Rags are going to make us look bad too I’m afraid, granted we make it out of our series. Would be nice if NJ would ding them up for us. 

On paper it looks that way, but something tells me we owe them from last year. They just don’t seem as heavy on hits, as last year. We need to drub Trouba though, I haven’t forgot about Jarvis.

Lindy Ruff is a friggin' Dinosaur who brings Dinosaur thinking.

His response to the Devils losing Game 1 was not having the Devils focus on getting back to what got them there but to DOUBLE-DOWN on "Physicality" at the expense of their identity.

The result :

The entire team STUNK

 

GM Fitzgerald better jettison this old fart this offseason and promote Brunette. 

The Devils I think reached as far as this old fossil could take them (though I do believe they won IN SPITE of him).

I still don’t understand why he continued to play Blackwood down the stretch. Carolina tried to give the division away and stuff wouldn’t take it.

Dunno what y’all are doing but I hope you can right the ship tomorrow.

Conventional wisdom was the team overachieved during the regular season and wasn't supposed to be this good for another year or 2.

That being said, I was at least hoping the Devils could lean on the Rags a little and wear them out, but they're making this pretty easy and NY might be sitting at home, resting up, and waiting to see who they face next.

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
