Carolina Hurricanes (25-21-5) Vs. Vancouver Canucks (22-20-8)

10 PM EST FSC

Canes moved into the 8th and final spot of the playoffs with a 2-0 shutout win against Atlanta on Saturday. But with Florida with games in hand, the canes need to win this one with San Jose next in line.

Ward will be in net with the newly returned Luongo will most likely be in for the Canucks.

I'm liking the penalty kill lately and I expect a nice 3-1 win for the Canes.

The Canucks have been looking dreadful as of late....I watched them play Minnesota Saturday night...they were coming into the game on a 9 game home losing streak. The GM Place was a nervous wreck you could tell. They came out really flat in the 1st, went down 2-0. Then turned it around in the 2nd and 3rd forcing OT, but losing in the end. That was a much need 1 point though, it gives them something.

Sundin has been less than impressive since his return (what a chump!) but he'll get into the groove soon enough....

I like the match-up...Canes/Nucks...pretty good game to watch.

I got my Leafs against the surprising FLORIDA Panthers @ 7:30, will watch the Canes game after!!

This is Bull poo! After spending thousands to see the panthers get beaten like a red headed step child, now we have to watch Paul Maurice's B.S. skeem. Lets dump it in and see if we can score. This system sucks ass! The Detroit Red wings tried this lame as scenario for years and could never capture the cup. Once they pulled their head out of their assses they discovered that was a piss poor strategy. Then they won the cup!

Keep dumping the puck you jackasses and watch your ranking fall into the oblivion!

Christ, I feel like I am living in the 80's watching this dumb ass skeem of Maurices's stupidity!!!

The owner really picked a winner there! F'ing Idiot!

I totally agree! I was so glad when the Leafs fired that fool...I really could not take it. I honestly think though, that the Canes are going to go with Ron Francis at the end of the year. They didn't sign Maurice for longer than the rest of the year, did they??

No they did not. What is the point in the first place anyways. Put Francis in charge now! Not my first pick, but definitely 10 times better then the current status suck!

Canes lose on a shorthanded goal with around 1:30 left in the game 4-3.

Refs blew this game, the penalty on LaRose was ridiculus.

Mo is fine, he's just a short term coach anyways. And why were you not so fired up about Lavi all those years? He kept the same scheme for his entire tenure and didn't have the players to fill it.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
