"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.

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.

We’ll we are already going to have a week at least unless the NHL decides to start the US playoffs before Canada.

Fug tro just took a stick to the face.

No energy. Failing to show up on national TV again.

Missed that one.

Wait I am super confused. Bean is out there? But all our normals + Ryan is too? I am so confused. Was Kenny Albert just messing names up? I could have sworn I saw 33 out there too. I guess we are rolling with 9 defensemen?

So much nicer not having that gigantic bar at the bottom of the screen. But Kenny Albert is even slower than Mike.

Gonna be a long evening.

Oh its Kenny Albert on the call.
