Last regular season game. Simple as this. Win tonight…metro is ours. NJ loses, metro is ours.  
 

Just win

Don't depend on my Devils to lose.

Canes should just focus on winning their game tonight against a Panthers team that is now going to go balls-to-the-wall in trying to avoid facing that absolute WAGON called the Boston Bruins in the first round.

So hopefully they don't make the mistake of thinking that just 'cause the Panthers clinched yesterday, that they have nothing to play for. 

This is going to be a pretty tough game.

Boston: 1-0-2 (4 pts in 3 games) (9 GF - 8 GA)

NY Islanders: 3-1 (6 pts in 4 games) (12 GF - 9 GA)

Florida: 1-1 (2 pts in 2 games) (4 GF - 3 GA)

NJ: 2-2 (4 pts in 4 games) (12 GF - 13 GA)

NY Rags: 1-3 (2 pts in 4 games) (9 GF - 15 GA)

Tampa Bay: 2-1 (4 pts in 3 games) (10 GF - 7 GA)

The Rags are the only team to take the Canes and beat them consistently. The goal differential is lopsided. Every other team on this list is just another game.

Oh, and if Andersen is in net tonight, this will tell you everything you need to know about the organization's approach to playoff hockey. 

Raanta is clearly the better of the 2 right now and with 5 days off after the game, he is the guy who "gives the team a better chance to win," to use an old Ron Rivera line. 

How do we believe anything but this game not being important if RBA goes with Andersen tonight?

while I understand that, it's also a chance for Rod to give Fred a chance to perform in a high pressure situation that realistically isn't the end of the run if it goes wrong. This is the first time we've had Fred healthy at this point and while I agree Raanta has been playing the best of our 3, he also completely loses it on the road so I want both guys fresh and with game action under their belt.  Will be interesting to see.

Rants for some reason can't perform nearly as well on the road. So I think it will be Anderson.

Most of those stats included Svech.

The Canes want to maintain 1st in the Metro and face the Islanders first round. Panthers don’t want to face Boston.

This game is equivalent to a playoff game and both teams will bring their best. 

Like I said for the NHL the entire East comes down to this game.

Like most of you I thought surely Rod has to put Raanta in net. But I looked at both Raanta’s and Freddie’s road records for this season on statmuse and to me it’s a mixed bag. Raanta had a lot of highs and lows GA. Freddie had a lot of 3 GA. Both had a lot of 2s. Then I looked at the two games against the Panthers, 0-3 away and 4-0 home Raanta in net for both.

So absolutely I ain’t gonna pick lol.

    • We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.
    • I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning. 
    • He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
