You’re too busy to post something now? What could possible be going on with hockey on the afternoon of July 1st?? ;-)

Congrats on the mention!

Do you think the connection with SB Nation is what propelled has Canes Country into the next level (kind of like going from QMJHL to the NHL?) That’s been a remarkable synergy. I’ve found a connection with all the other sites, and apparently you’ve been “discovered” by the national press looking for the cool inside scoop on the Canes. Thinking of the NYTimes pieces you did during the playoffs.

Hope you’re getting more than just verbal reward$ for all your dedication and effort.

Let's go Canes!

We just got mentioned on SC...

For being on top of the “Fan Friendly Environment” list. And without even a hint of Hartford bitterness.

Remember, kids...don't ever let facts get in the way of your argument.

Great Job Bubba...Of course no surprise here!

Thanks DC for posting the link. I was curious as to how other teams ranked and who got #1 (Los Angeles Angels), so here’s the link for all 122 teams and what each category means:

Keep up the great work Bubba and partners.
