He doesn't warrant icetime. Guys that can do what he does and other stuff too.

There is a hot wife joke somewhere in here.
The PK has been abysmal, even going back to the stretch run last season. Since February 15th, the Canes have killed off just 50 of the last 71 (70.4%.) The goaltending hasn't been there SH, but opposing PPs are moving the puck around the zone without much resistance from the PKers. There has to be some adjustment, right?

Zykov took an UGLY Tom Wilsonesque hit in the first from JT Miller. Not so much sure it's a problem that Rod has with the kid as it was concussion.
Honestly that hit should be looked at by DOPS

I mean, maybe? Or maybe he's just an AHL Superstar.

He *should* be on the power play, IMO. He had success there in the preseason and at the end of last season. And our PP is struggling. Using Faulk and Williams on PP1 while Hamilton and Zykov can't get PP time is a mistake, IMO. There's no doubt in my mind that RBA is a great coach. Guys will go through a wall for him. But he's relying on veterans on special teams and it's hurting us.

I mean, we did have 36 minutes worth of penalties in this game, and Z doesn't play on either special team, so that makes a difference.
he should probably be on the PP though.

You MUST
Maybe so. But he did well in the couple games he has last season and from what we saw in preseason. I'd just like to see what he does with some more chances is all
This should be a like a lot post
Was gonna write pretty much the same thing even with regular time loss, but the fact that the 5v5 game was so dominating is the most promising sign. This was a different performance compared to Peters' corsi games.
Game was almost lost on special teams.
Goal tending was poor tonight, but there's nothing new about that. This team can win with mediocre and even sub par goalies. It looks like it'll be a long season in Minny.
+ PHI lost
+ WSH may lose
+ CBL lost
+ basically the whole metro lost. amazing.

So yeah, just looked up the TOI chart for Zykov. 2 shifts in the 2nd after that JT Brown hit and then nothing. Dude was probably dazed out of his damn mind.

With that goaltending we are not. We can improve special teams, but we can't improve the goalies.
Also, it's a long season. Canes won't be able to play this uptempo at all times. There will be games when they need to play Pastor Bill's hockey. If god exists he must keep Aho healthy, or we screwed.

If he was sitting on the bench, he was available. If he was dazed out of his mind and was sitting on the bench, the Canes could face serious discipline.

The metro has been good to amazing for a long time and I don't think I've seen this many teams lose at one time since the division was formed.

If I was a betting man, I'd put the farm on Winnipeg tomorrow. I don't see how the Canes can put together enough of an effort to make it work in that building as gassed as they must be.

I'm not superstitious, but I am a little stitious
Did we even win 4 games in a row all of last season?

It's early in the season. The legs are still fresh, and they got a good jolt of adrenaline tonight. I suspect they might be just fine tomorrow.
