A solid 50 minutes of outstanding hockey. The first half of the 3rd period was pretty loose, but the rest was exceptional hockey.

Yeah... he had 3 when I posted.... right before that bum #19 scored... again....lol JK

First game in a while I've been able to watch without many distractions.

Just need that final piece- #74- to get back on the ice.

That's why I have a #5 jersey. Have a blank red jersey that I haven't decided to go with #50 or #21.

Exactly... who flipped that switch.

Svech has 3 points... Miller should be traded during the intermission.

Svech might get one tonight the way he's going.

And a 24 assist.

What constitutes a covered puck?

Guess you didn't read the article.

Yep. Worst trade ever. Bum. At least, that's what I hear.....

Tulsky initiated the trade, not Rantaanen.

Maybe not, but all the reasons mentioned in the article he speaks about are legitimate.

Where has this puck movement been the last 3 months?

He never said he didn't want to be here. Believe what you want, but it's an assumption not really based in fact. But, whatever works for you. On one hand you're criticizing the FO for not getting long term deals agreed upon before the trade is made, and, at the same time criticizing the player for supposedly not wanting to be here.

Another blender-blue line. And Jarvy coming back on the checking line. Really?

Rantaanen didn't do anything wrong. He didn't ask for a trade in the first place, and he didn't ask to be traded from Carolina. He's not dragged the organization and has not been anything less than a professional hockey player. https://apnews.com/article/mikko-rantanen-stars-hurricanes-6c9e2098163c6bb303b40fa8455424bd But, I expect he will not receive a warm welcome because most fans don't know the whole story nor do they understand the business.

Will/can the Canes keep him? He's an RFA, and barring a QO from another team, he'll likely stay. But it does beg the question, how hard will Carolina fight to keep him if someone else is interested? And, as with a few other past experiences, does he want to stay?

What little I saw of last night's game and all of tonight's, the bad officiating has shown up again. Certainly a few embellishments and a couple of BS penalties that just didn't happen.

And Miller has had back-to-back excellent games. I was waiting for you to make sure we knew that... lol

Need an insurance goal before NJ goes 6 on 5.

Is Hughes on hat trick watch for the Canes? Could he be first star if they win?

Who is Philip in for tonight? Nevermind.

Noesen was the best net front guy the Canes had in several years. And he was not afraid to fet physical. I always thought they should have kept him & Skjei.
