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.

    • Also hit the over.  Banking on Man City running up the score and Leeds getting a lucky strike.   
    • Tailed you.  Also Free Play, which is why the risk shows $0.00. Let me look at hoops and get back to you.  Always fade Hubert, haha. 
    • Hard to say right now, but good thinking.  I look at this as the info we need for free agency.  Looks like we are going to free up about $10m so far; watch to see if any contracts (Moehrig, Horn, Brown, etc) are reworked the first week of March.  Then after free agency, we will have a pretty good idea. Right now, to be fair to your question because I am sure you are aware of its timing: In free agency, I see us adding an OT of some sort and drafting one at some point.  It all depends on how they view Ickey, Nijman, and maybe BC.  That OT could be Nijman.  I do not see the future OT--just a stop gap. I see the Panthers signing a free-agent center.  I think the market is strong.  I see Fortner from the Saints as a prime candidate and his salary is estimated at $6m by Spotrac.  the Saints are $42m over the cap, so I doubt they are able to re-sign many of their own.  He will be 28.  I also expect them to re-sign Corbett (depth) at a vet min ($1.5m) deal. I also see free agency as a strong area to get a free safety who can play and is under age 30.  Hawkins, Cook, and Bryant are all around age 27-28, play at a high level, and should be had for about $15m per. EDGE: Arnold Ebiketie is a good value because he gets pressure at a high percentage.  He had 2 sacks and Atlanta just drafted 2 pass rushers last year.   He has a 70+ PFF rating and will (Spotrac) demand about $9m.  While he is not the answer, he is a great third down option with Princely and he would allow for Jones, Scourton, and Princely to develop.
