  1. lol you mean the CH team here that’s all doom when we lose a game and all confident when we win a game? Im in the middle here on the realistic team. We can win it all, but every player has to believe that and play with confidence. And we will know that they are doing just that by winning more than a single game against a team like Montreal. The fact is Raanta can’t win it all single handedly. Takes a whole team to win the Stanley Cup. Canes are 5-5 for the last 10 games and it’s not all the goalie, on 4 of those losses we scored 2 goals or less. That’s why I say you need to be scoring 3+ goals each game down the stretch to have a real chance in the playoffs.
  2. Regardless of how well Raanta plays if we can’t score more the 2 goals against the top teams we aren’t going anywhere. Best goalie in the NHL won’t win the cup without some decent offensive line scoring.
  3. Aho is scoring more consistently now, so good to see!
  4. Reporting for duty, just back from a nice family get together for dinner. Listened to the game on radio on the way home but get to watch the 3rd period. 3 goals in 36 SOG, not too bad, would like to see that against the top teams.
  5. Well when you conceded I wasn’t about to. Canes have been known to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory as well as vice versa.
  6. I saw these stats in an article that may be of interest: ”Carolina had 85 shot attempts to Detroit's 34, but the Red Wings blocked 26 shots and the Hurricanes missed the net 26 times.”
  7. Canes have been caught on the shift way too many times this season, Roddy doesn’t seem to learn from mistakes. Hate to say that but appears to be true.
  8. Ghost didn’t make us worse, Pulju appears to have. Losing Svech made us significantly worse. He’s not just one guy, he’s one of our main guys and his hits mattered and his goals mattered and his assist mattered a lot.
  9. Front Office: “We like our team” - added no scorer by trade deadline ”We add to our team during the off-season” - adds injured Pacioretty who has to have surgery Results: Lose to Detroit … DETROIT! with 3 seconds to go in game.
  10. To give up at least getting a point for OT in the last 3 seconds. Pathetic.
  11. I’m starting to hate Hockey. Every single year. smh
  12. Nedj playing well. Need him to let one by lol
  13. Freddie keeping us in the game in the 3rd so far.
  14. Also missing Teuvo Teravainen due to illness tonight to add insult to injury.
  15. If that shot wasn’t wide Freddie would have given up another goal to a wide open net. Not playing well.
  16. Seems to me the teams know we make a lot of shots from out on the blue lines and therefore send 2 guys out right in front of the net to block shots. Along with one of the canes that’s 3 bodies in front of the net, how can you get a puck through all that? 1st period Canes have 10 SOG and Detroit has 10 blocks, that means half of our shot attempts were blocked. What do you have to do to get all those bodies off the net, shove them off right???
  17. Maybe if we all chip in and friggin buy a goal? This is frustrating to watch.
  18. lol I won’t argue with that. It’s like leadership was counting on Svech as that goal scorer, not even considering he or Aho or anyone else would have an injury. Absolutely no insurance added with a top scorer. I think they just didn’t want to pay the price.
  19. To add to the above, we’re 2nd in the league in GA/GP at 2.59 avg. So it’s not defense or goalie play that we need a boost in to win, it’s Canes putting goals in the net.
