Svech needs to take a seat. Aside from a couple minutes of flash, he was uninspired tonite.

Yes, the rest of the team was ass, but Svech just isn't playing well.

That "upper body injury" has not gone away. Doctors need to have a look.

Although, he is more physical when he ain't scoring.

He created a very important goal last night not everything shows up on a stat sheet.

Those penalties are going to hurt us eventually from Svech. He is clearly frustrated with his game and other teams see it on take so they know they can get free penalties if they chirp him right now. 

The penalty he took was protecting Freddie cause Philly kept bumping him or in this instance spearing Freddie’s glove hand. After it if you notice they stopped bumping Freddie. The issue with it was he almost hit the dude in the face with the cross check. 
 

As Rod said there’s a time and a place and it was obvious the refs weren’t gonna call anything on Philly at that point. Svech should have waited and laid Sanheim out. Spearing a goalie, let alone their glove hand should be an auto penalty. So should moving Slavin’s stick. But nope.

That’s twice in 3 games or so.  Svech has got to settle down and just play.  When he wasn’t responding to poo and ignores it then he stays focused. I listen to the canes corner podcast and the post game show on 99.9 and Gold mentions at least once everytime lately that 37 isn’t playing well while taking too many dumb penalties.   Everyone sees it. Let’s hope rod is working on it behind the scenes.

I mean let’s be real, the entire team played like complete ass yesterday outside of Slavin, Martinook and Staal. Team offense was non-existent. 
 

11-7 was not the way to go, we were not even trying to play our usual game, which Philly dissected with precision.

That was one of the few flashes I mentioned. And I don't have a stat sheet when I'm sitting there watching him live. He's not playing well.

Yeah me watching it live in 110 too, he still hits hard. In fact he leads the team in hits. But when he has the puck In a clear shooting lane he almost slows down.

    • I wholeheartedly and respectfully disagree with wanting RBA gone.  It would be a huge mistake.
    • Rod wasn't on the ice for any of the goals the Canes scored or the ones we let the Rags score. Hockey is a cruel sport sometimes and I've said winning a Cup is probably the hardest championship to win in all the major sports; what with the salary cap in place, injuries that can and do happen to key players, teams/players that go on "heaters," and just plain damn puck luck. The Canes were the better team, but didn't perform and/or get much luck at all this series.  Refs were decidedly against the team (not saying this is why we lost the series, but it was obvious).  Games 2, 3 and 6 were winnable games for us and the guys didn't play up to the moment, they played nervous, scared, "not to lose hockey," and lost both of the OT games because of it and blew it tonight.  Game 1 was the only straight loss and unfortunately Freddie must have been wearing his Toronto undergarments tonight.  He deserves a lot of the blame tonight, but I can also say we had a couple of other guys that helped the collapse.  Orlov comes immediately to mind tonight and in one of the OT games when he just over skated a puck, to me he made (throughout the season) some of the most consistently dumbest plays I had ever seen out of the Canes defensive unit under RBA and Gleason. Losing absolutely sucks especially to this POS Rags team who can go fug each other, the refs, and the league officials who absolutely want them in the playoffs for as long as possible.  Trocheck can suck a fat cawk for his petty bullshit and I hope karma brings Trouba that broken neck he so richly deserves. All that being said, I don't believe RBA should be thrown under the bus AT ALL.  We could have won this series and there wasn't a specific decision he made that cost the team games.  The players didn't step up in the moments when they needed to, our PP was terrible all series, our PK was terrible in Games 1 and 2 and let us down in Game 6.  We tightened up in the OT games, our goalies were plain average or worse in 5 of 6 games with Freddy losing any sort of mental toughness tonight.  We rarely saw the Canes play the way they can play and when that happens in the playoffs say hello to the end of your season.  I've mentioned it before, but to win the Cup every one of those guys who laces em up and gets out there on the ice has to leave their blood, sweat, and tears out there every single night whether you are playing the Jr. Canes or fugging Rags.  There is no tomorrow, there is now and the Canes have not done that in the playoffs.  We've had tough breaks with injuries (Svech last year, Fast and Pesce this year, etc.), scoring issues, etc. but since I've been around the whole time the franchise has been in NC this iteration of the team has never shown some of the heart and grit that the teams did when they improbably went to the Stanley Cup finals vs. Detroit, won it all in 2006, and made the ECF in 2009 with overall less talent than we have now. I don't want RBA to go, he didn't lose any of these playoff series.  We can question his moves and in a few instances rightfully so, but I don't want to go back to where we were.  Daniels can go to Chicago, evaluate the roster, but this isn't an RBA issue and I don't think it's a Gleason coached D issue.  I think it's the players who have to understand an off night during the playoffs can't happen, play your game, don't overthink it, leave it all out on the ice, and take on the "us vs. the world" mentality.  Hell, the more I think about it the more this team may need a good sports psych. This series could have been 4-1 or 4-2 Canes, instead due to tightening up and nerves getting the best of the boys we lost 4-2.  It SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, but no need with some of these crazy azz takes. and BTW I know we all want to attack us not getting an elite goalie, but 5 out of the last 7 Cup champions didn't have what I would call an "elite" goalie.  In most cases those teams had serviceable goalies who played up to the moment to win the Cup with their teams playing well in front of them.  The two Cups that the Lightning won with Vasilevskiy are the ones were I believe elite goaltending put them over the top. tl;dr:  This series loss isn't because of RBA, y'all are having knee-jerk reactions, our PLAYERS need to bring it when it's playoff time...they haven't, and sometimes the hockey gods aren't with you.
