PrintFrom the Nothing To Do With The Above Photo department: Having spent better than six seasons in the Western Conference, Panthers winger Mikael Samuelsson's 16 previous trips to the Pepsi Center have been statistically profitable, collecting 14 points (5G), a plus-6, and 4 assists on the man-advantage at the home of the Avalanche.

*
Why last night rocked:
- NYI over WSH, 3-0; 2 goals for Parenteau as Isles stuff Caps in D.C.
- NJ over WPG, 5-1; Sykora, Clarkson, Elias, Foster all plus-3
- OTW over TOR, 3-2 (REG); Turris, Alfredsson with 1G/1A
- TB over BOS, 5-3; pair by Bolts Overlord Horts not enough to salvage state sweep
Why last night jonesed:
- PIT over CAR, 2-1 (SO); Neal with the Skillz Komp winner
- NYR over NSH, 3-0; plus-3s for Girardi and McDonagh
- PHI over MIN, 5-1; Jagr, Read each 2A as Wild continue slide to 8th spot in West
Panthers Playoff Update:
- SCS has not recently updated; will link when complete
Why tonight is a Big Deal in SoFla (beyond the obvious):
- WSH at MTL, 7:30 p.m.; Caps are winners of last two at Bell Centre (and a shutout loser at home vs the Isles last night)
Next up for the Cats:
- Tonight from Colorado; the LBC Game Thread learned a very important lesson today: never shop east of Beverly Hills...before 9.
Did you know:
- Panthers have never lost to Avs on a Wednesday in Denver (2 ties & 1 regulation win, that lone victory coming on November 17, 1999...the last such meeting).
Tuesday’s Organizational Transactions:
- To FLA: Jose Theodore, G (off IR)
- To SAR: Brian Foster, G
Tuesday’s NHL Waiver Wire
- None
OT: Please help us stop SOPA before it's too late...
- Google petition
- Wiki petition
- SB Nation's position on the bill

we really need a win tonight, with the Hawks coming on Friday. it’s been a rough two weeks and i’ve been trying very hard to talk some people off the ledge. my biggest point – we’ve been struggling for a few weeks and just this week lost grasp of first in the Southeast.
with all the injured guys coming back this week or next, it’s time to go on a nice run here before the all-star break. there’s got to be a trade coming down the road too, right? too many forwards and they can’t really consider Matty down to SA, can they????
No Matty to SA… but who will go once everyone is healthy (assuming we actually get there)? And what will we do next year with the draft picks turning pro? Interesting questions and roster moves coming up.
i’m not worrying about next year and the draft picks just yet…. we need to get to May!

Reading up on this Sopa thing and I’m realizing… If it passes the game feeds online that some of you watch could end up disappearing making it harder and harder for some to see an actual game.
Don’t know if it’d effect LBC or any other SBN site directly or not though… The thing kind of reads weird and doesn’t get into detailed specifics.
by Rob PKane McMahon on Jan 18, 2012 9:03 AM EST reply actions
SOPA and PIPA would be much worse than that. LBC and SBN could be shuttered since they aren’t direct licensees of the sports to which they carry coverage. Also, if someone posted a bad link, they would be held responsible not the poster.
Its a really messed up state of affairs, engineered by a bunch of untrustworthy groups and industries who, instead of trying to work within in the system and profit, are trying to rewrite the system in their, twisted, image.
Seeing Red since 1994.
Yeah I’m reading up on it more.. you know before I’m not able to.. lol
It’s a shame really because you think, Wikipedia for example where many of us get tons of information could be taken down simply because of one post someone may put up. Now I know they are good about checking facts and removing things almost instantly but it could still happen..
Any fansite for the Cats could potentially be taken down which I find to be stupid considering most sports teams welcome such things giving fans a way to communicate with one another etc.. Been going on for decades.
Would this also mean we can’t talk about the Panthers on Twitter anymore since we’re not directly associated with the team and aren’t “official”

LBC and SBN could be shuttered since they aren’t direct licensees of the sports to which they carry coverage.
On the hockey end, SBN has a working relationship with the NHL (by that I mean there is no “bad blood” between the two, we share content, etc).
Your note about “bad links” – and the potential for direct liability – is true, which is why we got proactive about it last month.

Problem is, the day the NHL has an issue with SBN with no agreement in place then they could use this potential law to limit or shutter SBN or the offending page.
Traditionally, copyright and other intellectual property owners have to enforce their own rights via lawsuit. By flipping this burden to content providers your changing a fundamental part of the intellectual property system. And that change is being done in such a poor manner that it’ll be a mess.
Plus its a violation of our basic rights of expression. Very Chinese and Russian of the media conglomerates and related lobbies IMHO.
Seeing Red since 1994.
SOPA & PIPA will create the biggest firewall and dictate what we are permitted to read/write/sell/etc on the internet. Sign the petition on Google.. we hear the leaders and wanna be leaders of our country talking about less regulation, less government and here they try to take away another form of free expression.
Its a really messed up state of affairs, engineered by a bunch of untrustworthy groups and industries who, instead of trying to work within in the system and profit, are trying to rewrite the system in their, twisted, image.- THIS!!!

As far as I know, the main problem for user-driven sites, like Wikipedia, is that anything linking away from the site has to be monitored under the bills as they’re currently written and so if you link to a site that links to illegal content, that’s a no-no — which means Twitter’s sunk, plus most avatars and pictures people use and post may only be debatably legal. It’s a mess.
The bill is so broad in its definitions that this could be the least of our problems.

I haven’t read up on the entire thing, but I run a publishing company, and we can’t keep up with the amount of potential piracy that is out there for us. In that sense, I’m sort of torn.
Stopping piracy is important, the problem is the ridiculous way the bill intends to go about it.

read more here. I can see based on that opinion that this bill overreaches. I would like to see something that could assist my company with getting rid of piracy, however I can see where SOPA goes too far.
I still think we’re due for a breakout game soon, one of those Panthers score 5+ goals and get back on track type of affair.
Seeing Red since 1994.
What would be real nice would be to put up five or more in Winnipeg again, too, since that’s one of those wretched back-to-backs we’ve been sucking at so hard this year. It’d be even nicer if Verbeauty once again scored more goals than their entire team managed. (Winnipeg’s had that kind of treatment from a total of 17 players in 12 different games this season. They inspire either awe or giggles in me with that stat.)
I’d be very pleased with more than two goals at this point.

This is honestly make or break time for this team. At this point there are 3 ways the season can unfold. 1.) The team can turn around and begin playing like the beginning of the season. 2.) The team will continue to slump and force Tallon to make a trade to acquire a scorer to try to make the playoffs. 3.) Tallon will sit on his hands and wait for the injured players to return hoping their presence will lift the team into a playoff spot. I think we will end up making a significant trade getting rid of some of the extra forwards we are currently carrying. With the way the team is playing I don’t think Tallon will accept sitting back and waiting. We all saw what he did at the beginning of the season when he traded Booth.

During my M.B.A. studies, we were told specifically not to use Wikipedia for any source material. Also, as I put up there, I run a publishing company, and it would take somebody full-time here and a lawyer to try to take down all of the pirated material that is out there. So, I’m torn on this whole situation.
It’s one thing for an MBA candidate to be required do their own original research, it’s a whole different thing if I just wanna find out what the first air date of “Charles in Charge” was.
The artist formerly known as L'Mysterioso
As well you shouldn’t! I love Wiki, I almost always have a tab open with it and if I’m just doing some casual fact-checking about who was on the 2009 Russian WJC team or when John Adams’ birthday is, it’s great. It’s given me some great trails to follow through the citations, too, but it’s not a scholarly source. The reason universities tell their students not to use it is because there are protocols in place with peer-reviewed arguments and theories that just aren’t available to Wikipedia. Even when there are experts editing those pages, they’re going to slip up because there’s not a committee of other experts checking them. Good academic practice never means Wikipedia, even though we all use it.

Not being able to look up what SOPA is on WIkipedia cause it’s blacked out would be pretty ironic.

COL’s Brandon Yip is on waivers. I doubt Tallon would take him, but he did have a lot of success early in his career (19 points in 32 games) and scored 12 goals last year.
I’ve watched his ups and downs, he needs a coach who can pressure him.

It’s like in baseball, sometimes a guy is slumping. They might hit a few bombs that go foul, line drives that just find the glove, and some calls against them and the manager sits them for a game just to have them chill out and mentally regroup.

Its amazing. Sometimes they announce every little detail including the name of the doctor and hospital, sometimes they leave it at lower/upper body injury for a month
I’m putting here for reflection later on in the season…. #14 Tomas [Fleischmann] is getting a 40G season. FLASH COUNT: 15G/19A

I think Upshall’s the only one who might be in, but he took extra work after practice, so they’re not sure.
If Upshall counts as one of the four injured I think we have an answer.
The artist formerly known as L'Mysterioso
Upshall, Bergy, Skille, and Sturm
So yea Upshall’s one and I’m thrilled he’ll be back at it tonight. Of the four injured, I think he might come out with the most fire in him. He has something to prove. He didn’t live up to expectations earlier this season and he’s spent almost all his time just watching.
I agree. Let’s hope his traditional second half of the season success isn’t contingent on him having actually played the first half.
The artist formerly known as L'Mysterioso
For sure. I think it’ll be interesting to see where Dineen fits Upshall in for his first game back if he’s indeed playing tonight.
Also, like I said below, where does Repik fit in?
Yup, he’s playing much better but he’s going back down soon. Too many forwards once everyone is healthy.
We’re really missing out on a second line center right now.
If Weiss is not centering Flash and Samuelsson, does that mean it’s gonna be Goc centering Versteeg and Matthias? With Upshall and Kopecky being centered by Madden? Santorelli centering Barch and Bradley?
Where does Repik fit in?
I can’t see Dineen sitting Repik right now, though. He scored a goal last game, he’s creating scoring chances, he’s been playing well. I’m thinking he might scratch one of the three 4th liners.
Well Twitter certainly has us all Aflutter today!
I hereby predict Captain Mike Weaver #43 will score 6G 20A -RCR 0G10A 1/17

Yeah and it’s also not fair to point the finger solely at him especially when it seems Fleischmann has been even more of a non-factor lately then he has

and thats not me trying to point the finger solely at flash either.. just stating numbers wise it’s true
by Rob PKane McMahon on Jan 18, 2012 3:48 PM EST up reply actions
A bit OT, but...
Do you guys think, with his performance this season and continued growth the past three years, that Drew Shore could be an impact player at the Center position for the Panthers in the next two years or so? I’m talking second or third line.
More like two years, but yes.

provided they can sign him. I am excited about Shore’s potential but wouldn’t be surprised if he is dealt at some point if the Panthers need to add a good piece to the NHL roster (just a gut feeling here). We do have Bjugstad and Howden in the pipeline at the center position.
Howden is a winger and Bjugstad is playing the wing with Minnesota. The depth at center is solid right now, so Shore get a degree and play with his two little brothers next season without the Panthers worrying.

I was just listening to Dineen on Sid Rosenburg, he did say that Versteeg is a game-time decision due to possible health issues. He denied that he was unhappy with his play aside from the Pens game, and he stated that having Versteeg on the team is different than a team that doesn’t have VerBeauty.

Hurricanes acquire Evgenii Dadonov and A.J. Jenks from the Florida Panthers in exchange for forwards Jon Matsumoto and Mattias Lindstrom.

?!?!?!?!
Wow, didn’t see Dadonov being moved. Dale doesn’t waste time when he doesn’t like someone’s play.

I think they gave him more than enough chances. As long as he doesn’t go Grabner on us.

The guy that we got for Dadonov, Lindstrom, he looks like he actually could be a good player. 18th overall on Carolina’s Top Prospects, a Power Forward, here’s his profile: http://www.hockeysfuture.com/prospect/Mattias_Lindstrom

that he is not playing in the Elite league makes me wonder about this guy but he could be a late bloomer
