He hurt his forearm and wrist in the 1st half.

Bryce can't even get his own coach fired.

Martin is a call up #3. Kochetkov is a #1B. Of course they don't get the same treatment. Just stop already.

Kochetkov would have let in the same 5. None of those were cheap goals, except the goalie interference that wasn't. So, just stop. Nobody is playing favorites here except you.

Colorado double shifted their top line almost the entire second period. On the road without last change, no way you can defend their top line and one of the best PPs in the league, I don't care if it's Freddie, Kochetkov or Martin.

What did I say about Colorado's PP? Can't lose Makar, MacKinnon or Raantanan. They took over the game while Carolina is struggling in the altitude.

Got lazy and lost the lead in less than 2 minutes.

Probably should be 3-0 with the chances they've had.

I think Aho wanted Jarvy to pass it back. 3 on 1 shorty, you gotta score.

Save was wild.

D-men are doing a good job of getting back. Last thing we need is Makar or MacKinnon getting behind the D. And they'll get back quicker to protect Martin.

Canes showing a lot of energy so far.

Nobody had Drury. Martinook continues to soldier forth.

Probably see him 3-4 more times this month with 3 back-to-backs in the next 21 days.

Oh, boy.....

15 games in 30 days, including 3 back-to-backs. Ottawa and St. Louis next Saturday-Sunday; followed by Philadelphia and New Jersey 3 days later. Finally, finish the month with a home-road back-to-back against Florida. No doubt we'll see Martin in net for at least 3 games- each of those b2b's. And the Canes are the first team since the 1960 Bruins to put the same lineup on the ice every game this far into the season. Yes, we're already to November 9, but the next 3 weeks are gonna be rough. Tighten up your chin straps boys! Ice up!

I'm staying with the Ghost tonight in Denver.

He's overdue. Been playing very well, and has nothing to show, unfortunately.

Don't underestimate the level of difficulty on this road trip. Colorado always plays Carolina tough and their record belies the matchup issues they present. Avs have one of the best PPs in the league, scoring at a 36% clip, against one of the best PKs in the league in the Canes. Stay out of the box, guys. Easier said than done because we all know Svech will get called for not committing a penalty, just because. The trip on Letang called the other night was ridiculous- Svech was stationary and Letang purposefully skated into him and went down. Fortunately, they don't have to travel far for each game- not more than an hour flight from one city to the next, if that.

Nobody said he had a bad game. The goal scored on him, was on him. He got caught way out of position and that particular play was just ugly. Again, nobody said he played a bad game. Take a breath. On a positive note, he absolutely shut down Crosby and I think even Crosby was complimentary of his play. If I was going to be concerned about anything from last night- the number of SOG the Canes allowed- way off their norm.

In other news, Rangers goalie Shitstain chased after Buffalo hangs 5 on him, including 3 goals in less than 2 minutes.

And that is why I'll never bet on #52 to pitch a shutout. He looked like he was playing Twister he was so out of position.

A former Canes goalie (Ned) is having a former Canes goalie (Raanta) like night.

Slavo!

Does the Jack Attack get a hattie?
