Chicago Blackhawks (36-19-9) vs Carolina (36-27-5)

8:30 PM EST FSC

Carolina coming off their 5th win in a row, and a shutout none the less, against the Rangers are facing off against a western conference playoff team while the Canes sit at 8th in the east. Ward and the Staal line have been great as of late.

Get ready to see Patrick Kane and Toews along with an old friend Ladd as Ruutu faces off against his old team.

Ward will be in net for Canes

Prediction:

4-2 Canes win

is it just me, or is Cam Ward horrible in shoot outs?

he was starting to do better, he shut out all three players in the last one and was pretty decent in the one before. But yea generally speaking he hasn't been too good at it. That being said, he was the reason we even got to that shootout. He made some freaking amazing saves down the stretch to keep it close.

If you noticed in the shootout, minus the first shot that went five-hole, Cam knew where each shot was going and he played them all great he just missed the puck. The fact that we came out of this game with one point is a big step forward for this team. 6 weeks ago this was a game that the canes stood no chance to be in. They are playing much different hockey this time of the year and its going to make the difference come playoff time. Great game tonight guys. Just make sure you punish Dallas tomorrow night.

I completely agree with you, I was just noticing, besides the 2 shootouts before this, he seems to have trouble. I'm not arguing that he isn't a great game goalie, I just noticed he seems to struggle in shootouts.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
