Preseason loss to Columbus, 4-3.
They started… and so should a thread.
Someone should make an effort… surely the Hurricanes might. 9/21/2014 5:50:09 PM |

It's been really hard for me to get excited about the Canes the last couple of seasons.
I'm sure my fandom will really take a step back now that I'm living in GA and assume I won't be in the Canes market to get many games on TV. 9/21/2014 6:01:06 PM |

I moved to the DC area, so I will be watching the Caps while keeping up with the Canes via the world wide web and the NHL Network.
If it looks good, I may swing for the NHL package 9/22/2014 7:13:37 AM |

Letter speculation? I don't even know who wore them last year.

I was a little surprised to see Tolchinsky go this early. He is undersized, but has phenomenal skill. Maybe some protein and another great year in the juniors will get him a spot on the roster or at least Charlotte next year.
E. Staal obviously, and then I believe Manny wore an A along with Harrison or Faulk maybe?

E. Staal wore the C, J. Staal wore an A along with Gleason then Malhotra (after the Gleason trade).
Since Malhotra is unfortunately not back, I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up as E. Staal (C), J. Staal (A), Faulk (A). I would love to see them take the C from E. Staal, although I have no idea who they should give it to over him. 9/22/2014 8:01:54 PM |

because Jordan Staal's extended absence is going to make us suck enough to be in the McDavid/#1 pick in the draft running. 9/24/2014 2:13:14 PM |

He's just there to give more NHL experience to the team during camp. Will be surprised if he actually sticks around. 9/28/2014 11:14:33 AM |

I think I agree with Dammit. Although I am skeptical because bringing him back is reminiscent of the JR days of recycling people.
I have not been a fan of Larose for quite some time now, BUT he does possibly bring an energy to this team that we desperately need. Ugh...this team is so frustrating 9/29/2014 1:06:26 PM |

it could be a dumpster fire of a season, but this potential Skinner-Rask-Lindholm line could be entertaining to watch develop 10/2/2014 7:47:10 PM |
brownie27 All American 3030 Posts user info edit post |
That's fairly similar to Detroits Nyquist (SWE - 5'11"-183) -Zetterberg (SWE - 6' - 195) -Abdelkader (CAN - 6'-2" 218).... Skinner (CAN - 5'-11" - 200) -Rask ( SWE - 6'-2" - 200) -Lindholm (SWE - 6'-1" - 192)
I believe that is a fairly productive line in Day Twa 10/3/2014 11:12:57 AM |

In that slomo video, it certainly looks like Niskanen was trying to hit Skinner. He says, though, that he wasn't even trying to hit him, and that Skinner turned into him/his elbow.
Why the fuck is your elbow up you dirty fuck? He was looking right at Skinner in that video.
If Skinner is concussed, again, we might be looking at his career ending pretty soon. He's had 3 already? 10/6/2014 10:34:34 AM |

Well, I wasn't too excited about the upcoming season and didn't renew my Friday night package and then today Adam and Joe were giving away tickets for the entire season in a competition on the show for the best Chuck or John Forslund impersonation.

Met John Forslund in the airport today. He seemed pissed that Chad wanted to do an analysis piece. Nice guy, but funny seeing him get frustrated in person too.
Opening night, so ready to go to a game again. After living Chicago for basically three years and not being able to afford to go, excited to see hockey in person again! 10/10/2014 11:47:02 AM |

Quote : | "RALEIGH, N.C. — Downtown Raleigh residents and those driving around the capital city will have a new signal to help them follow the Carolina Hurricanes this season.
Highwoods Properties, developers of PNC Plaza, will light the tower's spire Canes red during each home game, and the spire will swirl a white-and-red celebration for each Carolina goal. After home victories, the lights will swirl for two minutes.
“We are honored that a Hurricanes goal light will now be a part of the Raleigh skyline for our home games, allowing people downtown a chance to celebrate simultaneously with the fans at PNC Arena,” said Don Waddell, president of Gale Force Sports and Entertainment." |
