Carolina Hurricanes 2009-2010 Regular Season Thread

Yea we certainly did not look like we were ready for the season to begin. We did come on stronger and outshoot them in the 3rd period, and that is a little encouraging. Fortunately there are 81 more games to go!

'Canes are going to Boston tonight. Puck drops at 7:00 again. Should be a good game. Hope to see some adjustments made. We just need some bounces to go our way.

Are we really this bad?

We may be. There is plenty of time to turn this around this season, but it doesn't look promising. Someone needs to coach our D up. PLAY THE BODY. Physicality anyone?

Apparently defense is optional in Carolina sports.

If we are unable to match the physicality of teams then this is going to be a long season. We can not keep getting pushed around when we have the puck, and we can not allow them to skate the zone every time they have the puck. We gotta put someone on the ice.

It's game 2 and Pitkanen hasn't played yet. No need to panic just yet, it's a long season.

On another note, anyone heard anything about Cole's injury?

All I could find was this:

It says they kept him out as a precaution due to the lopsided score. The extent of the injury unknown.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
