Not their best.  And Bussi has given up 4 goals (so far) each of his last two games.

Freddie gives up 2 against the best team we play this trip. Bussi gives up 4 against the worst. Excusathon time.

Game shouldn’t have been that close. The players clearly know a trade is coming.  
 

Blue line sucks. It flat out sucks. 
 

Bussi is suffering from it.  
 

At least we can score. 
 

blue line fuging sucks. It’s fuging terrible.  Good players. Bad mesh. Make trades.

Not sure any goalie is stopping the last three goals the Canucks scored... Deflection off of a defender on a cross crease pass, open slot shot after a pass from Bussi's post (he has to hold the post there), and an open cross crease dunk on the 5 on 3 PK.

Penalty kill looked awful tonight. Gave up the middle way to easily and let the Canucks easily move the puck around

100%. The best goalie in the league isn't stopping wide open looks in the slot below the dots. Canes were overly aggressive on pucks along the walls and gave up the middle of the ice all night.

I still believe in Bussi’s potential. And I am glad Freddie looked like his old self his last outing. 

But if had been Freddie who let in 4 goals each of his last two games even with the same defensive lapses, some of you would have been calling for his head, not defending him.

And that’s a damn fact.

Even Tripp said Bussi was not on his game, twice he was way out of the net, needlessly leaving the net open.

    • Some national praise for Stankonia this fine morning... NHL playoff breakouts: 6 players opening eyes with their postseason performance Stankoven had an absolutely dominant Game 1 against Ottawa. At five-on-five, the team went up 19-5 in shot attempts, 2-0 in scoring, and earned a 93 percent xG rate in his minutes. Stankoven’s seven shot attempts and overall efforts helped contribute to 2.17 of the Canes’ 3.16 expected goals at five-on-five. ... After earning two primary points on the Canes’ goals on Saturday, he saved a goal in Game 2 that almost slipped over the line (and likely would have changed the tone of the game early), and added another of his own. 15 early takes from Round 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs 5. Stankoven’s a dawg The Hurricanes have a lot of dawgs — Martinook is one too — but Logan Stankoven deserves the title in his own way. Three goals through two games, not afraid of the moment, and his line with Taylor Hall and Jackson Blake is relentless. They’ve got an expected goal rate around 75 per cent at 5-on-5 so far. ***Bonus Round*** 4. Tkachuk has to settle into the moment Last Ottawa thought is that they’ve got lots of guys going. Tim Stutzle is all over it, Drake Batherson, Ridly Greig, these guys should’ve scored more than they have, but it’s like there’s a forcefield at the net. However, Brady Tkachuk hasn’t been on the ice for a goal for yet, and to me, it’s because he’s just so damn over-eager. He looks like he’s in a fist-fight with the puck out there and it’s blowing up on his stick way too often. He needs the opposite of smelling salts pre-game. He needs a chai tea and a fiction novel in the dressing room. He’s one of the rare guys you’d like to see calm down, rather than rev up.
    • I am already mad about the pick.
    • I definitely want a DT as versatile as McD. (Trade back) I am not into McNeil-Warren because I (for some reason) see him as a run stuffer more than a center fielder.  Not interested in Sadiq because I think a TE in round 1 is a waste of a first rounder, and I lke Iheanachor, but not round 1.  I think it might be WR or OT--
