Canes vs Canadians 7pm


 Share

Recommended Posts

Last Time Out: The Canes ran it up on the Arizona Coyotes on Friday in a 6-1 win, flew across the country on Saturday, and then did the same thing to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Sunday. This victory may have been even more impressive though, considering the standings and the three-time Eastern Conference Champions being held off the scoreboard as a whole, with 6-0 being the final. Teuvo Teravainen recorded his second career hat trick and Jesperi Kotkaniemi published a career-high five points in the victory.

A Ghost Has Appeared: After scoring a power-play goal in his debut with the team on Friday in Arizona, Shayne Gostisbehere followed his opening act with more of the same on Sunday. Registering another tally on the man advantage and adding two assists as well, the team's new #41 became the first defenseman in franchise history to score a power-play goal in both of his first two games with the team.

N3cas: Canes forward Martin Necas enters tonight riding back-to-back three-point performances. He now has 15 multi-point performances this season and he has now established a new single-season career-high with 22 power play points.

500 For Fish: Sebastian Aho is set to play in his 500th NHL game tonight.  He has registered 456 points (209g, 247a) in his Hurricanes career and trails only Ron Francis (1981-88: 183-386-569) for the most points by any player through his first 500 games with Hartford/Carolina.

Puljujarvi's Debut Possible: Newly acquired forward Jesse Puljujarvi could debut as soon as tonight for the Canes. Acquired last Tuesday from Edmonton in exchange for unsigned prospect Patrik Puistola, the 24-year-old winger had an appointment yesterday in Ottawa to resolve his visa issues before heading to Montreal to meet the team.

Thursday, February 16: Seth Jarvis records his first NHL hat trick as the Canes dominate Montreal on Cam Ward's Hall of Fame Night. With his dad in the building during the Father/Mentor Tour.

Forwards:

Svechnikov - Aho - Jarvis

Teravainen - Kotkaniemi - Necas

Martinook - Staal - Fast

Noesen - Stastny - Stepan

Defense:

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Gostisbehere - Chatfield

Goalies:

Raanta

Andersen

The only question is do the Canes healthy scratch Stepan and let the Pool man get some ice time? I doubt it as he arrived in Montreal just in time for the morning skate. Probably see him Thursday night at home against Philadelphia. It'll be much more welcoming and comfortable.

Has he figured out his visa yet? I know it says he has an appointment but that doesn’t mean it was resolved.

    • We could quibble about was that an answer to what I asked but I  don’t see it as being one. Look, he agreed to this Evero thing. Up front. Apparently anyway. Took the job with those conditions in place. I buy that and will work off of it.  This play calling issue isn’t the same thing. I am not in the mood to delve into Canales’ shortcomings and get out the pitchforks at the moment. I will abstain from that topic and stick to the quandary the dissenters who want to usurp his play calling power, find themselves in. As far as that goes I am still on the fence and think the play calling is Bryce centric and the play selection/playbook is affected. That does not mean I know that if the playbook was open he would be great play caller. Just that he is hampered right now.  Inserting an OC not of Canales’ approval changes the original parameters of the assumed agreement.  Unless you think Tepper placed a contractual prescription to allow Tepper to dictate that he can insert a play caller of his choosing after a time period if he is not satisfied with Canales’ work.  Which, do you really think that is in play?  I do not.    Unless it is, Canales has the option to yea or nay. As I said, it could be forced on him. But they only do that if they want him out.  And as of now his stock is up, I would have to say I don’t own any but I think it is up. He had the stadium rocking, the team in the playoffs, and has that sorry lil draft pick trending upward. Even at this very low rate.  I think he has ‘hand’ right now as they say on Seinfeld. This is something that may get play in the 2026 season, not now. IMO.     
    • Canes now have 19 losses on the year. Here is the truly alarming stat. 13 of those were multiple goal loses. 9 of those were 3 goal plus losses. This team is getting blown out more than any other year under Rod.     why?  Blue line is a total mess. It’s just no good with their combinations.  It pains me to say this, but they were mikes better with Burns and Orlov. They need Slavin so bad.  Health.  Size. The team is too small and has no physical play. Most forwards do not forecheck.  Worst under Rod.  Goalie play. Pretty average to sub par. PK is downright bad. It’s allowing a little over a goal a game. Worst under Rod.    Team will not win a playoff round under its current group of players. It’s not constructed to do so against heavy teams.      solutions.  Must get physical size by the trade deadline. Rod and Tulsky know this. That probably has to come with the 2C.  KKs size but a better scorer and meaner.  The need another physical winger.  Goalie. Either go all in on a top guy on a bad team or get average. Lastly, better defense. Need a Right shot heavy defenseman.  Yes that could mean someone’s favorite dman could sit. Looking at you Boom.    thats 3-4 new guys that must be brought in for them to have a chance at a cup.  And it’s all players that are different and better than what they have.  They have the cap. KK is gone. Add 4 mill back.    And then hope it’s jells unlike Mikko.
