Game 27: Carolina Hurricanes (15-10-1) @ Tampa Bay Lightning (11-15-1)


Recommended Posts

The Canes travel to the Bay area as they take on the Lightning is a must win game for the Canes. Winnipeg is coming on strong and only trails the Canes by one point so if the Canes want to stay atop the division, they need a win tonight.

The Canes will have a new face in the line-up tonight as Adam Hall will be switching natural forces and joining the Hurricanes in the away locker room tonight.

The Canes will roll with the following line-up...

Jiri Tlusty - Eric Staal - Alexander Semin

Jeff Skinner - Jordan Staal - Patrick Dwyer

Drayson Bowman - Riley Nash - Jussi Jokinen

Adam Hall - Tim Brent - Tim Wallace

Jay Harrison - Justin Faulk

Tim Gleason - Joe Corvo

Joni Pitkanen - Jamie McBain

Justin Peters

Dan Ellis

Inactive: Tuomo Ruutu, Bobby Sanguinetti, Kevin Westgarth

Injured: Chad LaRose (concussion), Cam Ward (MCL)

The Lightning will roll with Mathieu Garon in net who has a record of 2-7-0, unfortunately for the Canes; Garon's two wins have come against the Canes.

As far as injuries go, the Lightning will be without Vincent Lecavalier, Benoit Pouliot, and possibly Tom Pyatt.

It's time to get back on track...

LET'S GO CANES!!!

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
