Last regular season game. Simple as this. Win tonight…metro is ours. NJ loses, metro is ours.  
 

Just win

Don't depend on my Devils to lose.

Canes should just focus on winning their game tonight against a Panthers team that is now going to go balls-to-the-wall in trying to avoid facing that absolute WAGON called the Boston Bruins in the first round.

So hopefully they don't make the mistake of thinking that just 'cause the Panthers clinched yesterday, that they have nothing to play for. 

This is going to be a pretty tough game.

Boston: 1-0-2 (4 pts in 3 games) (9 GF - 8 GA)

NY Islanders: 3-1 (6 pts in 4 games) (12 GF - 9 GA)

Florida: 1-1 (2 pts in 2 games) (4 GF - 3 GA)

NJ: 2-2 (4 pts in 4 games) (12 GF - 13 GA)

NY Rags: 1-3 (2 pts in 4 games) (9 GF - 15 GA)

Tampa Bay: 2-1 (4 pts in 3 games) (10 GF - 7 GA)

The Rags are the only team to take the Canes and beat them consistently. The goal differential is lopsided. Every other team on this list is just another game.

Oh, and if Andersen is in net tonight, this will tell you everything you need to know about the organization's approach to playoff hockey. 

Raanta is clearly the better of the 2 right now and with 5 days off after the game, he is the guy who "gives the team a better chance to win," to use an old Ron Rivera line. 

How do we believe anything but this game not being important if RBA goes with Andersen tonight?

while I understand that, it's also a chance for Rod to give Fred a chance to perform in a high pressure situation that realistically isn't the end of the run if it goes wrong. This is the first time we've had Fred healthy at this point and while I agree Raanta has been playing the best of our 3, he also completely loses it on the road so I want both guys fresh and with game action under their belt.  Will be interesting to see.

Rants for some reason can't perform nearly as well on the road. So I think it will be Anderson.

Most of those stats included Svech.

The Canes want to maintain 1st in the Metro and face the Islanders first round. Panthers don’t want to face Boston.

This game is equivalent to a playoff game and both teams will bring their best. 

Like I said for the NHL the entire East comes down to this game.

Like most of you I thought surely Rod has to put Raanta in net. But I looked at both Raanta’s and Freddie’s road records for this season on statmuse and to me it’s a mixed bag. Raanta had a lot of highs and lows GA. Freddie had a lot of 3 GA. Both had a lot of 2s. Then I looked at the two games against the Panthers, 0-3 away and 4-0 home Raanta in net for both.

So absolutely I ain’t gonna pick lol.

      Down With The Devils: Series Wrap-up

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
