Wednesday Caterwaul - Panthers Open Forum

Up for discussion...

 

  • On Frozen Pond's GR shed some light on Den of Honor, v2.0. I think it's a nice tribute to some solid folks. Just don't retire anything...yet.
  • Finally took more than a passing glance at scoring per team, and it finally sunk in that Florida is 13th in the league. Not conference, league. Goals-against has improved from years past as well.
  • Jiggs McDonald will again fill in for Randy Moller at 790 The Ticket, likely for tomorrow's romp in Nassau as well.
  • Stephen Weiss is a game-time decision. What was your impression of Dominic Moore holding down Weisser's spot on Monday?
  • Tonight's Live Game Forum featuring the Panthers at New Jersey Devils will post around 6 or so. On that note, I asked John Fischer from In Lou We Trust who has been the most important member of the Devils' organization this season, and he (quite wisely) chose head coach Jacques Lemaire:

"When [Lemaire] was hired, I was worried. When preseason happened, I was relieved. He has improved upon what Brent Sutter did, he's shown more faith in the younger players in the lineup, he's allowed more freedom in terms of tactics, and he rewards good play.  The Devils have suffered significant injuries of varying lengths to various players of various importance, yet the team hasn't had a losing streak longer than 3 games all season. 

 It doesn't matter if the opponent is Buffalo, Washington, Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay, or Atlanta.  The Devils may not be consistently great, but they will compete, they will be a challenge for opposing teams, and they will look to succeed whenever possible.  Lemaire has made the right moves behind the bench to make it happen..."

 

And we Florida fans didn't want him here in an advisory position, 'cuz he'd go all neutral-zone on us. I was part of it as well.

Game's at 7, kids.

DeBoer switched the 1st and 2nd lines around so quickly, it wasn’t possible to say whether Moore or Reinprecht replaced Weiss. Moore is totally underrated by DeBoer as he continues to play his favorites – and we all know who they are!. Often looks like Moore is the only forward on his line if he’s got Campbell and Kreps for wingers. And Dvorak never passes on a rush. However, Campbell has been great on the pk lately and Kreps is good on face-offs.

Agreed on Moore, Ryan; he didn’t appear to last too long with the top trio. Hoping he gets a longer look unless it simply didn’t work right from the start.

good news according to Goldie, Weiss is in the line up tonight.

also, Brodeurs 27(!!!!)th straight start. we think its crazy that Vokoun has reached 10, and Marty is how much older?

also, where will this “den of honor” take place?

Remember

When Ed Belfour started something like 23 games in a row and almost gtot us into the playoffs at age 40! I don’t think age matters, it’s all about preparation, mindset, and staying in a grove.
Vokie can do it if he has to.
Sometimes I think coaches are treating goaltenders like starting pitchers!
