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.

      I suppose it depends on what you mean as 'elite'. I typically mean someone that can play with lower level pieces around them and still win. There are very few of those.

      The running back situation....

      By frankw · Posted

      It would obviously be incredible if Brooks came back and just ran away with the job on his opportunities like Rico Dowdle did last year. But any Panthers fan that has been around the block knows better than to go ahead and make plans for that. Brooks has missed a ton of not just playing time but meaningful early career growth in a league that has increasingly devalued the position from an investment standpoint beyond one or two superstars. There's really not any comparison to look back on that lines up with the current iteration of the league at least not favorably. The key thing that this RB room has going for them is our investment in the OL. The highest paid OL in the league two years in a row paired with our staff should make it easier for just about any RB to get into open running lanes. But that is also anything but a given considering our OL was largely middle of the pack last year. In the end it might all be a moot point anyways if we again struggle to establish a viable passing attack.

      I don't have him making the team and I think same goes for the staff, but they are hopeful for a PS spot.    I mean of course I'd like 3 all-world at RB and every spot, just doesn't work that why. Panthers normally carry 3. dan always talk up Etienne, even called him a future star.....I think Brooks will be fine as a 2 with health pls.....  Chubba can carry a seasons load as lead dawg.    Its fine, I mean backup OGs or CB is much higher on my worry scale(Id even put QB room as worse than RB room too...)
