Game 1: Hurricanes vs. Red Wings


Recommended Posts

Welp...

It's game day folks!!!

The Hurricanes will begin their quest for a Stanley Cup tonight against the Detroit Red Wings. The Red Wings are coming off of a 2-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres where Ryan Miller actually kept the score much closer than it should have been.

As far as the Hurricanes are concerned, they are flying under the radar this year and are featuring quite a few new faces, hopefully the sweet tea line (Tlusty - E. Staal - Semin) will continue their success as other players begin to step up.

P.S. I will be at the game as I made the trip down from Lynchburg for fall break so I will not be chatting with you guys tonight.

What: Carolina Hurricanes vs. Detroit Red Wings

Do you think Bellemore and Murphy genuinely beat out Komi for the defensive start or do you think Muller is giving them an early season look? It bothers me that he's the extra right now. Hopefully we can get Gleason back soon and hopefully he's in better shape than he was last year.

That's just what they have been going with in the morning skates.

The projected line up is based off of the Hurricanes depth chart and the tweets from Chip Alexander and Michael Smith.

    • I'd been trying out different mobile browsers to see what worked best with the board (Brave used to be good but wasn't cutting it these days). My Choice: Firefox (Android) Unlike some others, Firefox embeds links on the first try. The method that works best is to make the change from "x" to "Twitter" in a separate editor (note taking apps tend to work) then paste it in as plain text. Doing this, I've yet to have an issue. Also worth noting that this browser doesn't give you the little "broken link" sign when you post an emoji like a lot of others do. Hope that helps 🙂 ... Of course if you can't spell or type for sh-t, you're lazy about editing and/or your grammar sucks, a browser isn't going to help that 😐
    • Sacks are a function of the scheme you run and the quality of your pass defense. Many sacks are coverage sacks because your secondary stopped the short pass and gave your rushers time to get to the quarterback. One gap schemes generate more sacks from your d- line while 2 gap schemes tend to concentrate sacks on linebackers and blitzers. So how successful any of our D line will be will depend on Evero's scheme. If we rush three again and no blitzes we won't be getting sacks.  If we use more press coverage and start 6 guys on the line and confuse the blocking assignments and use more blitzes, stunts and overloads Brown and company could feast. Guys will get more work as they learn the system and playing time as they produce on the field.
