I hope Rod tells the boys to treat this upcoming road trip like the playoffs...no let downs, no sleepwalking.  Give it all you have and leave it on the ice.....

The Lightning may be 5-5 in their last 10, but their the defending champs and the media darlings.  I hope ESPN and the like keep taking the Canes for granted.

They won't play down to the Lightning, that I have no doubt of.

Missed the game due to work. How did Ned look? Stats indicate he was sharp.

Didn't get a lot of work in the 1st. But, he came through with some grade A saves when we needed him later in the game. 

The one goal was a little soft, and he almost let in another immediately after. It seemed like he got a bit complacent after a boring 20 minutes. 

After that he was money. Stayed at home and controlled the rebounds.

Ned was on point. He did get one or two post assists. But he played solid throughout. The soft goal that everyone is blaming bean for is really a 50/50 on Ned in my opinion. Bean fugged it up originally and didn’t make the proper pass. He was gassed coming off a penalty kill(I think or a power play) one of the two. But Ned was out of position to make the save and left a wide open glove side on net.

After the goal it took Ned a dramatic fall on a puck that snuck through to get his zen back a minute or so later and was solid there after.

Paa and Slavin did save his ass a few times but it’s good to see our defense doing their job in back to back games. 
 

Ned was challenged both up close and from the blue line a lot last night and stood firm on both.
 

Bean has almost turned into a liability since Paa joined the roster but I think it’s cause he’s trying to emulate Paa when he should just be focusing on his style and letting the big Fin play rough.

Bean wants to get on the ice cream bandwagon..... "Vanilla Bean Supreme"  😂  Give me a triple scoop!

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
