Lucky to get a point out of that one. Cam Ward has faced 93 shots in the past 27 hours.

"cons: doesn't shoot enough"

I still remember the look on Joni's face on that one PP goal he scored in our first game against Boston this season. We were just passing it around for a while, and the Pitkanen took it for a good 5 seconds and just stick handled until people sort of started to make noise/boo, so he just threw a wrister at the goal and it went in.

He had the best surprised/happy "really?!" look on his face. I was hoping that would be a turning point for him wanting to put more pucks on net, but he's played so little that it's hard to tell.

I agree with what's been said here, BUT, we haven't seen Pitkanen play for Muller yet. I recall a ton of ranting going on about Staal before Muller took over, and look at how well he has played of late.

I'd like to see Pitkanen play under Muller for a while, then make a decision.

SHOOOOOOOOOOT

3/8/2012 8:56:04 AM

comparing Staal to Pitkanen makes zero sense. Staal's talent level is massive compared to Pitkanen...

3/8/2012 12:10:50 PM

I didn't compare him to Staal.

I said Staal has played better under Muller, and I'd like to see how Joni plays under Muller. Does that make more sense?

3/8/2012 2:58:33 PM

WITH THE CANES?!??!?!

you realize you just made a comparison, right? compare /= equate.

3/8/2012 3:48:23 PM

There are a number of definitions for compare. For instance, in the case of "compare and contrast," compare is used to mean "liken to." In that sense, it essentially DOES mean "equate."

So there's that.

3/8/2012 6:56:27 PM

Welcome back Ruutu! Canes looking good

3/10/2012 9:26:02 PM

just a few more OT wins/firing Mo earlier and we'd be in it

3/10/2012 9:43:27 PM

How long before we bring Mo back as head coach? 2015?

3/11/2012 12:17:44 AM

Man the Hurricanes are getting absolutely dominated by the Panthers in the first 10 minutes.

Second of a back to back... what're you gonna do?

3/11/2012 5:26:49 PM

stupid fucking Penguins alternate wannabes

3/11/2012 5:29:08 PM

That will do it

3/11/2012 7:40:00 PM

meh

3/11/2012 7:40:08 PM

information out there that Sanguinetti is getting his first Canes callup today.

3/12/2012 1:01:48 PM

^ I haven't seen any official word, other than a Justin Soryal tweet:

That got retweeted by Michael Smith and now Forslund is saying "a d-man callup from Charlotte today". Sounds pretty legit.

3/12/2012 1:40:21 PM

BOBBY FREAKIN SANGUINETTI

Bad night to skip out on if you have the means to be there, got a feeling the combination of free PNC shit, the on-ice pregame shit, and a game against the current best in the West will make for a good evening.

3/15/2012 12:27:28 AM

I'm fucking pissed.

3/15/2012 12:49:48 AM

sweden, we'll be there. even rocking a brand new jersey for the night.

3/15/2012 1:32:00 AM

If anybody wants two free lower/club level tickets to the Montreal game on April 5th, pm me with your full name (they have to be picked up at will call). This offer is also going up on my facebook, so they may be gone by the time someone replies.

And they're gone.

is it too much to ask for some decent St Paddy's Day canes gear?

3/15/2012 11:09:23 AM

Yes. Because that's a dumb thing to ask for.

3/15/2012 11:39:01 AM

Why do all the green McRuutu jerseys look so ridiculous?

3/15/2012 12:46:49 PM

I'm ok with the green player shirts, but NOT OK with "irishing up" players names. "O'Staal" WTF??

3/15/2012 12:53:15 PM

Especially because Staal's Viking forefathers were the ones killing the Irish men and ravaging the Irish women, not the other way around.

3/15/2012 1:25:28 PM

so there were over 600 logos in the arena that they had to change

I'd like to believe that there are at least a handful of Entertainment and Sports Arena's scattered throughout the place

3/15/2012 1:31:29 PM

I mostly just want a green canes hoodie. Def not gaying up player's names in an attempt to make them Irish

3/15/2012 3:15:46 PM

if you want a green hoodie so bad, how about pulling for a team that has green as one of their colors

perhaps the Wild?

3/15/2012 3:33:55 PM

If you want green canes apparel, just buy some Whalers gear.

Chuck Kaiton just referenced Frank Zappa

3/15/2012 8:26:29 PM

sucked I couldn't get there for the pregame stuff, but the on-ice stuff in the intermissions was awesome

3/15/2012 11:49:07 PM

Those ice graphics were great, but holy hell, I thought I was going to be blinded by the camera flashes bouncing off the projection.

3/16/2012 9:55:37 AM

Skinner suspended 2 games for kicking a guy on the blues. Sucks, but he deserves it. Can't do dumb stuff like that.

3/16/2012 8:37:26 PM

he needs to calm the fuck down. Skinner's been doing all the Danny Briere shit that makes me hate Briere.

3/18/2012 9:56:35 PM

Yea, I don't even know how Winnipeg fans are upset about that one...

(but the Dwyer slash was pretty bad)
