It actually was and that was with Ovechkin not even attempting to play hockey.

Yep playoffs stats don't count towards that! He had 0 goals 0 assists for 0 points in the Rags series and it wasn't because they took him out of the game he took himself out..... 5 shots on goal 8 shot attempts IN FOUR GAMES.

He wasn't even half assing it he was literally gliding and making zero effort to play

This is the nothing burger of all nothing burgers it's literally just the NHL media trying to create playoff drama for the Canes.... Rod wants to be here..... the CANES WANT ROD HERE. RBA has lived in Raleigh since he retired from playing he loves it here.... https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/40070861/hurricanes-brindamour-feels-really-good-reaching-new-deal

Yeah the Caps didn't belong lol

Side note if the Leafs win this will be the third year in a row the Bruins lose round 1 in 7

Couldn't happen to a nicer group!

Why?

They would have been in the running for anther Calder cup if they hadn't..... we have one of the best prospect pools so I suspect they will be much better next season

I'd rather role with the complete Rook in Morrow... Coglan is what people exaggerate and say TDA is.... completely incapable of conpotent defense.

Nothing burger here.... stupid media trying to create "drama"

I wish we had tried Jarvis at C this year I know Rod won't do it in the playoffs but we would have two high threat lines if he had I fully believe Jarvy is our future 1B center. I mean Guetzel-Jarvis-Necas Svechnikov-Aho-Turbo Switch the wings however honestly but that gets our best scoring forwards on the ice together.... Heck I think even putting Turbo at 2c like he did last year helps create two awesome scoring lines. Guentzel-Aho-Jarvis Svechnikov-Turbo-Necas (this wing pairing has created a ton of offense even with regular season KK) Having two lines that can score at anytime is huge. I've seen Rags fans saying "there is no spot on their roster were the Canes are better" just lol Our D core is much better we have more guys that can take over a game and more depth.... The only spots that are at worst less than a push are goalie (slight advantage NY) and 2C. Their reasoning is oh our guys had more points lol (it's like they can't math if Guentzel had a full year as a Cane he was pacing 140 points....) Not to mention Rods system (everyone being a full time 2 way player) artificially deflates our top guys point totals.... on anther team Aho is a 120P guy

True. But TDA and Pesces probably returning VS the Rags his huge for us.

This is all GREAT news....

I'm confident not cocky, the Canes up there physical game substantially in the playoffs... This will come down to 5 on 5 play.... the Canes were second in the NHL at 5 on 5 the rags were 23rd... We finally have a PP that can respond to the rags pp.

We are getting 5 days of rest anyways it's not gonna make much of a difference there big break either way, I just want to deny NY a Saturday game. I'd also agree but with both teams having a short series its already a bigger delay than for example the 3-1 loss to the Bruins.... I think they probably take game 1, a good chance we steal 2.... and hopefully hold serve at home.

I don't see it happening until at Sunday at the latest.... Preferably not until Monday f*g nhl revenue better for us that they don't get a weekend game.... I do really want to shut up their mouth breathing crowd and those Igor chants

The Hockey givest just as they take.

Jets eliminated

Our own PP won't be held to 9% this go round either.... I think the PK was a bit of an anomaly agaist the Isles...

May see Morrow.... not much experience but he may actually be better defensively. Would be good if Pesce came back too.

Told you not to sweat Now on to the real NY team CANES IN 6

The books are onto something. Yes in past years the Canes have had an awful power play.... Deff need possibly separate Guentzel and Aho. This is the year I believe I think we can beat the rags in 6.

It doesn't start foe a whole week so I doubt it's game 1

Lol saying that about a 4-1 series is kinda funny
