Agreed he's just not pulling the trigger on time either....

Which is crazy because he had 3 even strength assists last night. The rags aren't doing anything crazy on the kill it's just a standard 4 man stationary box.

 

The power play was elite when we would cycle around.  Cycle cycle cycle.  In this series, no one is moving, its pass pass pass pass above the blue line.  No one is moving.  We were watching the game last night with one of the parents that has a kids that plays in the canes program and he we talked about this example.  No one is trying to get beside the net or cycle.  Its turning the power play into power pass...

It won't be home ice. I guarantee that the arena will be half Rags fans as Canes fans are selling their seats as we speak after losing the first 2.

Look, facts are facts. The Rags aren't that good 5v5. They are a 2-line team and can't match the Canes speed. But all of that is nullified by bad penalties and horrible officiating. You can only control one of those. And, unfortunately, the Canes vaunted PK has gone missing. It's not unlike any other post season in the last 6 years- seems the Canes always leave some part of their game off the plane, whether it's goaltending, scoring or special teams. 

I don't see the Canes winning 4 of the next 5, and I'll be pleasantly surprised if they take both at home, but I'm not anticipating it. I've resigned myself to the fact I can go to Canes games during the season and watch them play good hockey and win a lot of games. But when it comes to the post season, all bets are off.

 

 

Il be there Thursday and Friday but my hopes are all but tempered.  ill cheer and all that good stuff, but yeah, not looking forward to seeing cary come out in full force.

Can we really talk about Freddie?  He had some nice saves last night but he is letting in 3-4 goals a game over the last 3-4 games.  His save % is .809ish.  We we need the timely save, we aren't getting it.   It's firmly time to move to the kid.  Koochie needs to inject some life in this team.

Hate to say it but the crowd doesn't have much effect home games are decided by the last change

We will be fine. Get these next 2. Our guys are resilient and care. They will come out flying around tomorrow. 

I think we take these home games, if Pesce is back it helps the pk a log.

 

It's not like they blew us out (which for the past two post seasons we got blown out by everyone on the road) we have 3 home games left and two more shots to steal one this ain't over yet.

League needs to suspend him. That elbow comes up even if it misses. 

I won't wish I'll on him. But, it would have been epically hilarious if he had paralyzed himself trying to injure another player!

Pressure is certainly on. Guess the canes aren’t practicing today or they haven’t announced it. 
 

 

Practice what, exactly? Passing the puck 5v4 around the perimeter and taking shots from distance with no net front? I'd say they've got that down pretty well.

Practice not doing that would probably be a good start.

      If We Don't Win Another Game. Do We Make Any Trades??

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      I would only consider trading Adam Thielen and Miles Sanders at this point. I like Thielen but this is so the young WR's can have the most opportunity for development since we are using a QB capable of throwing the ball more than 5 yards and they now have a shot at development.  Plus it gives Thielen a chance to go to a team who may be chasing a ring if that's what he wants. I would trade Sanders also but nobody wants him or that contract and he holds no value to anyone I have a feeling. He isn't doing us any good and I feel as if any other young back from any teams practice squad could match that production easily. I still would not rush Brooks along and would give that knee all the time it needs especially for a RB who will be making many cuts in live game situations. No reason to rush him along and at this point I'm okay with pretending we can't have him this season and just making sure that knee is completely well to 100%. If game action this year then very light carries and a major backup role for him to mainly just watch. Either way we don't need sanders but nobody is offering us a thing for him due to how he has looked since in Carolina and that contract of his so it is just wishful thinking on my behalf

      Would You Get a QB in 2025 draft, or not??

      Ideally take a big trade down like the Bears got from us. This teams needs 10+ starters lol need a huge infusion of talent to turn things around. Unless you're fully convinced the guy sitting there is the next Tom Brady gonna look to trade and go BPA the whole way and just stack the roster with as much talent as I can.
