Fake as fug.

He's still in prime position to pick fields or lance though. Or are they just that bad?

Lets get 2 points and say goodbye to these fuggers. Though maybe no Fast according to Rod.

Oops ya, may 19th*.

Don't forget the north will be playing until the 19th of march so unless the NHL decides to start US playoffs before Canada we'll have nearly 9 days off.

Nah, id just like to see them lose.

Florida and TB with identical 7-4 wins. Blah.

Canes only.

Oh my.

Bean up there with Pesce. I think this is his redemption chance.

welp at you have something to look forward to.

"DALLAS - Less than 24 hours after punching their return ticket to the postseason, the Carolina Hurricanes aim to inch closer to locking up first place in the Central Division in a rematch against the Dallas Stars. The Match-Up Carolina Hurricanes (31-10-7, 69 points) at Dallas Stars (21-15-12, 54 points) Tuesday, April 27, 8:30 p.m. Watch: Bally Sports South, Bally Sports app Listen: 99.9 FM The Fan, Hurricanes.com/Listen, Hurricanes app Numbers to Know 7: The Canes have garnered seven of a possible 10 points on this road trip, with a chance to bring home 9 of 12, all while playing with an injury-riddled lineup. 2: Morgan Geekie recorded a pair of primary assists on Monday night, his first career multi-assist game in the NHL. 7: In seven games with the Canes, Hakanpaa now has more goals (2) than he did in his first 47 games in the NHL with Anaheim (1)." https://www.nhl.com/hurricanes/news/gameday-preview-carolina-hurricanes-dallas-stars/c-324070238 https://www.nhl.com/hurricanes/news/projected-lineup-carolina-hurricanes-dallas-stars/c-324079112 "Here is the projected lineup for the Hurricanes.

At most maybe Fast back. But I’m gonna bet that’ll probably be at our first home game after this stretch and someone else probably getting a “rest”.

I don’t think anyone quoted it on twitter but Rod basically came out and said if we were still fighting for a playoff spot most of our injured would be playing right now in today’s pregame presser.

That’s why we need the 1 seed. I feel like Florida stands the best chance against Tampa in the first round. Though they have looked not all that sharp in reality. I think with us getting a point and Florida on the verge of a loss we still sit with a two game lead on control of our destiny.

Tried to get too fancy. Had so many chances to shoot. No idea why we were trying to take that to a shootout.

The key factor why I think they didn’t call a penalty is the fact Paa’s stick arm was in front of the Dallas player.

That was boarding by Robertson on Svech. He saw numbers and cross checked him.

Would be awesome to see some production from anyone on line 1-2. Nino and Tro have had droughts. It’s time they fix it.

Gardiner our of place, reimer with the slow.

Heady play by Slavin right there.
