Let’s hope for a strong start. Maybe Staal skating at practice will give them a lift.

Canes dominated that period.
Sucks to come away with a one goal deficit because for awhile there that was shaping up to be one of the better 1st periods they’ve had.
Corvo had some odd miscues in his own end, let a few pucks drift past him not fully aware of what was going on. Hope he isn’t over thinking things right now.

Brind'Amour
I think it was Brind’Amour’s best game. He had some odd moments, as when he was ahead of the pack on a breakaway and it was not a thing of beauty. In my view, he can make his best contribution on the fourth line with less than ten minutes of time on ice. It helps the team to have four lines that can play.

Staal's Return and Make Up of the Lines
Interesting that Maurice said he might keep the Whitney/Sutter/Cole and the Jokinen/Cullen/Ruutu lines intact. He also said he might try Staal at wing. It would be crazy either to send Sutter down or to change the Jokinen/Cullen/Ruutu line.
Staal needs top minutes to be effective. It would be very interesting to see how a Cole/Sutter/Staal line might work. That is a big, fast line. I’ll be interested to see what others think. As long as Brind’Amour is on the fourth line, and as long as Sutter is getting top minutes along with Staal, and as long as the Jokinen/Cullen/Ruutu line is intact, the lines can probably shift around some. On the other hand, it has taken almost one quarter of the season to get lines that seem to work well together. It’s always a bad idea to try to fix things that aren’t broken.

I heard that from Mo post game too – about keeping the top 2 lines intact because the chemistry seems to be working – even after Staal comes back. I mean – I love that idea – but I have no idea how that’s gonna actually work. Mo going to put Staal out with Walks/LaRose and Sammi…..? As a 3rd line? Never in a million years..
And then, when Staal and Walker come back, Dwyer’s back to Albany, but who else will be out? or named “healthy scratch”? – or maybe someone else will be injured by then…

Lines After Staal Returns -- Some Guesses Based on Maurice Comments
Here goes with a pure guess:
Whitney/Sutter/Staal
Jokinen/Cullen/Ruutu
Samsonov/Yelle/Cole
LaRose/Brind’Amour/Walker

Y'never know
Save these – in case you’ve nailed it. Really.
but observations (which you may even share)
1- Staal on Sutter’s wing blows my mind. earth-shattering.
2 – Cole on the 3rd line is hard to grasp – though possibly right. Have he and Sammi ever been on the same line -even last spring? Don’t remember how that looked. Interesting combination of opposites. I like Yelle on the 3rd line. he’s really emerged this month
2 – TKO has actually been getting increased TOI the last couple games, I believe. And I like what I’ve seen. Lots of energy.I’d hate to see him the healthy scratch.

So, all my teams suck!

I couldn’t figure out how to do that unless Jokinen/Cullen/Ruutu because a third line and I thought they should be playing second line minutes or unless the Jokinen/Cullen/Ruutu lines was split up — which Maurice said he was not going to do.
I think next year Boychuk may well be on the first line with Staal. I am assuming there will be a top tier power forward on that line as well. I am guessing that kind of trade will occur before Thanksgiving.

My Prediction is a Trade before Thanksgiving 2009
Again, I could be completely mistaken; but my guess is that Jim Rutherford will make a trade before Thanksgiving 2009. He has said repeatedly that he is committed to making the team younger, bigger, and faster. Jim Rutherford is extremely straightforward and when he says something, he follows through until it is done. Accordingly, all I can envision is that our players with the most trade value would be (1) Whitney [with his NTC]; (2) Cullen [who is playing great and whose line is rocking]; (3) Corvo — who has had some confidence issues and whose contract is up this year; (4) LaRose [who is hustling but only has one goal] and (5) Cole — but it seems clear the Hurricanes already have a shortage of power forwards and Cole has been banging bodies around and is there to provide physicality and speed.
Based on what I see, I don’t see any trade involving Whitney [unless he really, really likes the team and the opportunity to end his career someplace other than Carolina] or Cullen. So if there is a trade, it seems that Corvo and possibly Corvo and LaRose will be traded. I don’t think Cole is going to be traded because power forwards are very difficult to find. The acquisition of Kostopoulos and LaRose’s new contract meant he had to score and produce points at a top nine rate.
After looking at the options and the likely emergence of Rodney, McBain, and Carson for defense and Bowman and Boychuk next year, I think Corvo will be traded and that LaRose probably will be traded as well.
At this point, I can’t see Rutherford trading players who are producing and particularly players who are working well with Sutter.

I’m not sure, but I think your baiting?
JR is liar and a half! Mo’s job is secure…the week before he’s replaced by Lavi and then back at ya, exit meetings aren’t critical and Lavi is secure..whack, in comes Mo. What about Rodney and the spot is his to lose, and Sutter..Look JR, is liar. That is a good trait in a GM, I think, so I don’t get your ref. to his statements which arer bullshit. "Younger, bigger, faster "turned out to be older, fatter and slower.
JR couldn’t sell his BS in a desert or ice in hell.
A firesale with hopes of reaquiring in the summer is his only shot and right now isn’t the right time. <y .02 is you don’t see squat for a good spell.

Jim Rutherford
I simply disagree with your assessment of Jim Rutherford. I think he is a very honorable man. As a General Manager of an NHL team, there are limitations which I think are obvious and almost self-evident to the degree he can be candid. I also think he made a conscious decision this year to go with some veterans on one year deals because he felt the team as constituted with some veterans would make a deep run into the playoffs. He would then focus next year on transitioning to more youth. I’ve had the pleasure of talking with him in detail about the team early this year and found him to be extremely direct and open.
I checked around and others who knew him had the same experience in their dealings with him. “Younger, bigger, faster” is shown to me at the recent draft and I think that pattern will be evident in any trade. With regard to Rodney, my take is the Tom Rowe, Paul Maurice, and Ron Francis felt Rodney needed another year of experience and strengthening. With regard to Sutter, it was a hard decision in my view. Rutherford really treasures Sutter’s ability. As I see it, Rutherford wanted to make certain Sutter had time to develop at least half the year in the AHL to get confidence and strength. Sutter is the real deal. In an ideal world, Sutter, Boychuk, and Bowman would have had time to hone their skills in the AHL to the point that there was far less risk that they would lose confidence when they were playing full time next year. Sutter is amazing and he surprised even the experts with the speed of his development.
The new players added included Aaron Ward, Alberts, and Harrison. Wallin was by necessity given more top line minutes than in recent seasons. Aaron Ward must surely be hurt because his play has been extremely disappointing. Alberts has done exactly what has been asked of him and nobody expects him to be blazing fact. On the other hand, he is a highlight film of hits.
Wallin is Wallin and speed is absolutely not his forte.
In short, I think Jim Rutherford will not engage in a widespread firesale; but I think he will obtain another power forward. It is my guess and only my guess.
So, obviously you and I have vastly different opinions about the integrity of Jim Rutherford. From my personal contact with him and what others who have dealt with him in various ways have confirmed, I found him to be a person who is honorable, frank, and humble.

Well, rather than being a reach around, look to his track record. Liar, liar, liar and this year he added failure to the list. Enjoy your exper. dream world. I bet he wishes it were reality, but it’s not.

To me, this highlights the fact that Cullen (good as he is, mind you) is now expendable for this year’s team.
That’s why recent trade rumors involving him seem credible to me. Sutter can easily be Cullen as far as function for the team.
What was once thought to be our future third-line center is now our once and future second-line center. His potential has been upgraded in the org’s view.

New Lines After Staal Returns
Cole is an interesting issue. It is possible to run a Sutter/Staal/Cole line; but that changes the dynamic of Whitney and Sutter with Sutter centering. Cole did not fare well in Edmonton on the right wing.
Kostpoulos has been underutilized thus far. He was brought to the team to bring intensity and physicality. I agree that he has done a tremendous job and deserves much more ice time than he has received thus far. This issue of time on ice is going to be much more complex next year.
by abramsdoug on Nov 22, 2009 1:17 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
I like the idea of having 2 centers on each of those lines. That gives them the opportunity to change who takes the drop to maximize the use of position off of face-offs, or if one of the guys gets thrown out. But it gives them a lot of options to plan some quick-plays off the drop.

i'm only 5'4" so him being "little" is funny to me

I am 5’4" too but that is a tiny man especially for his position.

I’d be willing to be it’s closer to 6 feet. They tend to add a grace inch or so.

The wife says 6’1" 183 lb (without even looking it up).

I’d make a joke, but she’s not the only one that can do height and weights without looking.

And she doesn’t even work state fairs or carnivals.

Maybe it’s something y’all could look into as a second career…

Jen and I were going to offer our services as home nurses. Does she have any first aid training?
by caniacgirl on Nov 21, 2009 9:55 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
She’s researching online training as we speak.
by Sandbagger on Nov 21, 2009 9:57 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Then she is welcome to join us. I’m not sure about the pay, but chances are that isn’t really a factor in her decision to accept.

I’m sure she must have some talents we could use, can she cook?
by jenniwa30 on Nov 21, 2009 9:58 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
OOohhh ooohh, I can cook. I promise I only burn the onions when I’m on here with you lot…

You do realize that Cam is the only one in need of a home nurse right? Other people aren’t on the list. LOL
But between your cooking ability and the medical training (albeit limited) Jen and I bring, I think we’re a lock for the job.

My bad, I thought we were talking for the team in general… I’ll leave him to you then. Just keep me in mind for the future, in the unfortunate event that certain player(s) might need our care…

Coming into a thread late is similar to coming into a conversation late, but at least I can scroll up and see what in the world you’re talking about.

It’s good to see this team find their identity. They fought hard, made good passes, got into the dirty areas, and beat a team well ahead of them in the standings.
When Staal and Cam are back, hopefully the confidence they’ve earned during this tough stretch will only make them better. Good time for a quick roadie, and good that Staal and Leights are going on the trip. Chemistry seems to be so important for these guys; i’m excited to see that they are starting to pull together.
Long row to hoe, but I don’t think any of us would trade a cough playoff spot cough for a high draft pick.

Only thing I am dissappointed in is the fact that Joni or Nici didn’t score so all the Scandanavian would have scored. But lets not all get toooooo happy. Last time we won in a shootout and then won the next game in regulation, we dropped the next 14 sooo…..hopefully that won’t be the case.
