"Ron Francis, Assistant General Manager and Director of Player Development for the National Hockey League’s Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has activated forward Patrick Eaves from injured reserve. Eaves, acquired on Feb. 11 along with Joseph Corvo from the Ottawa Senators, is expected to make his Hurricanes debut tonight as Carolina hosts the New Jersey Devils."

2/26/2008 3:10:02 PM

EAVES is PISSED, or at least I hope he is

2/26/2008 3:13:36 PM

Seriously.. what the hell JR.. Laddy gets shit together and then you trade him..

I understand trading high, but I think Laddy can keep it up and we are really going to miss him.. As much as I hated losing Stillman in the last trade, we atleast got something we NEEDED in a puck-handling defenseman.. what do we get out of this?

2/26/2008 3:16:58 PM

i was really starting to like ladd


so lets start playing guess how many goals ladd scores on us when we play them

i dont get how in the hell he is +15. i know he started hot, but he is nothing more than a pylon lately

2/26/2008 4:41:40 PM

Is Tuutu playing tonight?

2/26/2008 4:57:52 PM

if he makes it in time

2/26/2008 4:59:50 PM

I don't see why not, a lot of people knew ahead time and I think there's a little more pressure on the 'trade deadline deal'. He could be here in time.

2/26/2008 5:00:33 PM

and it's Ruutu, not Tuutu. or Tootoo.

2/26/2008 5:07:31 PM

most likely not

Quote :

" With five inches of snow on the ground at O'Hare, Tuomo Ruutu is racing to get to Raleigh to play tonight against the Devils. His 1:10 p.m. CT scheduled departure is still sitting on the ground in Chicago, with an estimated arrival in Raleigh of 6:30 p.m. That's going to make it nigh-impossible for a 7 p.m. game. First, he had got to make the flight. He was on the ice for practice with Chicago and needed to change, grab his gear and get to the airport in less than two hours. With Patrick Eaves healthy, the Canes have someone who can step into Andrew Ladd's spot tonight. "

Also: Hamilton to Albany.

so game still blacked out? am i gonna have to drive back to raleigh and get tickets?

2/26/2008 5:31:19 PM

Quote :

"UPDATE, 5:31 p.m.: Ruutu's flight is in the air and scheduled to land at 6:24 p.m. The Canes are arranging for a police escort to get him to the RBC Center as quickly as possible and Carolina coach Peter Laviolette said even if Ruutu misses warm-ups he'll consider dressing him."

w00t.

Also, I still have this $10 ticket. If you really don't want to shell out the $10 then I will give it to you free. Otherwise, it's probably going to waste because I'm not standing around trying to sell it.

2/26/2008 5:41:11 PM

seriously? can you leave it at willcall?

2/26/2008 5:43:00 PM

aha police escort awesome

2/26/2008 5:43:51 PM

If no one has offered to buy it from me in the next 10 minutes or so then I'll leave it at will call.

2/26/2008 5:45:55 PM

No takers; it's yours. I will probably get to will call to drop it off around 6:45. Who do I leave it for? PM me I guess.

EDIT: Well, I need to go get dinner on my way to the game, so I'm leaving. If someone wants it they can call me.

The guys from Hockey Night in Canada,(Don C, etc..) said the Canes deal was one of the best of the day. So maybe JR did know what he was doing.

2/26/2008 6:14:10 PM

meh, i just hated to see ladd go after what he's done lately

forsland said earlier that he thought it would mess up the chemistry because ladd was liked in the locker room

"“It’s tough when you lose one of your best friends on the team at any time,” Staal said. “Obviously I was pretty close to Andrew the past few years. Hopefully it goes well for him in Chicago and the guy that we picked up really helps out our team and gets us into the playoffs and hopefully far into the playoffs."

and Ruutu (likely) landed at the airport at 6:22

2/26/2008 6:55:52 PM

RUUTU IS PISSED

Actually, let's go Canes because they need it more.


I am pissed because I was going to get tickets for this game and then found out I get to fix a projection tv (bye $400) and I banked on watching it but noooooo. Ugh. At least I get to listen to it from the Devil's side.

"Canes say Gleason won't return after suffering head injury Associated Press RALEIGH, N.C. -- Carolina defenseman Tim Gleason left Tuesday night's game against New Jersey in the first period with a head injury. The Hurricanes said Gleason wouldn't return, but the severity of the injury was not immediately known. New Jersey center Michael Rupp delivered a hard check to Gleason in one corner of the Devils' attacking zone with 12:53 left in the period, and Gleason appeared to hit the boards face-first. Gleason fell to the ice and later was helped to the bench by teammates Erik Cole and Glen Wesley because he seemed to have trouble skating. Rupp was issued a 5-minute penalty for boarding, and later in the period fought Carolina enforcer Wade Brookbank. Copyright 2008 by The Associated Press"
