Music to my ears, wish I was attending tonight's game, instead I sit and wait at the Dallas airport for my delayed flight. Hopefully this gives the Canes some energy.

I guess BP convinced RF that Lindholm isn't a center (again) and he brought him up a center. Hey, after getting bombed 8-2 the past two games, obviously he can do whatever he wants, but it's pretty obvious to me that Lindholm and Aho aren't going to be centers here for the foreseeable future.

So I haven't been able to watch the last 5 games. But during are nice little 3 game win streak wasn't one of Aho or Lindy were drawn in at center? Then the two losses came, the offense dried up, and neither of them played down the middle?

 

[bleedgreen]

BP has said in the past he sees Lindy as a winger, hasn't he? Maybe it was RF. Either way it seems they only move him there for a shakeup more than doing it seriously, which is one of the few mind numbing things I get annoyed about with the coaching/GM. That and dmen in the shootout. I'm pretty good with everything else.

 

[AD Skinner]

Peters clearly does not see either as a center option, which really says something when the alternatives are ryan and rask. Not sure what it says, but it's something

 

[Joe McGrath]

The problem with Aho and Lindholm is that neither works well with Skinner so it mitigates the void created by moving them off wing. I honestly think just sticking Rask on Skinner’s hip and just telling him to dive the puck in 53s direction and get the f*** out of his way is the best course of action. Rask, while not good, has been perfectly fine in his own end.

I am a fan of a McGinn-Staal-Lindholm 2nd kind of they could ever come up with a legit #1 line somehow.

Me when thinking about today's game. I'm a little of this:

If I go to the game tonight is it usually possible to get cheap seats off a scalper or at the box office?

 

[Tryamw]

I've typically picked my tickets off stubhub not too expensively but then again I avoid the big draws. (Pens Leafs Rangers Sabers. (Intentional)) but never tried this late.

 

[tarheelhockey]

God I miss the days when the parking lot was full of tailgaters. Decent number of them out today with the nice weather!

 

[Lempo]

Did you just post a mother****ing jinx into the GDT?

We all have to do our part.

 

[Tryamw]

Apparently it'll be Aho Rask TT. as a line.

I absolutely don't know but someone was talking about there being a capacity crowd tonight.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Shutout, shutout, shutout, shutout, shutout.

 

[cptjeff]

Seeing Skinner in the warmup jersey and camo hat made me think "Good ol' boy hick night", not "military appreciation night".

 

[Unsustainable]

My friend is there tonight, he’s the really tall guy on the ice taking photos with the military.

He’s 6’10 with a camera.

 

[Tryamw]

Shutout, shutout, shutout, shutout, shutout.

You say shutout I see Shoot out shoot out shoot out.... We all know how that ends.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Please tell me somebody saved a picture of Chantel in the EOD suit waving around a bomb. That was hilarious.

 

[Joe McGrath]

Skinner-Ryan-Williams is a no good, terrible, awful idea. I hope I’m wrong.

f*** Kid Rock and his sampling of Warren Zevon to make that dogshit song.

Maybe BP has gotten to the point that he realizes it doesn't matter who's with Skinner, so why try. My big problem with today's lineup is that if we're going to call up a top prospect and use him at center, how about we don't saddle him with Nordstrom/DiGiuseppe on his wings?
