Good point, Canes/Devils should be all about speed.

Yep. We have to stay disciplined on our forecheck. If we do what the Rangers did and give the Devils 15+ odd man rushes, we will lose.

I don't mind physicality, but when you have cheap shot artists like Trouba, it's just annoying. Somebody just needs to take a stick and slash Trouba's knees as hard as possible

Yeah, looking forward to hearing from announcers who know dick about the Canes.

Well, the good news is they don't know dick about the Devils either probably. I am going to guess all of the talk will be about Schmid, which is fair enough since the dude had a hell of a series for against the Rags

there is the trouba concussion we have been waiting for

Looks like he finished the game? He was able to hold his head from snapping on the ice from what I saw. Broken/cut nose and definitely some upper body soreness at the very least.

Glad the Devils and Panthers took out the garbage.

It's going to be a tough series against NJ, they are fast.  We can only hope the defense tamps down and we stay aware on the ice so they don't get so many odd man rushes, the Rags got opened up like a can of peaches last night.

Hopefully Andersen and Raanta play as well as they did in the first round as well. 

Let's see if we can go one round further this year, but with the injuries I have realistic expectations.

If it wasn't for Boston there'd be a lot more talk about this sh*tty team failing in the 1st round
 

I'm loving every moment of this.   🤣🤣🤣🤣

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
