Well played all around except for the unnecessary penalties (all of them tonight were avoidable). Good game.

Expect to see Raanta Saturday against Columbus.

Yeah makes sense to get him a look and rest Freddy up for the battle of former goalies vs Toronto. 

Actually, apparently Mrazek is injured, that blows.

Honestly, I’d ride the hot hand vs. Columbus. Since we’ve had the rest. They are more potent than Toronto at this point in offense.

Side note, much, MUCH better defensemen this year.

Agreed. They're hitting when they need to and haven't drawn a bunch of stupid penalties trying to be tough guys. I honestly thought this could be an issue with Cole and TDA.

Aside from a couple times when Cole and Skjei got caught way deep in the offensive zone and Montreal had a couple odd man breaks, they're getting opportunities to shoot. They also look pretty good playing net front D. As a group, I'm pretty damn satisfied.

Question, though. What happens with Gardiner when he's healthy? He's carrying a $4M salary thru next season and, I gotta be honest here, I don't miss him and I think this team is really okay without him.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      By Stumpy · Posted

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
