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.

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.

    • Those TDs passes you saw Sunday is what I think you will see bryce at his best. Those touch passes he can lob to receivers over the defenders heads. Long as receivers can get significant separation and bryce does overthrow those passes which we seem him do a lot. He is never gonna be a guy that can throw a laser into a receivers chest with a defender draped on him downfield unless its short pass or within a couple feet from the endzone. 
    • If teams play us honestly and take that deep stuff away we may be able to operate good enough underneath to counter that. It is about time we started trying to force them to respect it.    But I think people should enjoy the win for two weeks because what’s in front of us doesn’t scream playoffs to me. It would be shocking if we swept TB. They aren’t Atlanta.  And even if we sweep there can be no let down.    I saw the stat of our record coming off a loss. Pretty good. What would it be coming off a win lol? Without looking, it has to at least be pretty upside down  (I count it to be 2-4). 
    • Win the division from Bucs........BY implodes in the playoff worse than Delhomme and we finally get rid of BY as our QB. Get ready for 2026 with momentum for once.
