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

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

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!!!

[Munch4455]

[KillerKat]

[KillerKat]

There should be a new rule where if the puck goes out of the offensive zone while a penalty is called against the defense, then the whistle blows.

[KillerKat]

stop shooting it right at the goalie! you're going to make everyone suck Marty's dick

WHAT THE fug WAS ELLIS DOING?

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Wtf just happened, I missed it.

[KillerKat]

WHAT THE fug WAS ELLIS DOING?

He was heading to the bench so that the 6th skater can come in with the delayed penalty. Every team does this.

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.

Why there no stoppage ffs

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

This sh*t is unbelievable.
