Kings @ Canes

Recommended Posts

Justin Williams (a.k.a. Mr. Glass) and the LA Kings were gracious enough to come to NC for their royal butt-kickin. Actually, it was a pretty close one til Jeff Skinner put the game winner past Bernier after a strong attack that left the goalie down and out in the third period. Last time these two met Skinner tallied his first NHL goal. After a strong last minute effort from the Kings, who pulled Bernier with under 2 minutes left but were forced to put him back in after an icing call, the Canes held on to the 2-1 win at home in front of a loud and proud Saturday crowd.

Very limited SOG stat allowed by both teams...

GOALS (assists): CAR Jiri Tlusty, Jeff Skinner (Jokinen, Bowman); LAK PPG Anze Kopitar (J. Williams, J. Johnson)

SOG: CAR 22, LAK 25

PENALTIES: CAR 3, LAK 4

Fight: Tim Gleason vs Kyle Clifford

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