So what we thinking, this thing starts on Wednesday?

I think so… if the west doesn’t take until Tuesday. If the west takes until Tuesday I think they will start Friday.

Jesper Fast: Swedish Army Knife

"The Swede is now tied for the team lead in goals with five and those have all come in different ways and different scenarios. Fast has scored shorthanded, at even-strength, into an empty net, once in overtime before, and now on the power play, in overtime, to clinch a series.

Even outside of the goals, the defensive winger has stayed true to his roots.

Fast still had a job to do, namely erasing New Jersey’s top player, and he was damn good at it throughout the series, helping to make Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier non-factors for the majority of games."

Growth For The Moment

But in spite of that, Jarvis has flourished when the team has needed him most, with four goals and eight points in 10 games this postseason.

“I think you see that a lot of the best goal scorers are able to kind of get lost in the offensive zone and kind of jump into a hole and stuff like that, so I’ve been working with Sergei Samsonov and the team a lot on video and stuff like that,” Jarvis said. “Just finding ways to almost reinvent my game and add those different layers and not just be a guy that skates 100mph down the side and just drives to the net every time.”

Jarvis’ scoring touch couldn’t have come at a better moment for his team, as he and Aho have combined to lead a difference making top line for the Hurricanes.

It’s going to be interesting if we reunite our lines so he’s with Staal Vs. The nat and Tcasshole. He was able to open up since he wasn’t on the Staal line last series, but we may need our 

back together for this series. At least at home.

The lines RBA built for the NJ series were instrumental in the scoring surge. Not sure it was intended that way, but a defensive approach to creating those lines resulted in a type of offense we hadn't seen the last month of the season.

That was a good, heads up pertaining to Jarvis.

A couple of things really stood out to me. Jarvy gets a, well deserved, rep as a goofball, annoying little brother. But, he is also a cerebral student of the game. Even if the Rat Marchand talk made me wanna hurl, it shows a desire to be great that a lot of men his age don't have yet.

Hopefully Jarvis can find his game in this series. He’s tied to Aho. Who by nature is a very defensive forward. He’d be putting up numbers on the KK line, but the fact he wants to learn 2 way with the top says worlds about him. Damn I miss svech and TT. Gotta give Aho his line.

Saw a story online that the Canes are restricting ticket sales to people with zip codes in NC, SC, and part of VA. After FL wouldn't allow sales to Canadian folks.

I expect Florida to do the same.

If he’s back. Which I don’t know if that will happen for another week at least. I wonder how they will rejigger the lines. TT on One Noesen on three drury on four if they keep the same base lineup from round 2? I assume Aho V. Barkov and Staal V. Bennett at least at home.

I’d kinda like to see an Each - Stas - Drury 4. Bring some speed against the aging 4th of Florida.
