Carolina Hurricanes (15-13-2) vs. Winnipeg Jets (17-14-2)


Recommended Posts

The Carolina Hurricanes are back at it tonight at PNC arena in a must win game (in my opinion). The Canes currently sit one point out of 8th place and four points away from the Jets and that very elusive South Eastern Division Championship.

The Canes will look a little different tonight as they have made a flurry of moves in the past week which includes recalling Brett Bellemore, John Muse and Riley Nash, reassigning Zach Boychuk, activating Chad LaRose and Joe Corvo from IR, signing Alex Semin to a five year contract and waiving Jussi Jokinen and Tim Wallace.

With all of that done, here is how the Canes will look tonight...

Jiri Tlusty - Eric Staal - Alexander Semin

Jeff Skinner - Jordan Staal - Chad LaRose

Tuomo Ruutu - Riley Nash - Patrick Dwyer

Kevin Westgarth - Tim Brent - Adam Hall

Tim Gleason - Joe Corvo

Joni Pitkanen - Jamie McBain

Jay Harrison - Brett Bellemore

Justin Peters

John Muse

Inactive: Drayson Bowman

Injured: Dan Ellis (leg), Bobby Sanguinetti (upper body), Justin Faulk (knee), Cam Ward (knee)

The Jets are expected to roll with Ondrej Pavelec in goal. As far as injuries go, Ron Hainsey and Mark Stuart are questionable as where Zach Redmond, Jim Slater, and Anthony Peluso are out.

It's time for the Canes to snap this losing streak and start their push for the playoffs.

GO CANES!!!

    • Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.
    • I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.
    • Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
