This Friday, October 7th, the TB Lightning will come into the RBC center to begin the NHL regular season against the Carolina Hurricanes. After a disappointing preseason in which the Canes came away with only 1 win (against Winnipeg) The Hurricanes need to come out with a chip on their shoulder to show everyone that they are better than that, and that they haven't forgotten about missing the playoffs last year. I am so ready for the regular season to start and can't wait to watch the Canes in action. Game time is at 7ET.

Canes win 4-3.

I'd like to have seen Murphy break the roster, but I guess that was wanting too much. Guess he has all season to do so. I'm not sure on the current lines, I think they will be shifted around quite a bit the first few months...

Actually looked again, its changed since the other day.

Should be interesting, looks like Murphy did make the roster, just not on a line currently. (Though that may be the standard 9 days to decide rule or whatever it is)

Kinda wish Kaberle and Pitkanen were swapped. I'd love to see Gleason and Kaberle on a line.

And I honestly like the offensive lines, Stewart adds some size to the Skinner/Ruutu line. I'm not certain how Dalpe made the top line, but I can't wait to see whatever it is they see in him.

      It's going to take time to really evaluate new ownership. I still have some hopes that they can get us past the curse of the Jordan years. We got screwed over by the league with the lottery yet again, nothing in this draft was ever going to make people happy after that happened.

      The Hornets were screwed when they lost out on the #1 pick. Outside of Cooper Flagg this was a terrible draft class full of risky prospects and red flags. Kon Knueppel likely won't ever be a superstar - or even a star, realistically - but he can be a solid contributor for a long time in the league. That's actually more than I think will end up being the case for many of these players.

      I guess we should disregard what all these places say about our draft? And just trust you guys on this board? And as far as the Mark Williams trade, most places are saying we got the much better end of that trade for what its worth to yall. Bleacher report has Kon a "B", BR has him C+, Fansided A-, NBC Sports overall draft an A-, Sports Illustrated overall A-, MSN has Kon a B+, Yahoo Sports has us at an A- overall. Here is what ESPN posted:  Post-Draft Analysis Knueppel's well-rounded perimeter game and terrific 3-point shooting ultimately won out in Charlotte's decision process, with the Hornets attracted to his fit with their current roster and his long-term potential. He should help stabilize their perimeter minutes immediately, with his dependability all season at Duke a major selling point. The Hornets were thought to be exploring moves here, but were content to simply grab their guy and move forward. This is a strong match that should pay off right away for both sides. -- Jeremy Woo
