Hurricanes have been blowing (har har) through all the teams on their West Coast swing. Hope we're up and ready for them.
They're still a very good team. How the Canes play, they don't really need name brand players on lines 2-4. They just need guys to commit to RBA's system. And that's what they have.Svechnikov - Aho - Roslovic
Robinson - Kotkaniemi - Necas
Martinook - Staal - Jarvis
Carrier - Drury - Blake
Slavin - Burns
Gosthisbehere - Walker
Orlov - Chatfield
Andersen
Kochetkov
Meh not that scary anymore
Drury and Carrier are low key useful players. Seth Jarvis is a two-way demon.At first glance it looks like that, and they aren't what they were.
But that third line is a buzz saw with some skill and Drury and Carrier are both big, strong, and hard to create space against.
The D's demise has also been exaggerated.
I predict a win but only if we play really well, Carolina won't be handing us anything.
Tell me the lotto numbers on your next time travel trip broHoly , what a call. Nailed it
I have Horvat. He sucks.I have Lankinen, Skinner and Hill in my fantasy all playing today and I have to bench one.
I don't want to bet against our dudes but we have the toughest matchup.

I have Hill too - there’s a chance Samsonov plays so you might have to wait til closer to game time (who knows)I have Lankinen, Skinner and Hill in my fantasy all playing today and I have to bench one.

He'll need a practice or 2 to get back up to speed. I think we'll see Forbort-Brannstrom either Wednesday or Saturday.Rough for Forbort that his father passed away and then his spot gets taken when he is gone dealing with it... but it is the right move.
Agreed. Key to success will be Desharnais getting it to Brannstrom and Brannstrom breaking it out quickly. They’ll get into trouble if they can’t get it out cleanly. Carolina loves to pressure hard and force you to dump it off the wall so they can collect it and re enter.this will be a good test for that brannstrom/desharnais pairing. if they can be effective against the carolina forecheck they are probably for real
The stats are pretty much the same for each team but the Canes are on a road trip winning streak too.Feel like the Canes are a better opponent for Silovs to regain confidence since they tend spam more lower % shots and have less high end finishers compared to NJ but we'll see.
