I guess I’ll be the “old man yelling at cloud”...

I completely understand why Lindholm may want to give it to the ‘Canes a bit. And who knows? Maybe people in the crowd were chirping him (almost seemed like he was looking at some specific fan/fans)...

But I don’t like taunting in general, just from a sportsmanship perspective. In general, it’s not a good look for a team (IMO), especially one that hasn’t yet proven anything in the post-season. Take the win, save the gloating for the post game beers.

Anyway. Not something this team does regularly, so, likely an emotional release for him. And he played well, so, I do understanding the “see what you lost?” component.

Okay. I’ll go back to the crew-cut-1950s-football-no-fun-league forum now...
