Well Im happy he is a Hurricane..lol

The "i'm surprised he played that well" player is Chatfield for me.

I think Burns is using a 7 foot stick.

I feel like the first period the Canes were just screwing around then said ok.. let's get after it.

If he becomes a serious scoring threat that would be huge for the Canes.

I'm not one to complain alot ..just with the puck moving, camera following it, players moving then you have the advertisements moving sometimes in the opposite direction.

It is extremely distracting.

ok..thanks

Am I the only one that finds the advertisements constantly changing on the boards annoying as heck?

I'm fairly new here so what is the deal with the pie thingy?

If I was going to the mall to buy a defense men.. just using the eye test Burns would be the choice.. tall dude, no teeth, beard.. just looks the part anyway... I have a feeling he will have a good year.

Thanks.. I know last year it seems he played well when with the team.. I expected him to be on the 4th line this year.

So for those that know hockey, what is the deal with Jack Drury? Why is he not on the team?

Thanks.. I have been to a couple of games over the years. Saw the Canes beat Washington I think maybe 10 years ago. I have told folks it is the biggest difference in being in person vs the TV of any sports event I have been to.

I can understand that. It seems after the Stanley Cup Finals they take 2 weeks off and open training camp. I realize it's longer but it seems almost year round to me for some reason.

Sorry I didnt mean to sound like they couldnt score but 2.. was saying they were built around great goaltending and great defense rather than wide open hockey. Maybe Im wrong on that.

Avs have scored 6 with 13 minutes to go in the second.

ok. I feel like the Canes are built to score 2 and win 2-0 or 2-1 so great goaltender and solid defense is the key. I watch other teams it seems they clearly have a top line and really good 2nd line. Canes seem to have solid 4 lines but not one really good one. Is that fair to say?

Before Anderson got hurt I was like wow this guy is really good and feel like the Canes would have made the finals with him in net. One thing I noticed, few months ago he was named the first star and was interviewed after the game, crowd was chanting his name and all but he looked uninterested. Is that just his demeanor?

Ok.. just seemed odd to me. I would think you would want to be out there in the playoffs if at all possible. Is he someone you can trust mentally for next year?

Thanks. Tough ending to the season. Hoping they could hold on till Anderson returned but just wasnt meant to be. What I read he was cleared but didnt feel ready to play.. is that normal for most players?

Long time Cane fan but not real hockey smart if that makes sense. Read the site for a while, decided to join after the season was over since there was not much I could add to the conversation. Hope I don't look too stupid in asking some questions regarding the Canes and hockey in general.
