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 hate to burst anyones bubble but this guy played 188 total defensive snaps in three years but 802 special teams snaps. If we do kick the tires, it's probably gonna be for that latter part.
    • I do believe that Evero gets canned before the end of the season and Capers takes over the D. I think the stage is set for Evero to fall on the sword for a 4-7 win season.  Not saying it would be a set up but I do think if that transpires, the seat under DC might start getting pretty warm, rightly or wrongly. That's my read on Tepper. I am not at all excited nor am I dreading anything. I just have extremely low expectations so I am just waiting to see what this revision of the roster looks like.  I FEEL like we are better on paper than last season's team but I wouldn't be remotely shocked if we were as bad or worse. Again, I do think this is the 2nd worst roster in franchise history overall. What will really make me happy is for some of the big questions to finally be answered(Bryce, Ikey, Horn, etc). I would like to see a real expansion of our core player pool(basically just D. Brown currently). I want to see a couple of hits in free agency and a couple in the draft. If we accomplish those things, I have faith that we are at least moving in the right direction after many, many years doing the opposite.  
    • Considering our depth. Certainly kick the tires.
