Last Time Out: The Canes finally snapped a five-game winless streak on Saturday, earning a much-needed victory over the Calgary Flames. After enduring a streak of six consecutive games without a power play goal from November 12-23, the team recorded two goals on the man advantage for a second consecutive day in the contest. Including a late game-winner from Brett Pesce, it was second occasion of the campaign already where the team has produced two or more power play goals in back-to-back games. Antti Raanta, making his first start since suffering a lower-body earlier in the week, turned away 18 of 20 to record his fourth victory of the season.

Power Play Pesc: Carolina is now 4-0-0 all-time when Brett Pesce scores a power play goal. He has also earned a point on the man advantage in back-to-back games now and is already just one one point shy of matching his power play points total for the 2021-22 season.

Man Advantage Tex: Forward Stefan Noesen recorded an assist on Martin Necas' power play goal Saturday, also giving him a power play point in two consecutive games. His three goals on the man advantage this season have him tied with Necas and Andrei Svechnikov for the team lead.

500th Marty Party: Canes forward Jordan Martinook is expected to play in his 500th career NHL game tonight. He currently ranks tied for fifth on the team in points through 22 games. Drafted in the second round by Phoenix in 2012, he is set to become the 19th player from the draft class to reach the milestone.

Almost Turbo Time?: Forward Teuvo Teravainen traveled with the team to begin the first leg of their six-game road stint, inching closer to returning to the lineup. The 28-year-old winger suffered a non-concussion upper-body injury on November 10 in the team's win over Edmonton. After skating with Max Pacioretty prior to the team's practice last week, Teravainen returned to team practice Monday morning in a yellow non-contract jersey. Rod Brind'Amour said following the skate that he is hopeful #86 can play at some point on this trip.

On The Other Side: Pittsburgh enters tonight's bout as one of the hotter teams in the league, going 7-2-1 in their last 10. Forward Sidney Crosby leads the way with 29 points in 20 games on the year, including 12 points in his last six games. Forward Evgeni Malkin played in his 1,000th NHL game last Sunday against Chicago. Their 76 goals as a team ranks tied for seventh in the NHL.

CANES INJURY UPDATES

  • Forward Ondrej Kase has been in concussion protocol since October 13. There is currently no timetable for his return.
  • Goaltender Frederik Andersen suffered a lower-body injury on November 6. He skated with Goaltending Coach Paul Schonfelder Monday morning at Invisalign Arena. There is currently no timetable for his return.
  • Forward Teuvo Teravainen suffered an upper-body injury on November 10. He practiced with the team on Monday and is on the trip.
  • Forward Max Pacioretty suffered a torn Achilles tendon in August. He has been skating in recent weeks, but has yet to take part in a full team practice. There is currently no timetable for his return.

Lineup:

TT is out tonight and Coghlan is the healthy scratch as DeHaan continues to improve and get more comfortable in his role. Be nice to see the 4th line do something special tonight as the other 3 are gonna get a workout.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By dep · Posted

      Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4

      The ickey ekwonu question...

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.

      Evero and the pass rush

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
