FINALLY hockey is back 🔥 got my ticket for October 6 the day they dropped, can't wait to hear Centre Bell shaking when the Canes roll in 😱 five home dates in eight nights? that's a proper gauntlet but our lot never make it easy on themselves tbh. GO HABS GO 🙌💪
Heart with the team, head on pause.

Anyone who thinks Carolina just rolls into Centre Bell and takes two points is dreaming 😱 we were 6th in the whole league last year and 48 wins don't happen by accident, the building's gonna be a furnace on the 6th 🔥 backing them all day, Canes fans better keep their heads down.ah well, nowt to do but wait 💪🙌

Got my stake ready but I'll wait on the line, if Habs moneyline sits at plus money home opener, that's free value 🔥 hitting the puck line instead if they're favoured. Check who starts in net before anything.

Sold my left kidney for a pair of October 6 tickets, worth it 🤣 Centre Bell on opener night is basically a saunna with beer, Canes are gonna think they skated into a volcano. Five home games in eight nights though, my liver filed a formal complaint already 😂 Gary I'm the guy beside you chanting GO HABS GO until I sound like a bagpiper by the third period. Steve's right, 48 wins don't grow on trees, now if the boys could just figure out that whole cup since 1993 thing, my therapist says I'm close to letting it go. Close. Not there yet 🍿
Came to laugh, stayed for life 🍿

48 wins don't happen by accident, sure, but didn't Carolina also earn their points? 😅 maybe I'm wrong but a loud building alone doesn't stop them, does it? 🔥

Josh me boy, a loud building doesn't stop them on its own... but first game of the season legs against that crowd? Canes will feel it 🔥

Sorry if this is a daft question 😅 but does crowd noise actually rattle a team like Carolina, or do we just like telling ourselves that? Josh has a point IMO, first-game legs cut both ways too 🤔 Still learning this stuff, thanks for any answers 🙏

Lee_Diehard honestly you just know. Ask any visiting goalie who faced a crowd like that mid-collapse 😅 first-game legs + that noise, Canes crack before the second intermission 🏒🔥
You don't abandon your own.

Honestly this talk about Carolina cracking before the second intermission feels a bit hopeful 😅 their 48-win season came from legs, they don't rattle easy. But man I hope you're right 🙏

Dave's got a point tbh, that Canes squad doesn't spook easy. But hear me out: our boys put up 283 goals last year and we're 6th in the league, that crowd doesn't just rattle visitors, it feeds OUR legs 🔥 first home date of the run, Centre Bell gonna be a furnace, I'm backing them all day 🙌

Wait, a furnace? Calm down guys 😅 I thought crowd noise helps the home team, but now everyone says it breaks Carolina before the second intermission. Can't both be true, or am I missing something? 🤔🙏

SupporterLegend it's both eh. The noise feeds our legs AND wears theirs down, them two things ain't enemies 😅 Carolina's fit as fiddle but nobody skates clean when 21k is on their back every shift, and 283 goals last year says we got the firepower to make em pay 🔥 my money's already on that October 6 ticket 🙌
One love, one side ❤️

Genuine question, don't laugh, did Carolina suddenly get quiet ears? 😅 Noise wears teams down when they're already tired, they haven't played a shift yet. Maybe I'm wrong but I'd temper the furnace talk 🤔

Seen a few "furnaces" go cold over the years, kid, noise only matters once the game gives you something to scream about 😉 let's see October 6 first.
Seen it all, lads.
