Carolina defeats the defending Stanley Cup Champions for the third consecutive time this season and lead the series 3-0. Jiri Tlusty screens Tim Thomas for two of the three full strength goals and Staal adds the empty netter to continue his impressive scoring streak to 5 games. Ward continues to face more pucks than anyone else and only his outstanding ability to keep those pucks out of the net allowed the Canes to win. Harrison's strong wrist shot from the blue line helped, too.

The Storm Squad is happy and that makes everyone very happy.

Goals: Dwyer, Faulk, Harrison, Staal.

Assists: Sutter, Brent.

WIN: Wardo LOSS: Thomas

Stops-SOG: Ward - 33-35 (.943), Thomas 17-20 (.850)

Penalties:

CAR 3 (Allen - slashing, Staal - elbowing, Samson - tripping)

BOS 1 (Lucic - slashing)

My 3 stars:

3: Ward

2: Faulk (goal, +2)

1: Harrison (game winning goal, +2)

HM: Tlusty - was a constant presence in front of Thomas and the goal. Thomas is an elite goalie and the best way to score is with traffic in his face. Tlusty seemed to plant himself there when the Canes were on the attack and his efforts sealed the win.

BOXSCORE

It just makes no sense to me how we're not having a good year but can beat the defending Stanley Cup Champs 3 times in a row.

We are a really streaky team this year. IDK. Some nights our passing is on, others it's not.

I think Cpt. Kirk will turn out to be a good coach. Right now we are just trying a crap-ton of different things with the lines.

It will be interesting to see what our team looks like next year with all these rookies getting good playing time this year. A few of them have really stepped up and showed they have what it takes to be a staple in the lineup.

      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.  🤣😂
