Pens @ Canes - Live Game Thread

Pittsburgh Penguins at Carolina Hurricanes, Oct 14, 2009 7:00 PM EDT


"Revenge is a dish best served cold."  Will Caniacs have something to cheer about at the end of the night?

(Sorry about the technical issues on the site this afternoon.  Tech support is looking into the cause.)

I just wanna see a good effort. 2 points and the W would be great, but baby steps towards not embarrassing yourself on home ice i guess.

While you’re waiting for the game – check out the conversation with Cam Ward on NHL Network yesterday that IHeartMASN posted in the Fanshot. Great insight from Cam on his love of Raleigh, the season and this game.

Let's go Canes!

Wow! Great find.

I “saw” this on NHL LIve! since we DVR it each day (NHL Network) and listen to it during meals.

Cam was a veritable billboard for this area. Makes it easier and easier to recruit free agents as more and more players settle here and broadcast their love.

I think the best hope for a victory would be les than 12 minutes in penalty’s and not get outscored by more than 6.

7-2 loss with good effort and less than 12 minutes in the box and I call it forward progress.

by Paladin6 on Oct 14, 2009 6:00 PM EDT reply actions  

7-2? Let’s give them some credit here. As long as they try, I’m happy. Less than 12 minutes in penalties would be nice too, but the trying for a whole 60 minutes part is what I’m after.

by caniacgirl on Oct 14, 2009 6:03 PM EDT up reply actions  

Don’t forget I already called this game 6-2 Pens with an empty netter.

Really nice article about J.Staal’s feelings about being an uncle. Interesting that the baby is in Thunder Bay with his mom-Eric can’t use sleep deprivation as an excuse.

Now that you mention it…..That was before they got so desperate that they obsessively accused their Division of rivals of diving so they could get at least a little help on offense, wasn’t it?

Right off the bat Staal got snuffed out and got two shots off by his line (Ruutu and Sammi). I like the way that line is working, it will eventually be about stopping the whole line and that will free Staal up.

That was what I was talking about earlier. That period was a victory for this team. Screw goals. Don’t run into eachother and stay out of the box. I mean it’s pee wee/squirt style stuff, but is critical. That was about the best they have looked all year.

I think Rocket Richards had 2 generations after him. Howe came back to play with his kid in his 50’s and that alone is far more than the Staals breeding farm. When they have full careers and move on to the business end, then you can make the comparisson. Comparing them now is like saying the top weage earner at the local McDonalds is as great a bread winner as Bill Gates.

Sutter before Boychuck unless very specific speed is needed. I also think Sutter may be maybe 2 call ups down the list..

A

by Paladin6 on Oct 14, 2009 8:43 PM EDT up reply actions  

If a scorer goes down, Boychuk belongs here ahead of Sutter. Sutter is more of a checker. Boychuk is absolutely dynamic. He could come up and be plugged into the first line, if needed, and look OK. Sutter couldn’t.

by Cory Lavalette on Oct 14, 2009 8:45 PM EDT up reply actions  

Keep in mind that Sutter is a center and they’d probably be hesitant to play him as anything but.

by caniacgirl on Oct 14, 2009 8:46 PM EDT up reply actions  

Ditto to both, but I think Boychuck is too far down to be brought up as a call up. He should be here to get the full NHL level deal. I don’t see him getting a call up unless we get a slew of wingers down. I agree that the kid can play and at this level. I just don’t think he is as “plug and play”" ready as say a Sutter or several of the others.
  Though the speed dynamic the kid brings would change game plans.

This is a win for the team, a win for Mo and a glimmer of what could be Canes hockey.

I am pleased as hell with the way this game was played. It’s how it’s played more often than who has more points. That’s why the NHL has the real deal no BS sissy play off best of seven.

I liked the effort tonight alot. The SOI is just bonus candy.

Canes win, score irrellavant…

wouldnt say that, he won a few games in the shootout befor and he is really good in penalty shots

by canescup2 on Oct 14, 2009 9:41 PM EDT up reply actions  

Alright…we took the SCC to a SO. We came back from 2-0. We looked decent for 60 minutes and good for 40. I’ll take it.

hey guys

As always with the Canes, real fun match up. Though Cam and MAF were going to be shutting everyone down all night in that shoot out.

Cheers to you guys, fun game.

PensBurgh penalty - Lavender - 2 Minutes for Excessive Stanley Cup Raising.

That was a win on almost every measure. If our main goal scorer would of on the shoot out we’d still be watching, if Cam would of stopped one of the first two we’d be winners. That’s where this team needs to be. On the edge. They have not been there until now. Friggin’ great game.

I loved it.
