"Winners of five games in a row, the Carolina Hurricanes begin a two-game set against the Nashville Predators.


The Match-Up

Nashville Predators (11-14-0, 22 points) vs. Carolina Hurricanes (17-6-1, 35 points)

Tuesday, March 9, 7 p.m.

Watch: FOX Sports Carolinas, FOX Sports GO

Listen: 99.9 FM The Fan, Hurricanes.com/Listen, Hurricanes app

35: The Canes have amassed their best record (17-6-1) and most points (35) through 24 games in franchise history.

9: The Canes have won nine of their last 10 games against the Predators and are 13-3-1 in the last 17 games between the last two teams.

The Opposition

Last five games: 2-3-0, 6 points
On the road: 4-7-0, 8 points
CAR vs. NSH: 2-0-0
Leading scorer: Filip Forsberg, 26 points (10g, 16a) in 25 games

Since these two teams met in Nashville a week ago, the Predators lost consecutive games at home to the Florida Panthers before hitting the road and claiming a 4-3 shootout win over the Dallas Stars. That wasn't without its drama, though. The Stars scored three goals in 6:33 late in regulation to erase a 3-0 deficit, but Pekka Rinne, Filip Forsberg and Roman Josi helped the Preds recover in the shootout."

Goalies

Reimer

Injuries: Gardiner (upper body), Mrazek (right thumb), Teravainen (concussion symptoms)

TT sounds like he's going to be a bit longer with how Rod was talking, no update on Mrazek that I caught. Gardiner dealing with this lingering back issue. So Back to Fleury/Bean Kinda wish Rod would put Necas back up with Aho though. Ned gets the start.

Ned has been playing lights out.  Svech is out of his drought. Aho, Nino, Necas and Staal are all on fire. Made it through the crucible of our schedule in great position. And, finally got a little rest. 

I feel a storm coming...

Even predators run from hurricanes. We're a force of nature. 

Let's go y'all!

      Thanksgiving Games

      Kraven has awful shitty comic book movie vibes all over it. It's just more of whatever studio owns the rights to the Spiderman set, but no longer actually has Spiderman anymore. Wicked is probably no more enjoyable. 3 hour long musicals are tough to endure.

      One of those guys who throws a pass that makes you yell "OMG" then immediately follows it with one that makes you go "WTF" 😳 Essentially the Brett Favre prototype...

      Panthers vs Bucs matchup

      By mav1234 · Posted

      The Giants games are an interesting comparison for sure. We could compare the Chiefs vs the Bucs as well, since at least both teams are largely the same as they are now, rather than the Giants whose coach lost his mind after losing to us. 30-24 KC in overtime. Hunt had 106 yards and Mahomes had 291. Baker threw for 200 yards, but 2 TDs. Their leading rusher had 25 yards or something. Our offense outperformed what the Bucs did vs KC, but being a division game we won't have the benefit of being overlooked. If our D plays how it did in the 4th quarter I think we can get some stops.  Can Bryce carry a second game? I'd rather not find out and have Chuba carry the load, but we'll see.
