Around the League 43: Playoff Time- Goodbye Buffalo, Goodbye Yzerplan. And Goodbye Yotes, Welcome Utah.

Their shot suppression is crazy. They did it against Boston, they’re doing it against the Rangers thus far. The fact that we were able to get by that, only to get denied by Bob on a heater, is very disappointing and so typical Canes.

Freddie was on point in that series, too. I wish we’d had Svech and Guentzel last year.

Just remember. Most hockey fans, and many Canes fans weren't too happy when the Canes hired RBA.

most of us were wrong;

Confirmed with Link: - Brind'Amour named head coach

Best quote of the thread was from Sheriff Bart:

"BD58 hates it, so it must be good."

That thread was an entertaining read.

Ahhhhh, a goaltender interference controversy has entered the chat.

 

[A Star is Burns]

That was 100% interference. Rooting for the Panthers but was an easy call.

Toronto spun the wheel and it came up blue.

I thought so, too, but it often feels like a coin flip.

No doubt. Not saying they couldn't have blown it but it was plain as day.

They gotta stop letting defenders get away with pushing forwards into their own goalie.

 

[chaz4hockey]

Culikof giving Rags at bit of their own medicine. Was hooked but he sold the call.

He succeeded at what Trocheck tried

 

[Tryamw]

Trouba going high.
Too many cats

 

[chaz4hockey]

Bob with some Great saves & Rags getting Canes “luck” with two posts hit

 

[Brock Anton]

Rangers games on ESPN are unwatchable. Their bias is incredible.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Lafreniere scores!!

 

[Tryamw]

OK 2-0

 

[chaz4hockey]

Game. lol own goal.

 

[Tryamw]

Lafreniere scores!!

Almost as good as Laine

 

[3CanesInTheBox]

Lafreniere scores!!

Flawless deflection. I'm in tears.

 

[chaz4hockey]

bad clear by Rags goalie leads to the goal.

Rags were bobbed tonight. With that goaltending we beat the rags easily.

Oh well.

Btw: ESPN is clearly biased but I love it when rags lose and they have to eat crow.

Edit: I’d add panthers defense is much better than ours.

and, canes mgt worst recent move was letting Forsling go.

Why Michael Peca looking like he about to teach an adult class at the community college about tips to a successful marriage?

 

[Tryamw]

[chaz4hockey]

[Tryamw]
