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!!!

    • Yup the casuals on Facebook ive gotten 85 laughing or angry emojis so far for pointing it out.  The amount of them throwing a fit because the canes were booed is insane  
    • Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen. 
    • Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.
