Live Game Thread - Canes at Coyotes

Carolina Hurricanes at Phoenix Coyotes, Feb 7, 2009 9:00 PM EST



Next Game

Carolina Hurricanes
@ Phoenix Coyotes

Saturday, Feb 7, 2009, 9:00 PM EST
Jobing.com Arena

Complete Coverage >



The starting goalies-


GP MIN W L T EGA GA GAA SA SV SV% SO
2008 - Cam Ward 40 2338 20 16 3 7 99 2.54 1118 1019 .911 3


GP MIN W L T EGA GA GAA SA SV SV% SO
2008 - Ilya Bryzgalov 44 2531 18 20 4 4 120 2.84 1322 1202 .909 2

 

Will newbie Jussi Jokinen have an immediate impact?  Will he make it to the game on time?  I wouldn't expect a police escort to the arena like countryman Tuomo Ruutu received in Raleigh.


GP G A P +/- PIM PPG SHG GWG GTG SOG PCT
2008 - Jussi Jokinen 46 6 10 16 -8 16 2 0 0 0 64 9.4

Nothing works for ‘evil’ people today, apparently! My kitchen sink leaks, it rusted through my turkey pan, and my oven is set for 300, but is actually 450 (needless to say my dessert is a little on the done side!)
bad times for evil people….

The Canes have Jokinen centering LaRose and Eaves and Sutter is back on the fourth line with Petruzlek and Bayda. But Jokinen is listed as a LW. He must have had some experience at center at some point

so as a valid ? what do y’all think has been keeping eaves from finding the back of the net? Like I said with a shot and moveslike that he shoudl be getting close to his twentieth

by wylde4canes on Feb 7, 2009 11:11 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

good question. he has looked better than his stats, but no results. maybe this will turn things around

by Bob Harwood Waeghe on Feb 7, 2009 11:12 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

He’s also got 4 hits so far tied w/ Gleason, Eaves is smokin tonight

Eaves occasionally hits everything that moves, and then other nights falls off the radar…

shoulder injuries are rough … I think he played early still not all the way back, lost some conf. and found himslef playing on lower lines

Rodney’s played well .. but I dunno how much more of a crush Tripp and JF could have one him. He’s been above average .. but not more than a bottom pairing guy.

Brind’Amour has not played the past 2 games, and the team has looked great. coincidence?

by Bob Harwood Waeghe on Feb 7, 2009 11:37 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

more like de ja vu

by jenniwa30 on Feb 7, 2009 11:37 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

yes and no
I think the team has found some spark, but at the same time, Rod’s plus/minus is really telling (read he would have cost us a goal or two, so we would have lost to SJ, but it wouldn’t have mattered tonight – except that it might have changed the dynamics of the game if that goal had come early…)
so maybe my long answer really is a “no coincidence”…

by Andrea's evil twin on Feb 7, 2009 11:41 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

you put some intense thought into that answer..:-)

by Bob Harwood Waeghe on Feb 7, 2009 11:43 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

i think had the philly game ended like this, instead of the major breakdown, this team would be battling with Washington for the division lead. You need some confidence building every now and then
