here's the first 18 i thought of

BOULERICE: LEGACY

sorry if it was posted, i just saw this

so we all remember how, in 2003, famed canes enforcee jesse boulerice was spectacularly bitchmade by aaron downey

after what i can only assume was seven years of waking up in a cold sweat every night and training like rocky in the snow, jesse finally got another shot at downey in the preseason this year and it was quite a display of fisticuffsmanship

^^ Don't forget, Jesse Boulerice has two-handed someone in the face on TWO occasions, resulting in cumulative suspensions of fourteen months.

Truly an athlete we can all look up to.

Justin Faulk and Brian Dumoulin were both named to the final Team USA roster today for the World Juniors.

Finland has not announced their final roster yet, but Rasmus Rissanen and Tommi Kivisto are both on the 29 man preliminary roster.

USA and Finland play each other on the opening day, 8 PM on December 26.

I feel a goal coming

12/23/2010 7:28:57 PM

SHORTHANDED LaROSE

12/23/2010 8:03:26 PM

So many fanned chances

12/23/2010 9:31:38 PM

Should've won that one. Even with that boarding call swinging the momentum we had a ton of chances in the 3rd.

That's kinda scary and hilarious all at the same time.

12/24/2010 4:00:14 PM

saw Grinch on the concourse sitting in Santa's lap for a photo

12/24/2010 4:33:36 PM

hilarity has once again ensued on the facebook page

"OMG IT SNOWED IS THE GAME CANCELLED??"

jesus, we would be the laughing stock of the nhl if we cancelled a game because of less than a foot of snow.

I remember when we had the big snow in 2000 I believe, I went the Phoenix game in which they made free admission because maybe 5k showed up for it.

12/26/2010 11:11:36 AM

god i wish i was in town to SNOWGATE

enjoy the game, 7,000 people.

12/26/2010 11:18:13 AM

Yay for 10,000+ empty seats at the RBC Center to be featured on HBO 24/7.

12/26/2010 11:43:12 AM

the last snow game had a decent turnout

but it didn't really start snowing until the second period, so the mess was after the game

this could be another dead one

12/26/2010 12:11:32 PM

snowgate pt 2 today! be there, bitches!

12/26/2010 12:58:07 PM

12/26/2010 1:00:36 PM

[Edited on December 26, 2010 at 7:44 PM. Reason : cut by his own stick, bad call]

12/26/2010 7:43:48 PM

A FUCKING GAME MISCONDUCT?

[Edited on December 26, 2010 at 7:48 PM. Reason : WHAT A LOAD OF FUCKING SHIT]

12/26/2010 7:47:32 PM

FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

12/26/2010 8:29:44 PM

this game is bullshit

12/26/2010 8:31:49 PM

Gonna look goddamn great on HBO

12/26/2010 8:32:44 PM

Would've liked to have our best defenseman on the ice for those 2 goals against us that period......

12/26/2010 8:41:05 PM

Justin Faulk bombs in the USA's first goal of the World Juniors from the point on the powerplay. We could use him on our pp right now...

12/26/2010 8:44:10 PM

WJHC is some of the best, most underrated hockey in the world.

12/27/2010 12:25:12 PM

from AP news:

Quote :

"RALEIGH, N.C. (AP)—Alex Ovechkin(notes) charged out of the tunnel for the pre-game skate and immediately whacked a puck into an empty net."

Not to be too much of a stickler, but nope. He came out for warm ups, whacked a puck at the empty net, hit the cross bar, and put the puck in the netting. Second try, cross bar, straight back at him. Third try at the empty net, he finally put one in. I kinda thought it was a good omen for us.

12/27/2010 1:41:11 PM

Losing streak ended

12/28/2010 9:28:29 PM

just had to come in and brag that after a long search my father in law got me an official black Jeff Skinner jersey. My mancrush on him is now at 100% capacity.

Now I gotta pick out a game to christen it

12/29/2010 8:43:03 AM

Canes recall Rodney and MATSUMOTO

12/29/2010 11:30:33 AM

Stormy has a facebook. Damnit what's next...

12/29/2010 2:56:32 PM

sigh

12/29/2010 2:57:46 PM

I am a fan

12/29/2010 3:53:38 PM

I <3 Boychuk

12/29/2010 8:02:21 PM

He didn't impress me at all last year but he has played well since being called up this year. Hopefully he keeps it up.

12/29/2010 8:06:47 PM

12/29/2010 8:21:46 PM

Ive been a boychuk fan for a while. You can tell hes got talent and he gives max effort every game. Hes just wildly inconsistent and makes rookie mistakes. I really hope he sticks with the big club this time

12/29/2010 8:29:18 PM

Come on Cam, shut the bed!

12/29/2010 8:48:54 PM

I don't want to distract from the game, but do you guys think we could ever host the Winter Classic at Carter-Finley Stadium? I've heard that the NHL when looking at venues in the past has thought that while college football venues, like say Beaver Stadium for a Pens/Flyers matchup, are good ideas, the logistics of having to have all the equipment on a university campus could be a problem due to parking and disturbing students. Since C-F is away from the main campus this wouldn't be a problem. Raleigh on January 1st has historically had a mean temperature of 40 degrees, so I don't think ice conditions should be too big of an issue. Heck the NHL once hosted an outdoor game in Las Vegas. I think the people of Raleigh would really rally around the unique experience of the Winter Classic, and if it was against a decent traveling fan base then a sell out wouldn't be a problem. The city and Hurricanes organization is obviously thought of by the NHL since we will host the All-Star game this year, and have hosted the draft before.

If Raleigh ever did host the Winter Classic, which teams would you think would be good for the Hurricanes to play. I think the NHL may want to go with a team that hasn't played in one before, but historically has a good following. Perhaps the Devils or the Rangers.

12/29/2010 9:10:37 PM

oh my god....

12/29/2010 9:23:51 PM

Ward is making his case for the all-star ballot

12/29/2010 9:30:47 PM

^^^ will never happen. countless venues are more likely to hold it than Carter-Finley.

I like to think I played a hand in the back to back wins in Canada, since I didn't go on the trip. If I had, we would not have won both games.

12/29/2010 9:58:11 PM

woo ward

12/29/2010 10:46:29 PM

Have we allowed a goal since our GM gave our guys a few words last night?
