GDT: Hurricanes 13-2-0 vs Kings 8-6-2 @ The Crypt

[42]

I hope we don't do to Andersen what we did to Ward. Then again our system and D is different.

What is the concern? The last 2 weeks, Andersen has started 3 games. I think he's perfectly capable of starting every 3 out of 4 games. on average.

While that's true, it's important to keep Raanta sharp as well. The team seems to have confidence in both, which is good.

I want Andersen damn it!

If he is, great, but we ground Cam down with workload, and he was never the same after injuries / workload, etc. Hell at some point it was probably even mental during the dark ages of Canes hockey.

I trust the Canes are proactively managing Anderson's workload instead of reacting to the results of it. I've got enough faith in them to go with whatever they're doing at this point.

It’s just so weird to see Rod suddenly riding one goalie like this after his tactics of alternating the past few seasons.

Anyone remember whether early on the games were as spread out as much as they've been so far this year?

I'm just glad this game isn't at 10 pm tonight. LFG!

I do feel like the games are a lot more spread out. Weve only had one b2b so far this year, right?

12 of 15 on the road?!? WTF? The Canes will have played 12 of their last 15 on the road on Friday the 26th of November. After this West coast trip they play in Philly, have 3 homes games with a mini trip to Dallas in between and then head West again for 5 more road games! Jeez Louise, that is crazy.

 

[Unsustainable]

If they consider winning is a good strategy for this game, would be good

The games have been pretty spread out so far, unlike last year, so that might be part of it.

a second part is injuries played a role in previous seasons .

 

[hblueridgegal]

Carolina2 same start time again. Hit the Starbucks early, sleepyheads and let's get an afternoon win.

 

[Tryamw]

Well I hope this goes better then the matinee in Toronto did a year or 3 ago..
I'm going dark in 1 hr so I won't be my normal posting self since I'm at work!!

Well I'm sure they can sharpen him up with a stone.. but it might mess with the goalie gear..

It is at 11 pm for me.

 

[MMANumminen]

It is at 11 pm for me.

Saturday night, free day tomorrow, Canes game at 11pm. Good life

 

[HisIceness]

Just f***ing win please

I trust Brind'Amour knows what he's doing.

A true #1 goalie starting 55-60 games is pretty normal.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

I'm just glad this game isn't at 10 pm tonight. LFG!

I wish it was at 10, I’m stuck at work until 9

 

[AD Skinner]

I may be misremembering but hasn't Brind'Amour said he would prefer to have a clear number 1 goalie?

 

[Derailed75]

Very possible that was due to the personal they had

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

We brought up how consistently poor MM has been as a PBP man (in his defense he wasn't trained for it nor did he ever expect to do it imo), but on the flipside Abby LaBar has improved by leaps and bounds when she first started. She was AWFUL when she she started as the media personality, and now she's quality that she'll probably get recruited by ESPN or Fox or something.

Also the hype man they have for games is amazing. I heard he does Bulls and Carolina Courage too- as he should.

 

[andy500]

It is at 11 pm for me.

9pm for me! Perfect on a Saturday. Let's go Canes.

 

[The Faulker 27]

Well, it's 5 o'clock somewhere, and I've been blowing leaves like a suburbian zombie for 6 hours. Time for a drink.
