Game 29: Carolina Hurricanes (15-11-2) vs. Florida Panthers (7-16-6)


Recommended Posts

The Hurricanes are back at home after that rough road trip as they take on Florida tonight. The Canes regained first (due to games in hand) last night in a shootout loss to New York and will look to get back on track tonight and retake sole possession of first in the Southeast division with a win over Florida and a Jets loss against Boston.

The Canes will roll with the following lineup...

Tlusty - E. Staal - Semin

Skinner - J. Staal - Dwyer

Bowman - Nash - Jokinen

Westgarth - Brent - Hall

Harrison - Faulk

Gleason - Sanguinetti

Pitkanen - McBain

Ellis

Peters

Inactive: Tim Wallace

Injured: Tuomo Ruutu (hip), Chad LaRose (concussion), Joe Corvo (lower body), Cam Ward (knee)

As far as things for the Panthers go, George Parros the "tough guy" is day-to-day, where as Jose Theodore, Michael Caruso, Ed Jovanovski, Mike Weaver, Dmitry Kulikov, Stephen Weiss, and Kris Versteeg are all out.

Go Canes!!!

    • Seems to me that the Bucs have less fight in them now than they had in week 16. The real test is going to be if the Panthers can sustain focus and discipline throughout. With the Bucs being at home, maybe that gives them a little boost of confidence and energy.  Wouldn’t it be something if for ONCE the Panthers came out and dominated from the opening snap and just took this shook Bucs team to task?  If the Panthers see-saw form follows, we are in line for the W. Hard to say we have momentum but we do have a pretty clear pattern of following a loss with a win.  I’m going to say 24-16 Panthers!!
    • When Parcell’s said Bryce better “walk on water”…..the implied concern wasn’t that the tiny QB could survive being hit.  It was acknowledging he would have to be extremely special to overcome the handicaps he would face at this level.  Which he isn’t and can’t.  which isn’t just being hit.  It’s being able to play in an NFL pocket and make NFL throws from it….and that ultimately is Bryce’s problem.  He doesn’t play well from a NFL pocket and can’t make all the throws as needed.  He can’t see as others can.  Which impacts the throws he does and doesn’t take.  It also impacts him bailing and killing plays and turning them into scrambles/dead plays 
    • 9:30 kick off here in Scotland, which is better than the 01:20 early hours of Monday that I feared. Will definitely be watching, but probably wouldn't if it had been 0120 as I need to be up for work at 05:45. Falcons Saints is 6pm on the Sunday so will watch that too if it becomes relevant
