Canes @ Wild - Live Game Thread
Carolina Hurricanes at Minnesota Wild, Oct 24, 2009 8:00 PM EDT
Caniacs have to be asking themselves, what else can go wrong? One of their top line forwards was injured in just the second game of the season. They have been missing one defenseman after another all season long. Now a fan favorite has a brain cramp, puts his team in a horrible position, and gets suspended for three games.
Sometimes it's not easy to be a hockey fan. Will the Canes fly home late tonight with some positive vibes after a win, or will this end up being the road trip from hell?

I’m going with the road trip from hell

what effect does placing Cole on IR have on getting him back anytime soon? are there any ramifications for this action that are unwanted?
Wait for the game to get going before you start. Just in case it drives you to drink. Alcohol poisoning is not a pretty thing.
Funny you should mention that, I got 2 left, gonna be a long, LONG game.
Hey I’ve been consistant, I didn’t want him back, resigned etc.
I’ll stop, but come on, it’s me, didn’t you miss my shining, seering insight last night?
I see the “6”. I wish, towns and the nearest beer is a good 20 minutes. I ain’t wanting a beer that bad.
A
Bob and Cory and probably HM know mor, but I bewlieve it allows for more cxall ups. By being on IR it vacates a spot. I think there is an amount of time you have to be on it and then I guess you get to call up more guys??? So maybe more rats on the way?
Not sure just a stab.
A
The time thimg was what i was concerned about. I thought that was the case also, just couldn’t remember what it was…
Real shot in the dark here I think it’s 10 days. I have no idea why that’s in my head and the rest of the voices in there don’t know either..
A
It’s seven days (per Wikipedia), but I could swear I’ve seen that “backdated” before when invoked. Still, a week is probably not unrealistic for Cole, so probably no delay in his return.
Lines and D-pairings from CanesNow
Brandon Sutter made it in plenty of time. No. 16 on the ice in pregame … Sutter is centering the third line with Sergei Samsonov and Jussi Jokinen on the wings. …
The other lines remain the same as for the Avs game, with Rod Brind’Amour on Matt Cullen’s line. …
Defensively, it’s Joe Corvo-Nic Wallin, Aaron Ward-Joni Pitkanen, Andrew Alberts-Jay Harrison
Hey look on the bright side, the Hurricanes have picked up a new corporate sponsor since this roadtrip started:

Anyone watching the HD feed getting an absolute slide show for the second night in a row?
We are convinced it is FSC, commercials are coming through fine, and the SD feed is fine.
FSC = Amateur hour.
We’re great in Chapel Hill – no problem. It may be the cable or connection in your house? (Unless it’s the only HD channel that troubels you)

I’ve tried. Just kidding.
I was actually in the house for his first “fight”. It was really funny. He was so proud of himself, but I don’t think he threw one punch before the refs separated the two of them.
The kids got sand, he’s a Sutter. I think hes filled his “call up” roll very well in the first.
The guys gotta stop these stupid penalty’s. Thier first 9 shots all came on the PP as well as the goal.
A
Paladin – you’re right about all 9 Monnesota shots on the PP. That’s stunning!! And if we can stay out of the box helpful, for the rest of the game.

He should have been living with Brind’Amour for the last two summers, that would do the trick.
Still not a crook!
perhaps with Pavel Brendl instead, fill up on some KK

The penalties are really becoming a bad habit. I thought early on it was just an abberation, but we’re starting to look like the Flyers out there.

amazing how it’s gone from least penalized to easily the most penalized

They talked to Sammi at the first intermission and apparently he barely made it on time. Sammi seemed pleased with his hustle and effot and youth. He must be so excited – just what that Canes need: to see this game thru his eyes.

If this kid was here in the beginning this would be a different looking team, theyu would of developed differently and I think better.
JR, You suck!
I’m just mad. The kid is playing like he belongs, what else can you ask?

Crap, I hate penalties that drag into the next period.
by PittsburghCaniac on Oct 24, 2009 9:40 PM EDT reply actions
I actually like them split into 2 at 1-minute in each period. Seems like that helps the PK cause it breaks the momentum and setting up the cycle for the team with the advantage.

I tell you what, Pits is earning Staal type money and minutes. He’s gonna be expensive next contract. He looks like a man among boys. tt was calling Staal that the other night, I just don’t it. Pit skates into the zone 1 on 4 over and over

that radio ad about the hat trick is annoying
“since then 30,000 hats have been tossed to the ice”
I saw at least 5,000 on John Deere Hat Night when Staal got his hat trick.
Has to be more than 30,000.
Doesn’t really surprise me-no Ruutu, no Timmy.
But as long as they beat them on the big scoreboard, I’m good.
You mean you aren’t happy with 1 point from the tie. Us and the Isles seem to like that.
