Canes Country Points - Phoenix at Carolina

Here's another chance to win points toward the free tickets. (If you are new and have not heard about this before, check out this link).

Guess the first Cane to score in Friday night's game against the Coyotes. Once again there can be multiple winners, so choose any player you want, even if someone else has already selected him.

Each winner will get 10 points.

Entries must be submitted by game time.

_____

BONUS-

Since the "Great One" is in the house, how about a little trivia thrown in? Which ex-Hurricane was involved in the trade which sent Wayne Gretzky to Los Angeles? First correct answer will earn an extra 10 points.

Speaking of Gretzky, he offers an annual fantasy camp for "Average Joe" hockey players who want to share the ice with a few legends. The cost is only $10,999, (or you can hang out as a guest for a mere $1,499), so when your spouse or significant other asks you what you want as a gift this season, put that on your wish list.

Too bad there isn't a Chad LaRose fantasy camp in Raleigh.

Martin Gelinas

by Jonathan on Nov 21, 2008 1:54 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Staal breaks out of his slump with the first goal.

Bonus: Martin Gelinas was the ex-cane.

What happened to your article called the OK one? Did I miss it?

by hotchipsnsalsa on Nov 21, 2008 1:55 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

And I too think Staal scores first

by Jonathan on Nov 21, 2008 1:55 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Tyler, you get the bonus. A bit too easy, eh?

Chips, we were just joking about that article. L I guess I should be more careful with my jokes.

Ruutu and Gelinas

I’ll stick with the breaking the slump theme, but go with Corvo.

by Andrea on Nov 21, 2008 2:04 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Rutuu gets first goal,followed by Staal then Corvo.

I don’t I can win points, but I’m going to go off the board and say Bayda.

by Cory on Nov 21, 2008 2:27 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

I’m going with Ruutu this time.

And darnit, I was really looking forward to the OK Gretzky article ;-)

by T-Leaf on Nov 21, 2008 2:41 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Ruutu all the way

The Secret Weapon scores the 1st goal on a PP, with a blast from the point. Go ahead and give me my 10 points, yo!!!!!

Great Gift Idea! I’m going to ask my significant other for the Gretzky fantisy camp for Christmas ;-) I’m sure she would be willing to sale a kidney or something (I’m joking… gosh!)

I’m so full of it today!!!

and speaking of LaRose… He scores first tonight.

And then Cam gets that empty netter… Darn it Cam!!!

Scott Walker scores first tonight.

by Cathye on Nov 21, 2008 3:27 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

I think think Samsonov will net the first goal

but I would love a Chad LaRose camp…

by tarheelicane on Nov 21, 2008 4:00 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Well… I checked w/ the G/f.

She said that she loves me… but she loves her kidney more. So I guess Gretzky fantasy camp will have to wait until next year :-(

It was a good idea though…

It’s probably better off anyway… Given the current state of the Economy she probably wouldn’t be able to get as much for her kidney as she would if Gas Prices were low, Times were peaceful… and the Big three were back to selling big trucks… Oh the Clinton years….

sigh

Hey I said Gelinas as well…do I not get any points??

by Psmith on Nov 24, 2008 11:16 AM EST reply actions   0 recs

Sorry, it was just for the “first” correct answer regarding Gelinas.

“Since the "Great One" is in the house, how about a little trivia thrown in? Which ex-Hurricane was involved in the trade which sent Wayne Gretzky to Los Angeles? First correct answer will earn an extra 10 points.”
