TONS of discussion... just no answers!
Everybody has the attitude, "What the heck is going on?!"

Chuck Kaiton, long-time radio broadcaster (goes back through the Whaler's days) said he has not seen anything like this with this franchise since 1982. All the peices are there... looks good on paper... deep run into last year's playoffs... and just stinkin' up the ice.

Lots of pride and veteran presence on the ice - but it sure is not showing. 'Canes fans are trying not to panic, but 13 points back from first on the Southeast this early in the season is scary.
