2026 Hurricanes Off Season Thread

My wife and I are on Martha’s Vineyard for the week. I parked on the street in Edgartown earlier today and put on a Hurricanes baseball cap when I got out of the car. A couple were walking up the street and he said “love the hat”. He was wearing a shirt from Doherty’s Pub. I told him that I loved his shirt and had pregamed there once during inclement tailgating weather.

We got a LOT of kind words while wearing our Canes gear in Vancouver last month.

So…. What now? Just go on in life being offended? Forever? Seems like you’re only hurting yourself - not go to anymore games? Become a Panthers fan?

The Panthers dig is blasphemy, don't even go there with me. I have a pretty good memory (when it works). I wish I knew how many players have struggled, bled, and poured out their souls to hope to get a crack at making it on the Cup. Then this goes down and it's worse than not right. It cheapens the greatest trophy in sports. Am I the only one who gives a {Polar's word} about the history of the Stanley Cup? It's not supposed to be for amateurs, posers, or frauds. I'm sure it will gradually stop weighing so heavily on my mind, but I'm not there yet. Dead horse roundup, right? I just take someone earning their name onto the Cup very seriously, and I remain offended at this obnoxious stunt. I'm still not over it for the time being, that's all.
