Carolina Hurricanes vs Boston Bruins ECF Game 1. 5/9 8pm

This should be a fantastic series. We have our work cut out for us against Boston. If the Canes can recapture their momentum and bring the same level of intensity that they brought in the first two rounds we've got a good chance. Its very important to flip home ice as everyone knows. Looks like were getting healthy. Ferland really needs to have some impact in this series. We really need him to be physical yet discipline.  Expect Staal to step up big.

Last game against Boston was a good game and a close loss when Faulk lost the puck behind his own net which led to the score. Lately Faulk has found his game however and I expect some retribution. Expect Svech to get tested physically maybe with some dirty plays. If he can overcome that and plays well...I think we will win.

Take Warning.

Let's go CANES!!!! 

 

Also McAvoy will probably be suspended game 1 for a hit from last series with cbj

Was able to listen to a little bit of NHL radio, the consensus sounds like 1 game. 

I haven’t seen the hit yet. Need to look it up. 

Just looked it up, honestly chara should be the one taking the suspension. He hooked him, then followed through with the butt of his stick after McAvoy left his feet. 

There was a lot of talk about that being a “Hockey Hit” on the radio. I call BS. He left his feet.

We are going to have to play fast against these guys.

This is a ugly dirty team...I hate we are playing them as they seem classless to me.  Much rather play the CBJ.  But we have upset both teams so far, hopefully we can keep the momentum going this round and keep injuries to a minimum.

Worse than Washington?

Boston and Washington are the two most physical teams I've seen in the playoffs.  I think this series will be similar to round 1, just without Ovechkin.  I think we certainly can win it, but it will be a tough series.

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
