Hot take... Canes are gonna win the presidents trophy

 

[HisIceness]

That was a cool moment. Dundon is definitely more Mark Cuban and less Peter Karmanos

 

[Novacane]

The big bad menace Eric Staal next up

 

[Stickpucker]

That Svechnikov framed puck

Now that’s cool

Do other players get those? Did Foggy get one too?

 

[Dishface]

I'm astonished that going full NHL 19 last offseason worked.

 

[Drivebytrucker]

The best part of this game is how they slowed it down after the 5th goal. Totally changed style of play and neutralized them

 

[Roboturner913]

Handsome Rod for Jack Adams pls

It’s October Staal, he won’t even skate

Edler is an idiot................5 game suspension.
Young bucks are fast, skilled and have a passion to win!!

 

[Roboturner913]

have good talent, gotta use it

what a novel approach

meanwhile Pastor Bill is furious bc some guy in Calgary strayed a foot outside his lane

 

[tarheelhockey]

Handsome Rod for Jack Adams pls

If he keeps this up he’ll be the runaway favorite, like Gallant last year. Adams voters love an underdog story.

 

[Hulkacaniac]

Funny how a lot of people were bullish on the flyers when their goaltending is just as bad as ours

 

[go comets]

thatcher demko is their hope

Hes actually out on concussion protocol right now....

 

[Peanut]

I gotta say some entertaining hockey so far going to be scary when Svechnikov starts going off.

 

[WreckingCrew]

PSA....Hurricanes have 7 guys with 1+ PPG pace right now!!

Being forced to center some pedestrian wingers certainly doesn't help his introduction to the NHL.

Necas's issue is that he really doesn't fit with the "stops and starts, hound the puck" style. He's a circler. Teravainen is, too. IMO, that's why they're both off to shaky starts. The style that's working for 90 percent of the team isn't really a style those two are comfortable with. We'll see if they adjust -- I know TT is streaky, but I think this is a factor as well -- but I don't think it's a lack of effort or being overmatched, in Necas's case.

All Vancouver could do in the last 10 minutes was ice the puck. It was pretty amazing.

Do I need to go back and find all the times I said exactly this? St. Louis, too. Lots of teams have shaky goaltending. We're far from alone on this one.

TBF, the 06 teams PP was not phenominal despite the fact they scored 6 goals a game.

TBD but there is movement in the needle.

At the very least we're fun this year, that's something we haven't been able to say in a while.

 

[CandyCanes]

Just got back from the game. WOOOOOO!! This is fun!

Side note: I’d like to see Necas sent down for a 5-10 game stint. He still looks like he’s adjusting to the North American ice. He’s very loose with the puck, which you can get away with on the bigger ice, but not so much on the NA ice. I see the toolbox though, he’s going to be a heck of a player in a few years.

Maybe give Nicolas Roy the callup? See what he’s got. If I recall correctly Roy & Zykov played a lot together last year? I could see a McGinn - Roy - Zykov potentially clicking as a 4th line.

 

[Svechhammer]

Seriously! More than anything, that will draw fans back in.

Maybe this Brindamour guy knows what he's doing.

That being said, 78 game losing streak incoming

With all of the comparisons between Foegele and Cole, I realize what we have seen is an extremely small sample size, but I dare say that Foegele may ultimately have a higher ceiling than Cole did or would have had.
