Puck Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Let's do hockey a favor, give the Panthers to Quebec City.And while we're at it, let's just send some people to Pittsburgh to slap around the ones responsible for the Penguins still playing in the Igloo. Something that should have been remedied after Jean Claude Van Damme made a movie there. Yeah, I said it, the Igloo sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Am I imagining it, or were the Panthers a team that regularly won 40 or so game a season and always made the playoffs? I've never understood why Miami teams in uncapped sports ever fail. It's such an obvious market, like LA, NY, or Chicago, that it should be an obvious free agent destination. If Paul Kariya could choose Nashville of all places, it seems like Roenick would have been just as happy in Miami. Or maybe they just don't realize the Panthers play in Miami. "Miami Panthers" might not be as cute as the current title, but -- same with the Marlins -- Miami is a destination city. Let's not hide what should be a proud location. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Panthers don't play in Miami, though. And I'm pretty sure everyone knows they play in South Florida. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

The_Admiral Posted June 15, 2006 Author Share Posted June 15, 2006 Am I imagining it, or were the Panthers a team that regularly won 40 or so game a season and always made the playoffs? Imagining. They had a flukey Cup run in '96 (boy, there are a lot of those!), out in the first round 4-1 to the Rangers in '97, swept by the Devils in round 1 of 2000. That's it. I don't think they've ever won more than 40 games, but I might be wrong. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they've ever won more than 40 games, but I might be wrong. I guess I must be confusing them with the Capitals then. Oh well. So what other teams can we add to flukey Cup runs in the past decade or so? Seems like most of the losing teams get there kind of by accident, or because of a super-hot goaltender.I'm thinking the 98 Caps, 94 Canucks, the aforementioned Panthers. 02 Canes, 03 Ducks, 04 Flames, and this year's Oilers (unless, of course -- and I'm praying -- they win it). I should've prefaced that, in case it's not obvious, I don't know much about hockey. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred T. Jane Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I don't think they've ever won more than 40 games, but I might be wrong. They won 40 games twice. 1995-1996: 41-31-10 (92pts)1999-2000: 43-27-6-6 (98pts)As an aside, this season was their best since the 1999-2000 season, where they won 37 games. However, even if they did win 40 games, they still wouldn't have made the playoffs... unless one of those wins would have been against Tampa. [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.
