Funny you should mention that; Leafs fans must be good at math since they're used to counting large numbers.

On the other hand, Buffalo fans have no reason to count since they've yet to win a cup yet.

Thanks man, i needed to let that all out, i had thought of actually doing a dshiddy style Luongo game 7 rant, but then i realized as disappointed as i was in my team poopting the bed in the championship week, i wasnt actually that emotionally invested in it.

Pretty well official now, no playoffs yet again. The suicide man avatar lives on.

Just a reminder, I have had this avatar since late January 2010, ie just about a week before the Phaneuf trade.

No chance. If the Panthers weren't in the division they are in, they'd be fighting for their playoff lives with all the other bottom feeders too.
- scubasteve


The Panthers are

8-7-5 vs the Atlantic
13-4-3 vs the NE
11-7-3 vs the SE.

So, guess that isn't exactly true is it?

Pierre Gauthier has been relieved from his duties. The search for a new General Manager is underway.

The Panthers do not have the depth and the experienced vets that they had in 96, and not to forget that Beezer was superb. Theodore is having an excellent season, but Beezer was..........Beezer.

Obviously any team underestimating the Panthers will lose. But over a best of 7 series that is not likely.

Still, what Tallon was able to accomplish in two seasons is remarkable.

This current Panthers team reminds me a lot of the one that went to the Stanley Cup Final some 12 years ago. They don't have much frontline offensive talent compared to the other contenders in the East, but they are pesky and become dangerous when they can hang around in close game.



1996 was 16 years ago....

He's frantically calling his russian sources to see if this "rumor" about his 5th favorite team has really fired the Goat, who was a real good guy and a perfect fit.
