Recommended Posts

"FORT LAUDERDALE - After claiming three of a possible four points in Tampa, the Carolina Hurricanes are set to square off against the Florida Panthers to defend first place in the Central Division.


The Match-Up

Carolina Hurricanes (30-10-5, 65 points) at Florida Panthers (30-12-5, 65 points)

Thursday, April 22, 7 p.m.

Watch: Bally Sports South, FOX Sports GO

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


Numbers to Know

6: Vincent Trocheck, who has recorded at least a point in 16 of his last 18 games (8g, 14a), has scored in all six games against the Panthers this season.

2016: After Jake Gardiner sparred with Alex Killorn on April 19, Jordan Martinook's fight against Barclay Goodrow the next night marked the first time the Canes have been assessed fighting majors on consecutive nights since Jan. 8-9, 2016 when Brad Malone dropped the gloves against Bradon Dubsinsky and Jared Boll of the Columbus Blue Jackets.


The Opposition

Last five games: 4-0-1, 9 points
At home: 16-4-3, 35 points
CAR vs. FLA: 5-0-1
Leading scorer: Jonathan Huberdeau, 49 points (16g, 33a) in 47 games

The Panthers enter this game having won three straight and four of their last five games (4-0-1). Spencer Knight turned aside 33 of 34 shots in his NHL debut, backstopping the Panthers to a 5-1 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday. Florida owns the same number of points in the standings as the Canes (65), but they've played two more games."

Lot to unpack here heading into our final two with Florida. They've been winning since they faced us in Raleigh. Looks like Bean has drawn Rods ire as he's a healthy scratch and we are bringing up Ryan.

The Ryan move is an odd one. Maybe they just want to see what he has before the playoffs in case of injuries. IDK

Could be but there are better teams to do it against. It‘s pretty clear bean is in the dog house after that soft goal against and the PIM time his past two games.

    • Nah I wanna see these NFL evaluators talking about his prospects at WR aren't good because I would LOVE to see thier explanations 
    • You do realize that raw stats don't make someone a better or worse player, right? To begin with, the last time I checked, 1,319 is more yards than 1,258, so T-Mac had more yards (but I'll forgive you as a typo there and say you meant catches lol), but that's before even factoring in that Hunter did his in 13 games vs 12 for T-Mac because Arizona didn't make a bowl game. It's also completely ignoring the team around each player.  If you think Hunter having the 8th place finisher in the Heisman voting at QB isn't going to result in helping his top WRs stats, then you're sticking your head in the sand to purposefully not see it. Hunter's QB had 353 completions for 4,134 yards and 37 TDs vs T-Mac's QB who had 260 completions for 2,958 yards and 18 TDs. But sure, let's rank NFL prospects by their stats and say the guy with more catches and TDs is the better prospect.  So on that note, I now change my mind, T-Mac is no longer the best WR in the draft, it's Nick Nash who had 104 rec, 1,382 yards, and 16 TDs, all numbers better than Hunter's... because that's how this is done, right? As I've said before, if someone wants to like a player better than someone else that's totally fair, but come with real reasons, talk about their play, but to talk about things like stats as your reasoning, when you ignore the obvious and massive flaws in using those stats in that way, just makes you look dumb.
    • Nah you don't go out and put up the numbers he did without being able to run routes dude is a football junky so he works on his craft he isn’t THAT much more athletic than other players to just be able to go out and do whatever and succeed at that level
