The run to the Stanley Cup finals 2 springs ago was a fluke. The 'Canes are a very average team. Is Kevin Weekes a real #1 goalie? Speed and skill are lacking among the 'Canes' forwards.

Vrbata-Francis-O’Neill
Bayda-Brind’Amour-Cole
Svoboda-Vasicek-Brendl
CAdams-KAdams-MMurray
Hlavac?

Hedican-Hill
DMarkov-AWard
Wesley-St.Jacques
Boughner
Weekes

That was posted on the Hurricanes board over on Metro's Hockey Boards (http://www.metroboards.com/). The thread is locked on the 'Canes board (because the guy knew it would incite the natives--he's got a rather trollish history on fanhome), but the full discussion (with all the team rankings) is here:

Clearly the guy doesn't know anything about the Hurricanes if he thinks they're all slow.

For real!!! Doesn't he know about our new rocket skate technology!! Our boys are SCREAMIN' around the rink now!! so HA!! :D

...now to the little issue of stopping. I just don't see those Permaloft pillows being very aerodynamic in the long run, even though, who really cares!? We have fusion power!! There's energy to spare, mon frere!! :smoke:

He is a dumbass!! I have been watching the guys and all that I have seen and heard, this coming season will give us plenty to cheer about!!

And the Stanley Cup run was no fluke...just hard work, determination, skill and a heck of a lot of heart!! :sad:

I see us as an 88-90 point team with a 6 seed in the playoffs this coming season. That's pretty realistic, considering...

However, I do like our speed for the most parts, and look forward to the BOOM-AHHHH! sounds in the RBC when some weasel gets Markof'ed.

I'm right with you guys.... :mad: Even if we DID win the CUP, they still would have called us FLUKES ! Ignorant/Arrogant fools !

You know, I've seen this stuff quite a lot over the years, and it really doesn't bother me anymore. People can right all that they want to, but the only thing they don't really EVER do is watch the team play. If so, don't you think #10 would have gotten some respect over the years?
