[bluedevil58]

NICE

That was some horrendous goaltending. No reason for Smith to select that save.

 

[Roboturner913]

Solid work by the gentlemen in front of the net

Jwillie! Lots of good hard work on that shift, I sure hope Skinner gets an assist, though I think he may have been the third assist in a world where that exists.

Edit: Nope, he had the primary. But his best contribution to that goal was hauling it to the net to begin that play.

 

[Roboturner913]

Skinner has 4 points in 5 games now and hasn't even played that well by his standards

 

[tarheelhockey]

The Canes have been working that cross-slot pass on the PP all night, glad to see it finally pay off.

 

[VAcaniac]

This team is good. They just kept finding a way

 

[Roboturner913]

keep grinding boys we got em on the ropes

 

[hurricure]

I would trade Kelly Hrudy for Tripp straight across

 

[Tryamw]

This is a team (Calgary) that would out work us and win. Nice to see us outworking them.

Yeah, it’s time to twist the dagger here. We’re all over these guys, they’ve been taking dumb penalties all night, and Smith looks like he’s fighting it.

 

[DougieSmash]

I like Justin, i really do but maybe we should try him for something younger. Patty O'Sullivan, for example.

 

[Roboturner913]

Underrated part of that goal sequence by the way, Rask dump-trucking it to the front of the net a few seconds before the passes that led to the goal. That's his game, he needs to keep doing that.

 

[tarheelhockey]

This is a west coast road trip game.

Let that sink in.

The beautiful thing with the way that our blueline is setup is who are you going to pick on? There are really no weak links. Add in our defensive centers in Kreuger and Staal and you're going to have a bad night every time you play us. I'm so looking forward to the day when we have a little more firepower. This team is going to be scary for a long, long time.

 

[Tryamw]

Well this is exciting but I think we need to put them away not get cute.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

What a cannon by skinner

 

[Roboturner913]

Haha, Jagr is slow

 

[DougieSmash]

We look good with Hanifin playing over 19 minutes at night. Imagine what we could achieve if guy like Carrick get Noah place.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Man, Gaudreau absolutely flew back to backcheck Lindholm there. Holy cow.

 

[Unsustainable]

If Rask + Bean + ??? Could land Duchene level of player, should we consider that?

Its really weird seeing the Canes having one of the best blue lines in Hockey. Man have things changed.

 

[bluedevil58]

Noah is on the brink of breaking out. I honestly feel Fleury is better though. He plays a better defensive game. Not surprised though. We all knew what we were getting when we drafted him.

The only thing that makes me hesitate is Seattle expansion. Bean is insurance against the expansion draft, because our defense is gonna be screwed when that happens. But I think that's a trade that could legitimately put us in the league's elite.

Whooaaaaa
