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

by canescup on Oct 24, 2009 7:40 PM EDT via mobile reply actions  

what effect does placing Cole on IR have on getting him back anytime soon? are there any ramifications for this action that are unwanted?

by Canesfan1 on Oct 24, 2009 7:40 PM EDT reply actions  

I think it allows for Sutter to be recalled?

Still not a crook!

by TrickyD26 on Oct 24, 2009 7:42 PM EDT up reply actions  

I don’t think it carries any negatives, just makes a roster spot to bring someone up???

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.

I have already had a HUGE glass of wine, I better slow down or I wont make the game, exhausting day.

Getting old? That’s funny, my mom stopped aging when I turned six.

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.

by Paladin6 on Oct 24, 2009 7:48 PM EDT up reply actions  

I think you’re right. We would have been over the allowed number of players if Cole wasn’t placed on the IR.

by caniacgirl on Oct 24, 2009 7:43 PM EDT up reply actions  

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.

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

by Paladin6 on Oct 24, 2009 7:45 PM EDT up reply actions  

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

by caniacgirl on Oct 24, 2009 7:47 PM EDT reply actions  

I’m worried about those D-pairings, they just don’t seem to have ANY chemistry????

Well at the rate they’ve been changing, I don’t know if I can blame them. I really hope Timmy gets better soon.

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.

Joni’s actually been smiling a lot lately, especially at practice, ever since he came back. We saw him making clown faces at the kids at the glass the other day.

by LTD on Oct 24, 2009 10:01 PM EDT up reply actions  

Saw that tweet, and it made me smile.

by Elsker on Oct 24, 2009 10:01 PM EDT up reply actions  

I think I’ve only seen him smile in person once. I’ve also seen him wink. But clown faces? That’s cute. I may have to rethink my position on him.

has Corvo taken a shot…as directed?

by Caniac233 on Oct 24, 2009 10:03 PM EDT reply actions  

Even more than that, I want to see that lateral movement off the wall that we saw from him when he first came here.

I was “At last, we have that weapon!” when I first saw it. But haven’t seen it lately.

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.

Disagree. May not score much, but creates lots of space, matches Staal’s speed, and does hit.

by Elsker on Oct 24, 2009 10:27 PM EDT up reply actions  

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.

I don’t like dissing teams because as soon as you do you’re asking for trouble. But if we’re satisfied with the same thing that NYI is, then we have some issues.

We’re not happy, but we’re not going to throw the team under the bus either. Until we are number 30 on the last day of the regular season, we are not the worst team in hockey.

this, my friend, should inscribed around the RBC Center

The list of goalies who played well only to be ruined by bad D and no O. Remember Weekes in 2003?

I’d still put him in the running for best on the ice.

The two penalties kind of soured him for me. But yeah I could see that.

he had a good night, as did Pit (with the exception of 2 penalties), Whitney had a decent night

Walker had a decent night, I didnt add him to the list because all 3 hits he had were in the 1st period???? other than that he was OK

yea penaltiess happen though, i feel like if we hadnt taken 8 over all 3 or 4 are normal

by chrisj on Oct 24, 2009 10:55 PM EDT reply actions  

The one that bothered me was the one at the very end of the game. That’s a time when you need to be exra careful since it can cost you the game in regulation.

alberts and corvo were quiet but played well, and harrison saw barely any ice time,
and did conboy ever come back out after the first with the two fights?

John and Tripp beat a hasty retreat off the air, as well.

by Elsker on Oct 24, 2009 11:00 PM EDT reply actions  

Takes a four-game winning streak to undo the damage to date.

Then we’d be 6-5-3 and close to an acceptable points-per-game pace.

Hard to see that happening anytime soon, but it could happen somewhere along the way.

by Elsker on Oct 24, 2009 11:02 PM EDT up reply actions  

I’d be happy just to see them pull out of the dive and fly level for a while.

WHY CAN’T THIS TEAM PUT 2 SEASONS TOGETHER??? I’m tired of this damn roller coaster….holy &*#$! This start has cost the Canes the playoffs…no question! Damn, I’m pissed!
