Carolina Hurricanes vs Boston Bruins ECF Game 1. 5/9 8pm

This should be a fantastic series. We have our work cut out for us against Boston. If the Canes can recapture their momentum and bring the same level of intensity that they brought in the first two rounds we've got a good chance. Its very important to flip home ice as everyone knows. Looks like were getting healthy. Ferland really needs to have some impact in this series. We really need him to be physical yet discipline.  Expect Staal to step up big.

Last game against Boston was a good game and a close loss when Faulk lost the puck behind his own net which led to the score. Lately Faulk has found his game however and I expect some retribution. Expect Svech to get tested physically maybe with some dirty plays. If he can overcome that and plays well...I think we will win.

Take Warning.

Let's go CANES!!!! 

 

Also McAvoy will probably be suspended game 1 for a hit from last series with cbj

Was able to listen to a little bit of NHL radio, the consensus sounds like 1 game. 

I haven’t seen the hit yet. Need to look it up. 

Just looked it up, honestly chara should be the one taking the suspension. He hooked him, then followed through with the butt of his stick after McAvoy left his feet. 

There was a lot of talk about that being a “Hockey Hit” on the radio. I call BS. He left his feet.

We are going to have to play fast against these guys.

This is a ugly dirty team...I hate we are playing them as they seem classless to me.  Much rather play the CBJ.  But we have upset both teams so far, hopefully we can keep the momentum going this round and keep injuries to a minimum.

Worse than Washington?

Boston and Washington are the two most physical teams I've seen in the playoffs.  I think this series will be similar to round 1, just without Ovechkin.  I think we certainly can win it, but it will be a tough series.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
