Harbingers

Got lucky as fug there. Horrible handling by Skjei there.

And they start the period with a powerplay... again.

Oh fug Staal has got some stitches in his face.

Ugh. Wasted Powerplay right there. Had them on the ropes for a nice chunk of time there.

Florida desperately trying to get that line off the ice... Breaks their own stick "On accident", delay of game penalty coming up.

Holy Poo Trocheck plays hard that dude is everywhere all the time.

That was an easy one for sure.

Fuggidty fug fug. Gotta stop giving up those face off goals. And gotta stop playing The Prodigy after the opponent scores at home. That should be saved for Canes goals only.

Which is weird because last season it was all game manager style hype coming from in camp.

That third period though.

Oh penalties this game.

That is soooooo Hurney if true.

Barkoff kneed Reimer in the face. Unintentionally it seems though.

At least the refs get boo'd with fans in the building now.

Oof. Reimer with the fair catch right there. Glad he caught it.

Oof horrible change right there. Reimer with the save though.

What is with these 2 second power play goals. Holy poo. Draw, Pass, Pass, Trocheck dunks.

Lotta effort for little affect.

Probably would have more if we weren't off sides half a dozen times due to bad passes.

Hopefully nothing broke.

With TT out again with Concussion symptoms oof.

Oh fug. Staal took a puck to the face point blank from our D's clearing attempt. Looks like upper jaw, Ear area.

Oops can't edit anymore but just had the thought, This was suppose to be Mrazek's target game to be back? No mention of that in the articles. Wonder if he had a set back or if the date was just on the optimistic side. Edit: found an update from yesterday I missed.
