Mikko is a pigeon. He will struggle mightily in Dallas.
Watch him struggle in Dallas and fade as he starts putting up 50-60 point seasons while overpaid
I was thinking that something happened when they interviewed Aho. He had that look like a family member died.
Aho looked so depressed in his interview 😂
Necas not wanting to be in Carolina was only ever a rumor that keeps getting repeated. Necas was our best player this year and we dished him out for essentially a rookie and a bunch of future rookies. When we should have gone out to find a center who can play with Necas, because that's what we were missing the entire time
Canes are pathetic and it's on the Owner (ranked 2nd to last in NHL) and Coach Rod. It's not just Mikko, it was Guentzel, it was the GM who left for COLUMBUS as ridiculous as that is. This team culture is not what the 99.9 hosts want to pretend it is. Rod has taken no heat despite choking 2 of the last playoff runs. The first we were undefeated at home and winless on the road. Can't win on the road thats on coach. Then last year where we were outscored a million to zero on Penalty. Thats on the coach. 2 years in a row trade for a star player and the guy dont want to stay here and play for this team. Then the GM leaves a "cup contender" (lol) to go to Columbus one of the worst teams in the league. It's NOT a coincidence. The owner isn't likeable to the players and neither is the coach. Thats the only thing that makes sense. Wont hear much of that on 99.9 though.
Man someone was wrong…a lot
So thrilled that Rantanen has left the arena. What does Dallas have for Rantanen? Theres like six Finns on the squad, Rantanen played juniors in San Antonio, and its a chance for him to get revenge on the Avalanche. An absolute mess, but Carolina wins the trade deadline this year. Time for the playoff push!
First caller so salty.
So much coping 😂
Mikkos gonna be pissed when Dallas gets knocked out because Jamie Benn did something stupid that cost them a series
It was a mistake. Let’s learn from it and better vet players willing to buy in before we sign them. If not, we don’t give them another look. We’ll move on.
Aho and Rantanen were not childhood friends, lived like 600 kilometers a part. Where do you get that?
Let's face facts fellow canes fans, almost every other contenting playoff team made moves at the deadline that made their teams better. Even the lowly Ottawa senators. The canes traded a point per game player for a player with 29 points, not 29 goals but 29 points. This is not an organization that is serious about winning now and they gave up on this season with 20 plus left. Tell me why I should care then?
"We're running out of time, keep it quick!"
"Okay, can do! So anyway, here's my whole backstory…"
Who wants to live in Raleigh? nobody, thats why he live
