Panthers playing Clemson, nice.

Here’s an article about Drury apparently reaching a plateau with the Canes. Also an interesting comment about Jordan Staal at the end. Staal represents the Canes and is a bit of a legend in my mind. However I do believe he’s lost a step in speed and stamina as he’s aged. I noticed it last year but even more this year. Not to say he’s not an asset anymore, his defense is still pretty good, just not what it was a few years ago and his shots are off as well. I’m sure I’ll get some disagreements, just my opinion. https://cardiaccane.com/2023/11/09/76168/

Correction - @Harbingersprovided this response in the Buffalo thread: “Yes his old gear is his Brian’s. Which Tripp at least claims is his “lighter” gear.” So I appear to have been mistaken as to which gear was lighter. Thanks Harbingers.

Hmmm … I thought his older gear was the Brian’s .. maybe need to investigate more.

Some discussions as to whether Antti Raanta was wearing his old leg pads or new lighter gear in the game against Buffalo. I found a photo that proves he was wearing his custom Brian’s Iconik leg pads and not his reported lighter weight Baeur Vapor HyperLite leg pads. You can see the logos if you zoom in on the first photo. Here is a link stating Raanta also uses the Baeur Vapor HyperLite leg Pads - https://www.geargeek.com/team/carolina-hurricanes/antti-raanta Of course both brands are customized for Raanta’s desired color scheme.

Actually the photo below shows that Antti Raanta was wearing his Brian’s Iconik leg pads for this game and not his new Bauer Vapor Hyperlite pads. You can zoom in to see the logos.

4-5 in regulation, 4-0 in OT, and 8-5 overall. I’ll take it, especially after the rocky start.

Canes are 4-0 in OT games this season. Deadly at 4 on 4. 1-0 in Shootouts.

OT Neces again wooo!!!

It was a compliment, awesome ballsy move by Raanta.

Raanta blocking shots near mid court lol. Fug staying in net.

I think it’s his superman undies.

Not sure if Raanta is using his new light gear or old gear but whatever it is stick with it. Underwear too. Don’t change anything. Lookin good!

Raanta says No. Hail No.

jarvy poo’d need a makeup

If Canes score 4 I’m there. Also Svech scores in that mix.

That was a nice rocket on the far side post by Tony

Raanta charged with robbery! What a stop!

Looks like you’re getting your wish smh

People like you are no fun. lol

Except the Texans are the only team we beat and Young had better passing stats than Stroud…

Well there it is. Worst end of a half in the history of the NFL. Tossed another floater, this time it gets picked off.

Ah Panthers found a way to get the ball back- let them score.

That was the biggest comeback win of the season, just an amazing game from the lowest lows to the biggest win. What a ride lol.
