The Hurricanes host the Sharks tonight in what could turn out to be a huge win if the Canes are able to play one of their best games of hockey this season.

Game Notes

1. Derek Joslin will be playing the wing position on the fourth line. Joslin, who has been a healthy scratch for the last five games is being given a chance to get some ice time at the wing position on the fourth line due to Tuomo Ruutu's and Chad LaRose's injury. Also of note Joslin is getting the chance to play against the team that originally drafted him tonight. Expect a good game from Derek tonight.

2. Justin Peters will get his first NHL start in the net since January 7th as Muller is holding Cam Ward out due to a slight injury concern.

3. Jerome Samson and Drayson Bowman should get the nod tonight due to injuries unless Chad LaRose feels like he can play tonight. In that case one of Samson or Bowman will be a healthy scratch.

      They will be if they extend Young but I don't think we're there just yet. Morgan and Canales are tied and I don't believe Tepper is going to go look for a new front office for Bryce as things stand.

      I was playing around with the ESPN playoff predictor and it shows if 49ers and Rams finish with same record, the Rams hold the tiebreaker.

      This is my thinking as well. Seattle played as good as they could on defense and Panthers still had a chance until those back to back turnovers.  I don't think the Rams played particularly well in their game against us, alot things went our way in order to win.  Someone pointed out the Rams were bad on the east coast road games and Seattle has been the better road team but they just fought a hard contested game against the Panthers, and now they travel to San Fran this week for their biggest game of the season to determine the division and if they are the overall #1 seed in the NFC or will be traveling for the Wildcard weekend.  If they lose they then travel back cross the country to play a team they've just beaten two weeks ago, not saying they won't be favored against the Panthers but the energy of hosting our first playoff game in 10 years along with the get back effect of having just lost to this team could be huge.
