"DALLAS - The third and final leg of a six-game road trip brings the Carolina Hurricanes to Dallas to face off against the Stars on back-to-back nights.


The Match-Up

Carolina Hurricanes (31-10-6, 68 points) at Dallas Stars (20-15-12, 52 points)

Monday, April 26, 7:30 p.m.

Watch: NBCSN

Listen: 99.9 FM The Fan, Hurricanes.com/Listen, Hurricanes app


Numbers to Know

600: Dougie Hamilton is set to play in his 600th career NHL game, and he'll become the 13th defenseman in franchise history to do so. Hamilton netted two goals against Florida on Saturday and has recorded 28 points (7g, 21a) in his last 28 games.

1: The Canes are a point away from clinching a berth in the 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs.


The Opposition

Last five games: 4-0-1, 9 points
At home: 12-6-8, 32 points
CAR vs. DAL: 5-1-0
Leading scorer: Joe Pavelski, 43 points (20g, 23a) in 47 games

The Stars are creeping up the standings in search of the fourth seed in the Central Division. After firing a season-high 52 shots on Jonathan Bernier, Dallas outlasted the Red Wings for a 2-1 overtime win on Saturday night to draw closer to Nashville in the standings. The Stars, who are 7-1-2 in their last 10 games, sit just two points out of fourth place with two games in hand on the Predators."

Wait I am super confused. Bean is out there? But all our normals + Ryan is too? I am so confused. 
 

Was Kenny Albert just messing names up? I could have sworn I saw 33 out there too. 
 

I guess we are rolling with 9 defensemen?

    • 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.
