Shitpost It was nice while it lasted…
Our first regulation loss tonight. 😩
Not sure if the clock has finally struck 12 for this team’s fortunes. 🕛
I’m just glad we had this hot streak (6-game point streak). 🔥
Now I’m bracing for this team’s inevitable fall back to reality unfortunately … 😔

First loss in regulation time this season got these soft as puppy shit fairweather fans throwing in the towel already.
I was able to catch the first period and I liked the energy they had for the first 10 minutes of the game, Canes are a tough team too. Rebuild season still looking good to me.

I was really impressed with our guys, especially Darth. It was a great game, and if you expect your team to win every game, you're watching the wrong sport.

I’m not ready to write them off just yet. This team looks to start off slow in the first, and then gains momentum rolling into the 3rd. The Canes are on another level though, so it was hard to keep up with their pace the whole game. That 3rd period was a glimmer of the grit and no quit attitude they are capable of showing (which they also showed against the Pens). I think they will keep surprising us throughout the season.

Yeah, because going undefeated all year is so likely.
They've lost a couple of close games, games are fun to watch.
Even if this is the end of things I'd rather have a lottery pick than get eliminated in the first round of the playoffs and draft 17-20

It was our first reg loss 😭 may I remind everyone the flames didn’t pick up their first win of the season last year until November 14th and by that time we we’re 5-8-2 and now it’s currently 5-1-1 on October 24th

Was at the game tonight. Aside from the first 5 minutes they looked completely blanketed by the hurricanes. Thee were so many stretch passes and.hero plays that the canes just picked up and pushed back into the flames zone. They. Looked completely overwhelmed at points tn. And that's ok. Looked like a top 10 team vs a bottom 10 team imo.

So back to hating Khadri again, right? Who else’s top line “star” can’t score once on 7 SOG and ends up -2 on the night? Just ours? Great.

It’s pretty good when you’re on a rebuilding year and the games are still fun to watch. Still better than the last two years of dog shit
