Welcome back NCSTATEFAN!!!

Tonite game keys.....

1)Cancel out top lines. We dont have home ice line advantage. Need to play great against Madden's and Parise's lines

2) Come out on fire and loose.

3) Get production from Brindy's and the fourth lines. also get the defense involved in offense but dont give up defensive pressure

4) Help cam ward but dont get in his way...canes have been doing a great job keeping the devils awy from front of net and clearing pucks...for the most part...keep it up.

So excited for this game tonight!

The main key to tonight’s game is to get traffic in front of Brodeur and throw as many pucks as we can at the net. Eric Staal said after game 6 that game 7 was going to be won off some ugly goals and I think that also. We have to expect the Devils to come out better than they did in game six and Brodeur to be the great player he is. I think this game is won off of deflection and screened goals. That’s the only way anyone is going to beat Cam or Martin tonight.

Go Canes and Please get on NJ tonight when we are on the PP

We've got to forcheck and we have to go to the net and get ugly goals. Marty gives up a lot of rebounds, and we have got to finish them. We always need someone in front of the net while in the offensive zone. If we do that, I think we can definitely win. And Cam Ward has got to play like a Conn Smythe winner.

I think the key to this game is going to be speed. Playing a full 60 minutes at the same level as has been played the entire series. NJ just looked like they were starting to loose a step in game 6. Be aggressive, knock the wind out of em, and whatever wind they have left needs to be used up in chasing around the ice.

This is gonna be a fun game.

Drink of choice tonight? anyone?

I aggree they looked somewhat tired in game six. They are an old team mostly and Martin is not the same as he was seven or eight years ago. Hopefully we can bring the energy and speed better than they can and get the all important first goal.

less than an hour away now

5) Don't give up cheap goals. That's most of what NJ gets.

6) Broduer can't handle misderection. Keep passing.

7) Don't fight until the game is almost over. Then beat the crap out of them.

    • I'm more impressed with the UDFA that the guys they have drafted in the first the last 2 years. A whole lot of prove it is still needed before any improvement should be talked about seriously.
    • Sure.    ignore that he said this roster wasn’t good in 2023 to 2024 but keep up the effort
    • While I don't believe its a must win, (we have been better on the road this post season) it is definitely A NEED TO WIN the longer this series goes the more pronounced the Canes advantage on rest and health will be! If we hold serve at home in games 1 and 2 guaranteeing a 6 game minimum series for them if we lose the road games..... by the game 4 and 5 I expect them to be beat they have played A LOT OF HOCKEY the last three years, they have MINIMAL rest off a more physical than one might have expected series vs the leafs.... you know Tampa took their pound of flesh in round 1 from them. Combine all that with the fact that even though this year's canes squad isn't as talented as last years this IS a better squad than the one they swept last time that had McKenzie Mckeathern on line 1 Turbo with a broken hand a banged uo and eventually concussed Slavin (and even though it was a sweep 6 OTS and 4 1 goal losses is hardly dominant)  This year Bob hasn't been superman (hes probably gonna still have a great save percentage agiast us just a side effect of our style) Thatchuk is maybe 50% (3 game winners agiast us) their defense no longer has Gudas and several other downgrades.  While the Canes have a healthy and performing Svechnikov along with other big guys to counteract florida like Carrier, Jankowski, Robinson.   I by know means think it will happen but I either see this as a low scoring dog fight or a series were the canes surprise and end up dominating.
