This is a thing that whatever team wins the cup has to have. It's like the #1 factor in being champion. Whoever has the hottest goalie almost always wins.4/11/2023 11:08:46 AM |

I think we need it to get out of the first round, and probably to win the div. we look like Poo 4/11/2023 2:54:04 PM |

Yes ok, but a hot goalie is pretty much the key to any teams cup run. Like saying that is unique to the canes winning in the playoffs is silly. Teams don't win in the playoffs without one.
The canes won a cup because cam ward played out of his mind in those playoffs and then he wasn't nearly that good ever again for his entire career.. It can happen to anyone. 4/11/2023 3:07:16 PM |

rephrase. do you think Raanta or Freddie can be that Goalie. I think Raanta has a chance, but can he play every game in the playoffs or the majority? The huge problem is Freddie looks pretty bad letting in soft goals left and right.
PP has looked a little better so maybe win the last game and have a back to back wins.
I'm here for the Stanley cup run! Lets go Canes! Hope to get to a playoff game. 4/12/2023 8:43:29 AM |

3rd Period was crazy. Locked up 2 seed which means you avoid Boston until the Conference Finals should you advance.
But if Freddie keeps letting in these soft goals that won't be an issue. 4/14/2023 8:21:42 AM |

Turbo out indefinitely with a broken hand on an uncalled slash. Cool. 4/19/2023 11:48:14 PM |
Wolfey All American 2680 Posts user info edit post |
Based on Rod's post game comments if Game 3 or Game 4 gets out of reach for either team I would think that Pageau can expect some retribution.
Turbo is out for series and is having surgery so I would think he will be out until the Conference Finals, maybe comes back towards end of next round if it goes 6 or 7 games. 4/20/2023 8:34:38 AM |

I'd say at a minimum he'd be out about 6 weeks 4/20/2023 9:13:29 AM |

Think we stick with raanta in goal for the haul, switch after a loss, or go to goalie by committee?
I don't think raanta is in goal for the entire series and rod will decide game by game 4/20/2023 12:40:34 PM |

Crazy how quickly the game fell apart. I hope Necas doesn’t get suspended but he’s been invisible and there’s zero chance we win on the road Sunday so maybe it’s not the end of the world.
This team may win the series but we’re cooked against the Rangers or Bruins. 4/21/2023 11:07:38 PM |

Throwing a punch on the Islanders bench. Not saying I agree with it but the interwebs are making it sound like he’ll definitely get suspended. Hope they are wrong 4/22/2023 12:02:13 PM |

We definitely stole it but the boneheaded line change in the first quarter is the only reason they were behind to begin with. Definitely can get pas the rangers or devils in the next round 4/29/2023 12:27:23 AM |

The TV guys were so sad that the hurricanes won.
Of course at the end of the devils/rangers game 7 buccigross picked the devils to beat the canes because "the canes can't score that much" 5/4/2023 2:33:25 PM |
