I already had tickets to the game tonight when a friend called and offered their seats as they are in Greensboro for the ACC tournament. So, we've invited friends to have our seats and we will be sitting right behind Freddie Andersen's right shoulder on the glass behind net for the first and third periods. Going to arrive early and do some tailgating and catch up with friends.

-------------------------------------------------------

Last Time Out: The Canes had an atypical start Tuesday night in Montreal, struggling through the first 40 minutes. They had to overcome an early 2-0 deficit and an early injury to starting netminder Antti Raanta, but a quality third period allowed them to force overtime. After no winner was found in the team's league-leading 19th OT of the season, Jesperi Kotkaniemi earned the shootout winner in the sixth round against his former team.

Stay Hot, KK: Although his game-deciding tally doesn't count toward the total, Jesperi Kotkaniemi now has 13 points in his last 13 games. Now with 30 points on the season, he has surpassed last year's total of 29 and sits just four points shy of matching his career-high.

300!: Kotkaniemi will also be playing in his 300th NHL game. After playing his first 171 with Montreal, Wednesday will be his 129th game in a Canes sweater.

Puljujarvi's Debut Day?: After his potential team debut Tuesday in Montreal was nixed by a hold-up in the process of obtaining his work visa, Jesse Puljujarvi could be in the lineup in front of a home crowd. Standing at 6'4", 201 lbs., the right-handed shot was acquired last week from the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for unsigned prospect Patrik Puistola.

Get On Them Early: The Canes have scored first a league-leading 40 games this season. They're 32-4-4 when they score first, trailing only the Boston Bruins, who have 33 wins when scoring the game's opening tally.

From The Blue Line: Carolina's defensemen have produced a league-leading 42 goals through 62 games this season.

On The Other Side: Philadelphia comes to town 2-7-1 in their last 10 games. Over the last calendar month they've scored a total of just 24 goals in 12 games, the fewest goals-per-game average of any club in the NHL. The defensive side hasn't gone much better for the club, allowing 3.92 goals per contest. Only one team in the Eastern Conference (Buffalo) is giving up more.

Looks like no Pool Party, Chatfield, or Raanta. I kind of expected that after how well the fourth line played on Tuesday.

It’ll be Pyotr’s net, de Haan will likely draw in for Chatfield, and Coghlan will have his regular seat in the press box.

 

Not sure I'm liking this. His won-loss record notwithstanding, he's not been that good and he was terrible with the Canes before he went back to Chicago.

Ditto. He’s been way too unpredictable in the past few weeks. Maybe the wolves and canes thought letting Rod get a bit of control over him could help. His game suffers and if he hasn’t fixed that 5 hole issue yet he’s not going to last long in this league.

Hes a good goalie but his weakness are easy to figure out. Svech should take him under his wing and get him level again.

Playing the Flyers gives us a chance to see with the addition of Ghost, are we still a typical 3 goal scoring team or a 4-5 goal team? If we can’t score 4-5+ goals on the Flyers we could lose with kochetkov in net. But then again he could play lights out and surprise us with his big chance.

I run a certain number of home games for our company. Our tickets are also in 110! Won't be there tonight but have several upcoming games. 

Hell yeah. Once my knee heals up and I can get back to my seats you will have to give a fist bump on the way down to yours. 

 

btw. Handicap 107 level seats aren’t bad 🍺🍺

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      Well, he either plays well or we suck again and get the #1 pick and get our new QB for next year.  Im not stressing.

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      By rayzor · Posted

      the way it should be. the way it has to be.  when you get a rookie (no matter where he is drafted), you don't expect him to play like a vet or even get a grasp on NFL offenses like a vet. if you intend to have him running the offense, you build the offense around what they do and what clicks.  not Young's fault, but he was sold as someone who would be a rookie but has the mind of a seasoned vet. guess what...he wasn't. reich and "his" crew had no idea how to work with a rookie QB or groom one. they thought they knew, but they didn't and it was obvious in the lack of plan they had for him. their plan was to treat him like he was a seasoned vet. even with that, i don't think they had any clear vision not just with Bryce, but with the offense. There was no cohesion between all the various coaches. nothing fit together and reich wasn't a strong enough leader to pull it all together.  i like the approach of starting over with the fundamentals and i think it's good for any new coaching staff or new QB to a system. you don't know what to expect so you start from the beginning to make sure you're on the same page from the beginning. and as you get more used to each other, you learn what works, what could really work well, and what won't work and you form the playbook around that. contrast that with chud who had been working on a playbook for years and just wanted to use it regardless of whether the situation called for it or the personnel he had (on the team or even on the field) fit what he wanted to call.   or last year when we had coaches from completely different backgrounds trying to put something together that was supposed to be a blend of what each brought to the table, but just ended up being a sloppy predictable mess that didn't fit anyone on the team, QB, WRs, and OL.

      Least excitment before any season?

      By Johnstonny · Posted

      I've always been super pumped up for the upcoming season but I've never been so uninterested in a new season. After six years under Dipper I've been left at end of season drunken and wallowing in my own piss... not invested in the team right now but hope Canales and Morgan make a good team together...
