Canes won't win anything if they can't grind out a win against a top tier team. This is really embarrassing.

This will be a rough loss if we can't get one here. Played well enough to win.

Having flash backs to Boston last year. At least we are getting fugging shots this time.

The chances have been there all game long, just haven't been going in.

[Harbingers]

This ain't for a lack of good shots for sure. But their goalies are just getting the perfect bounce. He wasn't even looking at that last shot.

[kungfoodude]

That was pathetic.

[zacka77ack]

Absolutely awful hockey. Bring back the Taxi Squad players.

[Harbingers]

1-3 this series. Not opportune. Not a fan of those mixed lines there when we we're trying to make a push. 3-2 TB overall this year.

We won't see them for a while. When we do I expect a serious Vengeance.

Canes played a much better game than the last two lackluster efforts, but it didn’t change the outcome.  Pity.  Curtis Mc was solid.

I miss Mack.

Still think we should've started him in that playoff series against BOS 2 years ago.

Ditto.

I again missed most of the game while I was in class (Zoom) last night, but here's my take:

The Canes allowed 22 shots on goal (6-8-8), which means they were playing their brand of D that worked for them in previous wins. You should expect to win if your goalie is only seeing that may shots per game, and Carolina's record when they only give up that may shots is pretty good.

James Reimer is currently ranked 49th in the league with a 2.99 GAA. Sorry, but that sucks. He should feel very fortunate that he has an 8-3 record because the rest of the team has bailed him out. Think about it- if you're giving up 3 goals a game, that means you need to score 4 goals a game to win and there isn't a goalie in the league giving up 4 a game. So, you tell me how you're going to win with James Reimer in net? His 2.99 GAA is far more consistent than the Canes 3.26 GPA, which is trending down.

I said we couldn't ride Reims and Ned just isn't ready.  I guess Mrazek will be back sooner than I thought, but man I hope we are talking to the Coyotes about Keumper.
