Game 30: Carolina Hurricanes (15-12-2) vs. New Jersey Devils (13-11-6)


Recommended Posts

The Carolina Hurricanes are back at it tonight as they take on the New Jersey Devils at PNC Arena. The Hurricanes are currently in a slump that has them playing their worst hockey of the year. Luckily for them they will get an important body back in Tuomo Ruutu as most of the players on the offensive end are injury free. However, the Canes have had a huge set back on the defensive end with Justin Faulk and Joe Corvo both going down. Brett Bellemore will step in and get his first taste of NHL action in place for Faulk tonight.

The Canes will roll with the following lineup...

Jiri Tlusty - Eric Staal - Alexander Semin

Jeff Skinner - Jordan Staal - Patrick Dwyer

Drayson Bowman - Riley Nash - Jussi Jokinen

Tuomo Ruutu - Tim Brent - Adam Hall

Jay Harrison - Tim Gleason

Joni Pitkanen - Jamie McBain

Bobby Sanguinetti - Brett Bellemore

Dan Ellis

Justin Peters

Inactive: Kevin Westgarth, Tim Wallace, Zach Boychuk

Injured: Joe Corvo (lower body), Chad LaRose (concussion), Justin Faulk (knee), Cam Ward (knee)

As far as the Devils are concerned, they will get their number one goaltender back tonight, Martin Broudeur. However, they will be without Dainus Zubrus and possibly Alexei Ponikarovsky and Andrei Loktionov.

Go Canes!!!

Wtf just happened, I missed it.

Canes in Devils zone. Canes drew a delayed penalty in Devils Zone. Ellis skates to the bench so the 6th skater can come in. Jordan passes to Gleason. Gleason can't reach it. Puck goes out of the Devil's zone, bounces off the side board and into our own net.

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
