Calgary (39-19-6) vs Carolina (33-27-5)

7:00 PM EST FSC

After an odd trade deadline this Wed., Calgary walked away with some blockbuster trades including adding Olli Jokinen. But the Canes wern't just sleeping during this time, the Canes were in a three way trade with LA and the Oilers in a trade that brought back a fan favorite Erik Cole. He will be on a line with Ruutu and Staal as reported by a few major news outlets. The Canes really need to win this one to stay in the hunt, falling 3 pts. behind 8th place in the playoffs with the Rangers and Pitt winning last night. There is a three way tie for 6/7/8 between the Panthers, Rangers, and Pitt at 74 points. (*Carolina has 71)

Ward will be in net for the Canes and EDIT Kiprusoff was in net last night so, if were lucky, we will get back up Curtis McElhinney.

As usual I'll be at the game in section 305.

Prediction:

3-2 Canes

All I can say is wow...

Just about a perfect game for the Canes. Ray gets a hat trick, and Cole scores in his comeback debut. Only thing that would have made this a perfect game would have been a shutout, but if there's one goal you're not going to feel bad about, it's getting beat by Iginla. Great game all around. Loved Seidenberg's fight, and loved Gleason standing up for Staal late in the game.

Now THAT is Hurricane Hockey. Reminded me of the way they played during their run for the Cup. They are not that team, but it sure was nice to see the execution and passion back on the ice.

Just watch them when they play the league's best, and skip all the games against .500 ish or below teams. You'll believe we're a cup team again :lol:

We need to put more consistent winning streaks together. This team has shown me they can hang with the best of em. Now they need to show it every night.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
