Haven't heard from son and daughter in law since power went out in Asheville, which is without water, power and cell service. Reports of catastrophic devastation are popping up everywhere, with whole stretches of towns/buildings in western NC virtually washed away. Most of this is going...
For a preseason game, this was actually fun to watch at the PNC, no Lenova, arena. Of course, it was an NHL team vs. an AHL team, but the game was fast and pretty physcal. The new guys looked good.
Let the games begin! (Eventually.) I wasn't feeling too good about this team with all the departures, but maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised. After all, it's a new season and hope springs eternal.
This! Sitting outside on a beautiful day is the whole point of tailgating. Will tailgaters first have to park in one of the decks and carry their stuff down to the confined corridor? Will grills be allowed? Maybe future details will provide an explanation.

Tulsky is playing the long game - trying to keep this team structurally sound while ensuring we have the flexibility to make the big moves when the opportunity arises.
Great opportunity for a really nice guy. Back when I was working in RTP, I had the chance to meet with Doug on several occasions and he was a class act.
