Hurricanes are ranked 15th in GF/GP, basically middle of the pack. Canes are 42-4-5 when scoring 3 goals or more. It’s not goalie play keeping us from winning more games, it’s putting pucks in the net. Score three or more for almost all of the remaining games demonstrates Canes have turned it around and have a real chance of winning the Stanley Cup. Otherwise it’s gonna end early in the playoffs.

You know things aren’t looking good when we have to start analyzing and hoping the teams behind us lose. Truth is we have to start winning every game left with rare exceptions to be a team that can win the Stanley Cup.

Correction, if Rags win they would be tied in points with the Devils but 1 win behind.

Rangers on a decent run, they were 9 points behind Canes, then 7, now just 5. If they beat the Devils then they’re just 3 points behind. They would be tied with the Devils in wins and points, two teams nipping at our heels. I hate the Rags so mixed emotions lol. We just need to win win win and keep both behind us or we could end up in 3rd place. Losing tonight would be moving in the wrong direction. We got out hit by TB 28-14, heavy hits take a lot out of a player. This is where we’re really missing Svech!

INSIDER SCOOP!!! My childhood buddy Booger Thompson is dating a gal who is neighbors with the cleaning lady for a cousin of GM Scott Fitterer. The cleaning lady overheard talk the Panthers are definitely gonna pick CJ Stroud! Since I know Boogers rumors almost never are true, then that makes it almost a certainty Bryce Young will be the choice!

*California transplant has entered the chat*

Can we get Dougie Hamilton back? Why is he so much better since Canes let him go??

May as well pull for Pulju and the whole friggin team, they’re ALL underdogs after last night.

I’ve seen that exact post from others on twitter about other teams lol. An obvious copy and paste humorous bit.

Attending the game in person you certainly deserved better and rightly pissed!

2-2-1 against the top 5 we just played. Not a good look. Still time to put something together that works, but not putting money on it.

At this point I just want a goal to stop a shutout.

Chatfield just missed an open net, tough day on the ice for the Canes, can’t seem to buy a goal.

I thought Aho was pushed slightly from behind and that causes the trip

Another chase and come back game, this is getting old. Too many games playing on hope and a prayer. Rod try working on the fundamentals like how to pass for a start.

If I had a dollar for every opposing team goal immediately after a Canes PK, I could at least buy a 6pack of quality beer. It’s like we let up after the PK at times.

Kochetkov says NYET! love that

Canes could be down 2 right now with all the grade A’s they’re giving up. Kucci doing a good job in net.

Big game. Without Svech and Paci, we’re really the underdogs against a lot of these good teams, so others will have to step up as they have been doing.Prediction - Aho to continue his scoring/points streak.

Yep. Worry won’t help of course, the deed was done with this deal.

If Canes win tomorrow they will have gone 3-1-1 in the 5 top team games NYR (twice), Leafs, Bruins and Lightning. That’s playoff quality play. If they lose all bets are off lol.

Whooo! It was 2-1 in the third until Palmari scores again with 4:30ish minutes left making it 3-1. 2 empty netters later and Islanders win 5-1. Sorokin stopped 35 of 36 shots for the Islanders. Canes 3 points ahead of NJD with 2 games in hand, looking good!

The lengths they’re going to to get the stench of Rhule outta the place lol
