    I don't follow the Canes a lot, but I think you're the best at it around here if I need to know something new of them. Keep it up.

    Hi Mark. That's possible, but everyone makes little mistakes sometimes, so that's what the secondary edits are for.

    You're welcome, Mark! It was an interesting read, so it's good to see the slideshow getting a lot of reads (and starting some great debates from the readers).

    Great article and thanks for quick response on comment. Hoping our canes can get back to the playoffs. I firmly believe if we started last season off with Muller we would have been in the playoffs.
