Don't let the Canes sweep the season series

Jeff Skinner, who leads the Canes this season in both goals (15) and points (32), is a point shy of 300 in his career.

So that will happen

 

[Der Jaeger]

Dump-and-chase vs Carolina's mobile, puck moving D.

Carolina wins.

 

[Oakstream]

This team destroys your hope hope in playoffs. Just when you give up they start playing good. Makes you hope again. Just to lose many games so you give up again. Now they got 7 of 8 points and the hope returns once again. Just to see them lose a game they should not against Tampa. I expect a loss here to further damage my brief hope for playoffs.

 

[Dubi Doo]

The Canes sweeping Buffalo would just add to the disappointment that has been the 2016-2017 season.

[Dingo44]

I'll be there and it's also my birthday!

Hoping to not see another SO loss. That happened when I was there in December and seems to happen more than not when I see them in Raleigh.

I agree, I remember the 10 round shoot out a few years ago, awesome ending but didn't get home until 1am... seems we always go to at least OT

 

[Weltschmerz]

Is it confirmed that Nilsson plays again or could we see Ullmark?

 

[Aladyyn]

Does it really matter who starts? We're not scoring more than 1 goal anyways.

 

[26CornerBlitz]

 

[Thorton02]

I'd like to win this game. I'd also like to see Eichel dominate large chunks of the game and have a multi-goal night.

 

[Zip15]

The heroic run to 88 pts and the 13th overall pick starts tonight!

[ManiacCaniac]

Blitz, I love your detailed, insightful, and informative posts. That is, whenever you say something.

14th

 

[Snippit]

Canes move the puck and transition well. We don't.

If we go down by 1 or 2 early, we won't be catching up.

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

Just lose so we can stop being teased by this team.

 

[brian_griffin]

Not gonna drive the 2.5 hrs to see this one live, either. Away game on a back-to-back combined with Bylsma's system screams a low-energy slow pace effort from BUF. Would also need to leave work now, and I have work deadlines today. If it were Saturday, with travel rest for the Sabres, then I'd go.

 

[kirby11]

At least I'll get to enjoy watching a team transition out of the d zone well and attack as a cohesive unit. Too bad it's not the sabres.

 

[Jim Bob]

It's interesting to see the Sabres in the middle of the pack.

 

[jc17]

I'm pretty sure the sabres do a decent job of getting scoring chances even though the corsi stinks, which is why expected goals isn't that bad.

Edit: 5th worst in corsi%.
5th best in Scoring Chance%. What is wrong with this team?

 

[ZZamboni]

Beat the candy canes!

3-1



I'm done with wanting them to lose. That's so 2014-2015. Moving on.
