The best we’ve looked has been when we only have four guys on the ice…

Canes will pass the Rangers in the next five games. I’ll go a step further… we play the Bruins twice and Leafs once before the end of the season, we win those three and we’ll be the number one overall seed in the eastern conference. I think we’ll get the results we want against the teams we should beat. But if we beat the Leafs once and Bruins twice, I think those three wins will propel us to first in the conference, second at the worst behind Florida.

Scorlov is here, finally. Took until the new year but this is the guy the Canes signed. And to see him doing it with Kuznetsov in tow is a sight to behold.

Half surprised to not see the committee put Kentucky, Kansas, and Wisconsin in UNC’s region. Those three teams have been fairly common opponents for the Heels in the tourney. They did sneak Michigan State in there though.

At first glance, the East Region is tough. The top four seeds in that region are playing their best basketball right now. As for UNC, I think their region sets up nicely for a showdown with Arizona but there’s a lot of unpredictability about who UNC and Zona will face to get there. Strong potential for some upsets in that region.

They sure gave Arizona what appears to be an easy path to the sweet 16. Carolina will have a tougher time with Michigan State or Mississippi State but I think the bracket sets up nicely for a UNC/Zona matchup.

West Region UNC Arizona Baylor Alabama

Midwest Purdue Tennessee Creighton Kansas

Orlov playing at a high level right now.

South Region Houston Marquette Kentucky Duke

East Region Top Four UConn Iowa State Illinois Auburn

I like the lines at least: Guentzel - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - Kuznetsov - Necas Martinook - Staal - Fast Lemieux - Kotkaniemi - Noesen Slavin - Burns Skjei - Pesce Orlov - Chatfield Andersen Martin

I’m picking rando’s from here on out… with that said… Lemieux.

Oh well, let’s go Fred!

I’d give Martin the game today. Four games in seven days is going to be taxing next week. Split those four games between Zilla and Kooch and let Spence take care of Ottawa today.

Need more from Cadeau, he’s been rough tonight.

Burns out, Heels run incoming.

That deserved a flop warning.

Having this tournament in D.C. just feels wrong, this game should be in Greensboro.

Yeah… that’s gonna be a no for me. In the early to mid 80’s Moo U was Carolina’s biggest rival because Duke was complete ass during K’s first few years. The dookies and ncsux can lose every game for all I care.

Can’t isolate him unless Bacot is out and Withers is the five because Bacot isn’t going to stand on the perimeter. And Burns is killing Mando when we play him straight up.

Nice little play there, nice shot fake by Cormac.

I like doubling Burns when Horne isn’t in.

I think there’s a lot of parity in the conference which doesn’t help. I have 6: UNC, Duke, UVA, Pittsburgh, Clemson, Wake Forest Wouldn’t be shocked to see two of Pittsburgh, Clemson, and Wake left out though.
