Welcome to the NHL Buzz. Throughout the 2021-22 season, NHL.com will have you covered with the latest news.

 

Carolina Hurricanes

Frederik Andersen is doubtful to play for the Carolina Hurricanes against the New York Rangers during the Eastern Conference Second Round.

The goalie has not played since sustaining a lower-body injury April 16. Andersen has not practiced during the Stanley Cup Playoffs, but Carolina coach Rod Brind'Amour said he was hopeful Andersen could play at some point in the postseason.

The Hurricanes will host Game 1 of the best-of-7 series against the Rangers at PNC Arena on Wednesday (7 p.m. ET; ESPN, SNE, SNO, SNP, TVAS).

"I would hope so, especially if we can move on," Brind'Amour said. "Until he gets out there with us, you might as well stop asking me."

Antti Raanta had a 2.37 goals-against average and .927 save percentage in six first-round games against the Boston Bruins, including 27 saves in a 3-2 win in Game 7 on Saturday. He missed Game 3 because of an upper-body injury.

"[Raanta] is the guy," Brind'Amour said. "Until 'Freddy' even touches the ice, it's not even a conversation. Antti obviously has been great."
 

 

looks like Raants is our guy again. Let’s go!

I don't think we need him vs the Rangers but we will vs Tampa

I'm not sure about that. With Anderson out the Rangers have by far the best Goalie in the league. We can't give up 3 every game and hope to win.

Igor has been boarderline trash in round 1. We worked him last time we played him. Goalies don’t play other goalies. Raanta will be just fine.

If we pelt Shesterkin with shots then we’ll be fine.

Raanta’a been solid, he has a .927 sv% through the first round and has been elite at home.

Kreider had an outlier season this year, the Rangers are another one line team without the same level of consistency or defensive play from sold line as the Bruins.... they have little depth Shesterkin has not settled in to playoff hockey he was out of position so many times in game 7 agaist the pens he had to have a rabbit's foot up his butt not to give up 8 or 9.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
