Damn this game has been fun to watch. Canes have no quit in them even with the bad breaks and questionable calls. Good to see them with this kind of fight.

10/23/2009 11:19:46 PM

Absolute garbage. If the Leafs weren't so absurdly terrible, I would say we are the worst team in the league.

10/23/2009 11:38:17 PM

jim rutherford is skeptical.

10/23/2009 11:41:50 PM

hows this years draft class looking?

Sucks for the Leafs. They won't even have a 1st round pick to show for how awful they are

This year's draft class is supposed to be pretty weak.

If we are still horrible come deadline day (which I realize is a looong way off), we have a ton of veteran UFAs that we absolutely would have to sell off for as many prospects and picks as we could collect. We could really restock our system nicely with a lot of promising players already in it.

10/24/2009 12:09:58 AM

hooray for multi-year extensions for Mo! HOORAY!!

10/24/2009 1:12:59 AM

j. quick got a three year extension from the kings today, good for him

in other news, grapes is gonna have a field day with that hit, since he has issues with both ruutu brothers and loves tucker to death

also, holy shit craig anderson is good

10/24/2009 5:33:32 AM

Ruutu suspended 3 games.

Sutter is on his way to Minnesota to join the team.

10/24/2009 12:05:03 PM

so we call up Sutter and Mo will probably play him all of 3:41 tonight. Fuck Maurice! Fuck Kevin McCarthy, Fuck Jason Karmanos and his lazy eye! Even a win tonight (which I HIGHLY doubt will happen) won't erase the shittiness that Mo brings to the ice very night. See: this season, '02-'03, '03-'04.

10/24/2009 12:14:36 PM

2002 and 2009 were just luck then?

10/24/2009 12:27:44 PM

73 games left and "fire sale" comes up?

10/24/2009 12:58:40 PM

way too early to panic

but it is past time to get going.

10/24/2009 1:19:08 PM

'02 was a lot of luck, and '09 was how they shouldve played the whole time. Mo just happened to be the guy behind the bench when the players felt bad about costing Lavi his job.

10/24/2009 1:36:24 PM

Cam's playing again tonight. for fuck's sake, throw Leighton a bone!

10/24/2009 3:31:08 PM

Bench Staal.

^no

10/24/2009 3:55:31 PM

^^ You wanna take his job?!?!

10/24/2009 4:55:25 PM

like clockwork, here come the bench staal comments.

10/24/2009 5:13:10 PM

^they never cease to amaze me

10/24/2009 6:35:22 PM

LOL at Samsonov. He hates to shoot so much, so Whitney just passed it so hard that it bounced right off his tape and in.

10/24/2009 8:29:34 PM

CANES PP GOAL EXPOSED??!?!

10/24/2009 8:29:53 PM

Hopefully Conboy has just learned why you shouldn't pick a fight with a giant.

10/24/2009 8:36:05 PM

hahah yea that guy is huge.

10/24/2009 8:37:13 PM

with a guy that big is it considered a win if you don't die?

[Edited on October 24, 2009 at 8:38 PM. Reason : d]

10/24/2009 8:37:59 PM

sutter looks good so far

10/24/2009 8:44:31 PM

The Samsonov goal makes me lol more each time I see it. He falls down with surprise after.

10/24/2009 8:50:28 PM

Pitkanen is too good for this team.

10/24/2009 9:20:38 PM

Robbery on Cullen!!!

Also, +1 to bench Staal! How dare he miss that short-handed breakaway! Haha.

10/24/2009 10:39:09 PM

Pitkanen's play tonight on our two goals was beautiful

10/25/2009 3:34:49 AM

after watching tonight's highlights, it's clear to me that we're a lot like minnesota

we have a metric shit-ton of underachieving talent up front

and the only reason we're in games at any point is because of great goaltending

10/25/2009 3:55:02 AM

So, I think I'll be wearing a Blues jersey on wednesday. seriously.

10/26/2009 10:20:15 AM

Yelle placed on waivers

10/26/2009 11:11:03 AM

Step one has been made.

10/26/2009 11:23:17 AM

What do the Hurricanes and a TV evangelist have in common?...They each have the ability to make 18,680 people stand up and yell "Jesus Christ!"

10/26/2009 11:45:48 AM

step one as in.. making room to keep Sutter up and having him center 3rd/4th line?

[Edited on October 26, 2009 at 12:16 PM. Reason : d]

10/26/2009 12:16:09 PM

I don't understand the desire to bring him up to give him 6 minutes a game.

If we're bringing him up, I hope it is because we think he can play on the 3rd line, but who drops down to the 4th line in that case?

10/26/2009 12:35:39 PM

Brindy?

Not sure what I think about it either but something has to change. maybe they're just trying to send the team a message

[Edited on October 26, 2009 at 12:38 PM. Reason : d]

10/26/2009 12:37:52 PM

The way we have played this year, half the team should go on 4th Line duty.

10/26/2009 2:50:19 PM

Apparently they might put him on the wing: http://hurricanes.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=503578

I don't even know anymore.
