[Al14]

Carolina is down, lets kick them

Fixed!

How many games in a row do we have at least a point in? 5? 6?

6. 9 of a possible 12 points. 8 of a possible 10 in our last 5 games.

IIRC 6 now

We finally beat Boston, didn't we?
Time to end our struggles against the Canes.

Woah, everything is much better than it seems.

It was never that bad. The only bad game was @ Winnipeg where we were completely flat.

Remember when we played Winnipeg at home (the 4-1 come back to force a shootout?) We lost... but we moved up to 6th from losing lol. Getting points even when you lose is always nice. It's how the Sens are in 5th still.

Carolina is down, lets put the knockout into them

A reg win would put us 10 points up on them. I realize they have 3 gms in hand, but making up those 10 points would be a pretty tall order.

Woah, everything is much better than it seems.

The five game skid kind of skewed things because people focused on the fact that they went five games without a 2 point win that they forgot that the team still picked up loser points along the way. Honestly, it was a good time to start seeing as how they had no loser points until that 5 game skid happened.

With all the "Sky is falling!!!!!" talk around the GDTs/PGTs lately its kinda funny

LOL so true.

If we make the post-season, will Hughson be calling the games or will Bob Cole?

I'm assuming Hughson would be busy with Vancouver?

If that's the case, that'll be awesome.

I'd hope it is cole or our own LTV crew.

IF things turn out as they are right now, make no mistake; CBC will take Eastern series and TSN picks up Vancouver. So Hughson quite likely.

 

[Puckstuff]

interesting game I actually wasn't aware that the canes were missing both goalies. No matter what this is a carolina team that has been good against us recently and there fighting for their playoff lives... add in the fact the Staal brothers and semin can get hot at any moment and there's a possibility for another nail biter. I would like to think we could put them away in this game just like they would put us away if we were missing both Reims and Scrivens, but even the most unkown rookie goalies sometimes put up huge games. I'm really hoping we win man this is the type of game you just have to win and we should if our team plays their best.

We're 4th in the league on the PK, 14th on the PP. Nice.

 

[GenericFan2*]

I think this will be the game the Leafs beat the Canes; they're slumpin' and we're just gettin' on a roll.

2 big points up for grabs!!

Yeah we just need to seriously tighten up defensivley I feel like it's going to be another track meet tonight

Biggest turn around and the reason they are where they are... not sure what assistant is in charge of the P.K but well done. Also hoping Leo comes back he's a big part of the P.K.

Also anyone no if Mac will be back thursday?

I really hate that there's such huge gap after the Ottawa game. - they don't play all the way until the next week on thursday... A good week for them to do it because the Jays will be on but it's annoying for our team... they grind it out 7 games in 10 days then they have a huge break like that? I don't no if I like that.

Everybody knows Peters though, he's like a slightly better Pogge. We just have to put pucks to the net.

 

[FlareKnight]

Well just have to bring our best game and find a way to get points. This game is definitely important with the games at hand Carolina has. Need to really put them in the rear-view mirror.
