The Wolfpack ain't for soft people, as Philip Rivers likes to say. Meanwhile, the shitshow in Chapel Hill is rolling deeper into the shit and Duke is just keeps on minding its own business and winning ball games. All you can do is sit back with your bbq plate (stop asking me if I want slaw, of course I want slaw, it's barbecue!) and laugh.

Under Peter Karmanos, the team was floundering, missing the playoffs, hiring incompetent coaches, taking no chances, and seemingly fine with losing. Us Caniacs were ready for new ownership and we got it. Yeah, Dundon makes crazy decisions that we don't always like, but he wants what us fans want: a winning hockey team that is capable of earning the Cup every season. The Dundon-led Hurricanes are the complete opposite of the Karmanos era. They've taken chances on a rookie head coach, a rookie GM, bold choices in the free agent market and trade market, and some of those chances worked out magically and some haven't. So what? Find guys that do work out and keep moving forward.
When you read stories like this Cup story, always keep in mind: this is the same organization that when called a bunch of jerks by a very popular hockey commentator, they made a t-shirt out of it on the very next day and have made a mint from it. When the Canes win the Cup next year, Dundon can put his dog's name on for all I care.

Has John Tortorella set a record for the shortest duration as the head coach of a Stanley Cup finals team? Hired by Vegas on March 29 and dismissed on June 16, a total of 49 days in the position. What might management expect for performance?
He was replaced by the head coach of their AHL affiliate. Apparently this was in the plans for a while now. I guess they didn't want to throw him to the wolves as the playoffs were approaching.
