Not sure where we go from here.

Golfing apparently…

Going Comtois was some dumb ass poo. As was cutting Noesen’s minutes because of that and starting KK at fugging center. 
 

Like for real. 

I’d love to understand the reasoning with Comtois. If you wanted a goon, why wouldn’t you have Brendan Lemieux suit up?

Sudden death call your shooter. 

Jarvis

I just don’t understand why we had all 4 guys on the right side of the net. No one covered the net front. 

Let’s Go boys!

Not excited to watch Freddie again tonight. Coming back from 2-0 will be almost impossible against this team if we lose. Also, someone please lay into Trouba. 

I hear ya, but two years ago we were up 2-0 on the Rangers and they won game 7.  Last year the Rags were up 2-0 on the Devils we played NJ in the 2nd round.  I think we can still make a go of the series if we lose tonight, but I want to see Hurricanes hockey tonight.  We do that, and I think we'll be just fine. 

Cory gives me a PeeWee Herman find of vibe...

My concern would still be a concern had we won today. We have got to start playing 3 periods of hockey. We heard it coming out of the 1st round, and it popped up again today. We settle in and play start to finish we’ll be fine, but until we can show we can do it, I’m biting my nails a bit. Special teams can’t take a step back in the playoffs. 
 

Here’s to coming home with the series 1-1. I wouldn’t be surprised if we’ll have to win 2 in MSG to advance.

Does anyone know if Bally’s is still gonna do a pre-game/post-game show? I’d rather not have to listen to PK and Messier fawn over the rags. Wish we were on TNT/TBS. Really grown to like the TNT/TBS crew this playoffs, which is the opposite of last year. 

Sounded like no on the podcast. Willis will be doing some stuff on WRAL. 

Shane Willis got me fired up listening to the Canes Cast podcast. He likes the Rangers as much as we do.

Lets Go Canes!

Umm, that’s not a trip, and that’s not embellishment. The dude just fell down. The fug refs. 

I wish the NHL would make a rule that says if a foul is called, that penalty negates embellishment.  To me at least, it seems like its either one or the other, but not both.

I’d rather Tom start a AHL team in NC/SC but Chicago is the safer $$$ bet. 

I still don’t understand why the Checkers didn’t work out. It seemed like a no-brainer. I used to love going to the games in Charlotte and watching our prospects, but I haven’t been since the affiliation change. 

Great 3rd period, now let’s take care of business against the Rags. I really hate those guys. 

Point, set, and match. 
 

Get ‘em Freddie!

We’re a post away from this being 4-0…

And a little tighter defensive play…

Carolina Hurricanes GOOOOOOOOOAL!  

Mr. Svechnikov!
