Welcome BachelorGirl.net! I just had to add her to my list of favorite non-hockey sites. BachelorGirl is from my hometown, and she's a hoot. And she's got her own theme song!I want my own theme song. Who wants to write one about a transplanted Southern media junkie who likes hockey?

I think it's time for me to go back to fangirl posts where I talk about how cute the players are. 'Cause there's nothing cute about the way the 'Canes are playing.6-1 loss to the Flyers. There aren't enough Goobers to help me today.
La, la, la, I can't hear you!!!

The Rangers, including one Marc Staal, did the Top Ten for David Letterman last night. I kinda wanted to punch Sean Avery when he did his bit. Henrik Lundqvist got the best line, "How can anyone concentrate on hockey when Jennifer Aniston still hasn't found love?"They...

The Acid Queen is shuttering her palace. I am marking the occasion because hers was the first 'Canes blog I'd ever read. She was also the first to welcome me onto the bandwagon. All hail!

Just in case you were living under a rock last night, the 'Canes lost their first game to the Preds 4-2. All reports seem to indicate that Eric Staal and Erik Cole were in fine form, and I heard quite a bit of action from Ray Whitney and Tuomo Ruutu as well. Let's hope this...

Getting back into the blogging groove is more difficult that I'd anticipated, so please bear with me. If you're expecting pearls of great wisdom, prepare to be disappointed. It's just me talking to hear myself talk.With that in mind, I offer a few thoughts about this week...

The Canes signed center Stephane Yelle for a one-year contract. Yay. Woo. We've got a lot of big guys on our team now. It only took years of fans screaming at JR to accomplish this.I hate summer.Wake me up when September ends.

With the Alberts signing, we'll actually have a 6'5" d-man that will HIT somebody once in a while. Although I will miss Babs' slapshot, he plays like a freaking china doll. He can take his fragile ego and his stupid salary demands and go elsewhere.

Somewhere I read that the Canes' affiliation with the Albany River Rats was up for renewal this year or otherwise unsettled. Was that ever resolved? Did I just imagine that?
The suspense is killing me...

...so I'm hoping that by blogging about it, I'll wake up tomorrow to news that the Canes have finally signed Seidenberg and Ruutu.

Apologies for the lack of posts. Hope to be back on soon. I did follow the post-season and was thrilled to see the boys make it to the ECF. It was the highlight of what has been, so far, a difficult year.As you were!

Some initial thoughts:1. Don't know what's making the difference; all I know is this is the second game in a row WHERE WE SCORED THE FIRST GOAL! So, well done!2. Scotty, dude, you do NOT need to be fighting right now.3. Matt Cullen, you rule. You also remind me of an "...

By now you've probably seen our former coach's 24 minute press conference, held yesterday at Rey's Restaurant.If you haven't seen it, you can find video here at WRAL SportsFan. The audio is really low, so turn up your speakers. I was pleased to see him sporting his...

I know it's unrealistic to expect any immediate results from the firing of Coach Laviolette, but last night's beatdown by the Penguins certainly added insult to injury.While the boys came out showing some signs of life in the form of 8 shots on goal in the first few minutes...

That's what John Forslund just said to Mike Maniscalco on 99.9 FM The Fan, on the firing of Coach Peter Laviolette.Paul Maurice returns, and I'm dumbfounded.I need some time to absorb this.In the meantime, Thank You Coach Lavi for all you did and tried to do.

Here's an interesting tidbit from the N&O:Williams, Francis join power-play workJust gets the blood pumping, doesn't it? I will be at Sunday's game, and the possibility of seeing Williams on the ice there is making my heart sing. I also think the part about Francis...

This year I've had the great fortune to attend quite a few home games. Unfortunately the Canes have lost nearly every one I've attended since the home opener. I haven't had the heart to go back and check for sure.Last night's loss was difficult because I thought the...

Just a quick post before I go dark again to deal with some family matters.I attended yesterday's game against the Oilers. And while listening to the post-game autopsy in the parking lot, Hub and I shook our heads at the idiots calling in asking to change goalies because of the...

After a dismal first period, it was the Captain that gave the Canes the needed shot in the arse. My man scored a beautiful goal in the 2nd that helped to wipe away Tampa's 3-0 lead.Then Cully, who told Tripp he wanted to get "a real goal" in tonight's game, scored...
