Predictions before this game. Where the Canes ending up this season?

Me personally? I think we end the season in the 2nd round. Offseason was meh in the grand scheme. We need scorers and we just don't have enough consistent ones. Also, please move on from Raanta and get the boy Pyotr as the backup goalie by now for Christ sake.

Blue line is stronger and we have more scoring going into the season than we did last year. If younger players take another step in their progression IE. Jarvis, Necas, KK, Svech comes back stronger and Tuevo has a bounce back year, we will be more than okay. Burns, Orlov, and TDA are scoring machines on the BL.

Who was available that you wanted to trade for or sign?

I wanted them to make the trade for Marner in the offseason. That was the rumor and it didn't happen.

Thinking these guys take another step is what I've thought they would do for a while. They haven't. Necas took a step last year, but he still sucked in the Playoffs.  Don't get me started on Svech. That man went 20 full games last year without scoring a goal before he tore his ACL. It's past time he became a superstar. 

Again. The past 4 years have shown us, unless you have that go to guy scoring, you're not going to go far in the Offs. This team has been the number 1 defensive team for a while now, and what has that got us? It's past time to try to find that go to guy scoring and we STILL do not have that on the team. 2nd round exit is my prediction. But hey, we're going to defend the hell out of that puck. LOL.

Not to mention Necas, TT and our second defensive pair are in contract years. That alone will keep a fire under their ass.

Necas was in a contract year a year ago and had one of his worst years. That's how we got him on a 2 year deal for damn near nothing.

Not sure that's what I stated, but he is a consistent goal scorer. 

WTF does him going past the second round have to do with anything? Are you high this morning?

We made the CF without Svech and a broken Tuevo. We destroyed the Devils along the way and despite what anyone else thinks, we outplayed Florida every single game in my opinion. We just got goalied. There’s a luck factor and the playoffs can be a crapshoot. Vegas is built very similarly to us talent wise and they won the SC by destroying that same Florida team. I’d say we are deeper than them.

      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...

      I don’t watch college football anymore (used to be Stanford STH but meh), but my wife is Hawaiian and her favorite color is purple, so I guess I knew Tet was my new favorite player to root for when he came out in a purple suit and lei and threw up the Shaka.
