"After dropping consecutive games in double overtime, the Carolina Hurricanes return home looking to regain their First Round series advantage against the Nashville Predators.


Game 5

Series tied 2-2

Tuesday, May 25, 8 p.m.

Watch: Bally Sports South, Bally Sports app, CNBC

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

Numbers to Know

1: Games 3 and 4 marked the first time in franchise history that the Canes played multi-overtime postseason games. Game 4 surpassed Game 3 as the second-longest playoff game in franchise history.

13: McGinn's second goal of Game 4, scored 13 seconds into the third period, is the fastest goal from the start of a period in franchise postseason history.

3: Jaccob Slavin has missed the last three games with a lower-body injury, and his status remains a game-time decision for Game 5.

"I'm hopeful he'll try tomorrow," head coach Rod Brind'Amour said on Monday. "He'll tell us when he feels good.""

I'll start a GoFundMe account if that's what it takes to get Hamilton to play some fugging defense tonite and show us all why he should remain the head blue-liner on this team.

But, in the end, you know what? I'm good with Slavin, Pesce, Skjei, Hakanpaa. Bean needs some work and we can find another defenseman or 2 for the amount of money Dougie wants.

I'm as big of a Ned fan as there is but asking for 5 in a row with 2 being 2OT games is asking a lot. I know he'll give it everything but man, that's a lot to put on him. But I also don't trust Reims and not sure Petr is 100%. 

Rod trying to makeup the difference in games for Ned in the Vezina race...

Only thing I got.

I think Mraz would crush this series. But they want to give Ned the head to head vs. Saros.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      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.
