WTF is SISU?

I think Hall. Even though Seguin has pushed into first, I think Hall will retake it before seasons end.

From tsr draft preview

Take note that most scouting services will have Taylor Hall pegged as the top player available in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft, the reality is that right now there really isn’t much separating some of the players at the top and they are essentially interchangeable.

Hall has been on NHL scouts radar for quite some time and really burst onto the scene with the Kingston Minor Midgets en route to being selected 2nd overall by the Windsor Spitfires in the 2007 OHL Priority Selection two seasons ago.

When you describe Hall’s game, the first word that comes to mind is explosive. Taylor Hall is an extremely good skater and has the ability to make things happen all on his own, very reminiscent of Pavel Bure in the mid 1990s. Hall is a very unique skater as he bends over almost at a 90 degree angle in his stride, but make no mistake, when he reaches his top speed there are very few that can catch him; and it doesn’t take him long to hit that high gear.

With that being said, there is some cause for concern in Hall’s game. He’s prone to making bad turnovers in transition, and sometimes he makes poor decisions with the puck in the offensive zone as well. While his plus/minus rating has been very solid the past two seasons, he is susceptible to being caught out of position, leading one to wonder how much playing for a strong Windsor club is sheltering some defensive concerns in his game.

This season will be a big one for Hall if he wants to be the first pick in 2010. Scouts will be looking for him to really break out offensively the way they expected him to last season. Hall has already showed that he can be a big time player in the playoffs, picking up both the OHL Playoffs and Memorial Cup MVP awards, but now is the time to show that he has the ability to put up big time numbers while proving that he isn’t a liability at the other end of the ice.

Seguin

Doesn’t matter who’s rated #1 at the end of the season.

Seguin is a legacy. He’s a lock if we have a shot at him. LOL!

Let’s put it this way. We’re bound to know him. And PK’s junior org thought enough of him to acquire him in the first place.

by Elsker on Nov 28, 2009 6:43 PM EST up reply actions  

He’s on everyone’s radar now, since Central Scouting rated him just ahead of Hall on the OHL list.

by Elsker on Nov 28, 2009 6:51 PM EST up reply actions  

anyone listening to WRAL/ – Mike is getting pretty worked up. No pregame interview because of conditions last night – is that because of the travel schedule or because no one was fit to speak on the record?

Also, Joni did not make the trip. It was the collision with Brandon that caused his issue, I think some folks were wondering if it was something that happened later, but ChuckandtheletterK referenced the collision as the cause.

It was in the first period, in front of our net. I’m not sure there would be anything in the PBP that would reference it. I took pictures at the time but I think I deleted them, so not exactly sure when.

Oh well that may have been part of it. I was at the other end of the ice and a very large man was sitting in front of me. I lost almost everything at that end of the ice.

Someone said he was playing himself into being too valuable to be traded. I now agree with them.

Cullen said he was extra motivated by the prospect of a trade. It was in his piece on NHL Live that was posted iin the fanshots by Iheartmasn.

Through Two Periods

Through two periods, actually very shocking:

 (1) Power play is terrible;

 (2) Aaron Ward is terrible;

(3) Brind’Amour confirms he cannot score a goal with an open, gaping net and no back pressure — that’s the reason he gets paid $3,000,000.00, I suppose.

Exactly. The Hurricanes, with the exception of three or four players, when healthy can compete. It is why next year will be a better year for the Hurricanes. We just have to keep most of our sanity this season.

I hate it when I’m right and I say that the “5 to 1” final score Caniacinthestand predicted is too nice on how the Canes are going to collapse.

If I’m wrong GREAT!

I don’t think I’m going to be shown I’m wrong. The Canes need a new coach and not now, yesterday.

I’m a NC State fan, the High School Varsity basketball team I play for has gone 4-47 the last two years including a 77-17 loss. I think this Hurricanes team is worse than the worst Washington nationals, Detroit Lions, NC State, Washington Wizards,Tampa Bay DEVIL Rays, New York Islanders, NJIT, and my 4-47 high school team. But the worst players from the worst teams those franchise’s have ever had, put them on skates, and they could probably beat this team. As long as they were losing going into the third period

here’s one – instead of pulling the goalie once we’re inevitably losing, we should just play with two goalies the whole game. our two goalies together might equal the talent of a starting nhl netminder!

by mojo944 on Nov 28, 2009 9:34 PM EST reply actions  

Entirely Predictable: One Step Closer to Taylor Hall

Exactly predictable. Brind’Amour can’t hit an empty net. Ward gives up goal after goal. Power Play is totally inefffective. Team melts down in the third period. We take another step closer to victory, i.e. being able to draft Taylor Hall.

  It is not so much watching hockey as watching a train wreck on ice. Still, that is part of the process for improvement. Here are my list of players who need to be on different teams next year:

1. Aaron Ward (not re-signed)
2. Wallin (not re-signed);
3. Brind’Amour (retired and bought out);
4. LaRose (traded);
5. Samsonov (traded);
6. Walker (not re-signed)

The savings on salary will allow for signings to fill whatever gaps are not filled by the players in Albany. We will see these huge failures of the Hurricanes replicate themselves until this season mercifully comes to an end — even nightmares like this season have to end sometime.

you're nuts if...

(1) you think eklund actually knows anything about anything. Dude’s a joke.

or

(2) you think this team will get rid of Eric Staal. THis was his third game back from what was clearly a major injury. It doesn’t happen automatically.

The team should, however, ignominiously waive Rod Brind’Amour. IN the last two seasons, he has played his way right out of the Hall of Fame and back into the AHL.

They would still have to keep Aaron Ward if we did that. We should call nhl on the fly and trade A Ward for Kevin Weekes and convert Weekes into a defensemen

No, we’re not in the locker room, but we can deduce from what we hear in the interviews of these players. Ruutu calls out the team for not working hard, including himself, with heart and soul. He gives suggestions for what the team can do it get better.

In tonight’s interview of Staal he was asked if 2 big saves from Miller took the momentum from the Canes. His response was basically “yeah, Miller was huge”. I would expect a captain to says “Yes, the goalie was hot, but that’s where we as a team need to come together to find a way to get one past the goalie.”

I’ve been to as many of the events available to the fans to meet the players and have talked one on one with many of them, including Staal. He’s a very nice, polite guy, takes time with the fans. I like Staal, I’m just saying we have better candidates to be Captain.

Well put. It seems like to often he pushes the poor play off and says that it wasn’t that bad or we just need to try a bit harder. Was it MM or JF on 99.9 that said after the San Jose loss only Manny and Ruutu would even talk to the press? Obviously it sucks for us and much more so for the players, but to me that is when a leader HAS to step up and lead by example.

MM, let the FANS talk, you jerk. We know what you think, because you say the same 4 sentences over and over.
