CHICAGO - The Carolina Hurricanes can extend their winning streak to six games when they rematch the Chicago Blackhawks to round out the first third of a six-game road swing.

The Last Meeting

Jordan Staal recorded a pair of assists while Andrei Svechnikov and Vincent Trocheck each tallied their team-leading fifth goals of the season in a 3-3 regulation draw with the Chicago Blackhawks. Extra hockey was required for the third time in the Canes' last four games, and a shootout then decided the final score for the second game in a row. James Reimer turned aside all three shots he faced, while Svechnikov netted the winning goal in the third round of the shootout, marking the Canes' eighth straight shootout win.

I think the Canes are going to show better effort this game. Im looking specifically for a better performance from the covid crew. Although I will say that we may not get the W if Reimer doesn't start at goal.  Nedelkovic looked really flaky when he was needed for a stretch last year after the EBUG game against Toronto.

Also as a side note its a interesting day of games in the central division with the Preds vs Panthers and CBJ vs Dallas.

Go Canes!

Ya, I'm interested to see how Rod shakes up the lines if at all since the slow start from the COVID crew.

    • I hated it when another kicker used 4 as well.  You have your opinion and I have mine.  
    • At this point in the offseason, unless/until there are some cap casualty cuts, pretty much any signing we're going to make will be JAGs. Which is fine, you can only upgrade so many starting spots in any given offseason with long term players, I think between FA and the draft we had a really good offseason, maybe our best in a long time.   Show a season of growth, particularly if Bryce can prove to be a long term solution and then next season we focus on a few more key signings, a couple DB's and LB's, with the possibility of an elite pass rusher pending how these young guys do this year and we have the makings of a solid playoff caliber team.
    • Well it's been used since him already, and sure, he's a Panthers legend, but he's still just a kicker and not a HOFer, so it's just not a number I'd want to see go un-used again, it's not 89, 90, 1, 59, or even 58 or 88, all numbers I think should be untouchable way before 4. I'd have said 4 is a dumb WR number 4 years ago too, but I've become so used to watching him in the number the last 3 years that it just fits for me now.  With his tall but slender frame, he needs to wear a single digit number or 11, I think anything else double digit would just look wide and wonky on him. Which really means it came down to 4, 5, or 11 if he wasn't going to try and pay for a number from someone else.  I could see the argument for 11, it would look good on him, but again, I'm so used to him in 4 that I now like how it looks on him, so I'm happy with it myself.
