I hope after Rod called out the officiating that we are fired up Sunday. I don't want to give then any momentum. 

Dunno if you got to see his interview but he said he didn’t tell his guys about his issues with the refs. But I think they are feeling it. Both teams are tired. The question is will the preds go Pekka. Rod basically nixed Slavin already but with Lajoie’s play last night I actually think that’s the least of our worries. I have no doubt we play Mrazek and honestly I think he’s  gonna be on point. If we can win Sunday and close this out in 5 that would be a huge win.

Yeah, I don't want this to stretch, especially with how Nashville is starting to lean goon on us.

Wow actually reversed a call for us. Sucks that the refs had to be called out in order to do their job right.

I doubt getting called out bothered them.  Game 3 gave Nashville a home win in front of their crowd, it means Carolina wont advance in Nashville and will most likely get to celebrate at home.

Thats just good TV scheduling bud.

celebrating at home or away doesn't really matter. It's been like this since the beginning of hockey playoffs.

Youre right in that it doesn't matter to the team.  They'd much rather have a sweep.  Bad officiating is extending series. Benefits somebody.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
