Recommended Posts

Canes Record: 11-8-0 (22 Points, T-2nd, Metropolitan Division)

Canes Last Game: 8-2 Loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Friday, November 24

Blue Jackets Record: 6-11-4 (16 Points, 8th, Metropolitan Division)

Blue Jackets Last Game: 2-1 Win over the New Jersey Devils on Friday, November 24

Last Time Out

  • The Canes played "their best period of the season" to start Friday night against Tampa Bay. Then they gave up eight goals over the final 40 minutes. Three power play goals in three tries in just 4:20 spun the contest in favor of the Lightning during the second period, and then they put on a five-goal clinic in the third. Antti Raanta suffered the loss, allowing eight goals on 14 shots.

Discipline Woes

  • After a rocky start to their season on the penalty kill, Carolina entered Friday's game 27 for their last 30 (90%) over their previous 11 games. Against the Lightning, they went just 1/5. Andrei Svechnikov has taken a penalty in seven consecutive games.

Bunting's Production

  • Forward Michael Bunting had his third multi-point game of the season Friday night against Tampa Bay.  He also has seven points in six career games against Columbus.

In Net

  • After Raanta went the whole way in the loss to the Bolts, it is expected that Pyotr Kochetkov will take his turn in the rotation against the Blue Jackets. The 24-year-old played 40 minutes in relief against Edmonton on Wednesday, stopping 13 of 15.

Hurricanes projected lineup

Teuvo Teravainen -- Sebastian Aho -- Seth Jarvis

Andrei Svechnikov -- Jesper Kotkaniemi – Martin Necas

Jordan Martinook -- Jordan Staal -- Jesper Fast

Michael Bunting -- Jack Drury -- Stefan Noesen

Jaccob Slavin -- Brent Burns

Brady Skjei -- Brett Pesce

Dmitry Orlov -- Jalen Chatfield

Pyotr Kochetkov

    • Trevon Moehrig, Turk Wharton, Bobby Brown, Jaelen Phillips, Devin Lloyd, Nic Scourton Giving him 6 starters in 2 offseasons that cost boat loads of money or a 2nd round pick... Not exactly handing the man scraps. The point of the draft is to make the team better. You want to make this about Bryce. It isn't. It's about improving the team. And if anyone can look at our offense and go "we're good", they are lying to themselves. You give quarterbacks weapons. We SCREAMED for YEARS to give Cam some help. But now because we are trying to do it for Bryce, you all are saying we are coddling him because of his "deficiencies". It's a double-standard because you don't like the guy, clearly. But even if he does fail, guess what? The next guy has help too. Win-win.
    • we have 2 solid/above average (however you want to phrase that) wr's, which is more than half the league at least.  We dont need to be blowing more first round capital just to placate Bryce and his limitations.   We have one absolute stud (probably top 10 wr) in tmac and we have a high floor guy with insane potential if he can stay healthy.  Yeah man we are in better shape than the bulk of the teams in the league.  If you need to add some speed or whatever, sure draft in the mid rounds or wait until tc cuts.  Its monumentally stupid to spend 3 straight firsts on a wr if thats the route they go.  ITs just more and more excuses for Bryce, thats where we are at now.    "How can bryce succeed without a big possession type wr (drafts 2 for him), how is bryce supposed to exceed without a speed guy......."   Its fuging never ending.  Give EE some goddamn help on defense for once
    • Tight ends in the first round just have so much risk. Even guys that look like guarantees at the position, fail. OJ Howard is a big one that comes to mind (and I REALLY liked him and thought he was going to be a stud in the NFL). I know that every player/position can be a gamble, but when you look at Kyle Pitts (he's come a long way, but he has clearly underperformed), TJ Hockenson, Hayden Hurst, Noah Fant, Eric Ebron, etc., NONE of these guys changed the dynamic of their team for the better. Zero. In fact, most of them end up being traded before their rookie deal is up. This draft has some good tight ends. I wouldn't spend a 1st on one.
