took on the Canes in Raleigh as both teams battle for supremacy in not just the Eastern Conference, but the NHL standings. For those who didn’t get to watch it, you missed out … Read more
I am going to pretend like I did not read all the Bobrovsky/goalie bashing in the fan pages. More importantly, I am hoping that this is just new and excited fans who jumped on the #JoinTheHunt movement and may not be educated on the game quite yet. Chances are that’s the case as the last … Read more
Normally you are not pleased with a 3-2 record over the last 5 games; however, considering how they have played on the road to start the season and they only had the one bad loss to Calgary; I am rather pleased.
