Carolina has the best record in the league since New Years Eve

some stuff

If you were talking about one specific post in a thread, you should've quoted that person instead of responding to them 6-7 posts later with what appeared to be kind of a big non-sequitur.

And I'll make whatever comparisons I want. I have almost 26,000 likes. You have 500. Stay in your lane.

But it was about Rask/Nino trade and about the value of Nino. Then of course it matters how he scores and with whom. Nino doesn't suddenly become "great" player by leeching from elite center. He hasn't earn that benefit of the doubt. Please don't make your ridiculous comparisons with HHoF players.

Did this post just trade Niederreiter for Ty Rattie?

This is one of the saddest things I've ever read.

Still don't understand how this whole thing got turned into saltiness about that trade

people get hung up on some stupid stuff sometimes.

Do you have to go ruin it? We haven't had a playoff run in 10 years, and truth be told, our odds of getting in this year aren't particularly great either, and even if we do we'll get destroyed by Tampa in the first round.

Let us have something for crying out loud

Hey shush. At least you guys have a freakin cup.

But it is cool to see the two hottest teams being Carolina and STL. Dougie Hamilton and Ryan O’Reilly will only make their new teams lose, HF said!

 

[NotOpie]

Since Jan 1 they are 14-5-1, St Louis is 14-4-1 over the same period of time.

I put Carolina's record since Jan 1 instead of Dec 31.

Since Dec 31 Carolina is 15-5-1

One of those teams has a payroll of $78.7 million....the other has a bottom 6 earning a shade over $5 million. I'm not recommending this path, nor even saying it is a good thing....what it is is just crazy!

 

[KnockHobbler]

What an odd way to try and take the wind out of somebody's sails. Wonder how many goals Kurri would've scored without Gretzky. Who cares? Goals are goals

I wonder how many goals Ovechkin wouldve scored without nets? Checkmate, atheists.

Any time you have wallmark/martinook/McKegg as your 2/3/4 centers, you’re going to win a lot of hockey games.

One of the better comments I’ve read here in a long time

 

[nbwingsfan]

I think I’m starting to become a Canes fan?

Won't be long until Carolina bumps Montreal out of a playoffs spot. They will likely be 1 point behind after tonight's games. Their next 5 games all are very winnable.

Habs also have only 10 of the remaining 25 games on home ice. The rest of the season should be tough, especially since some of the top contributors of the team are not as productive when playing away from the Bell Center. I really am not sure if the Habs can hold on to their wild card spot. I tend to believe they will be out of a playoffs spot before long to the profit of the Carolina Hurricanes.

 

[CupsOverCash]

But have they won the cup?!?

 

[Ahoy there]

I was just regarding Nino for Rask trade.

Answer: 11 more than Rask would playing with Aho over the same stretch. Trust me...

idk, it feels a lot more likely to see CBJ falter down the stretch, especially with the internal pressure of Tort plus Pan & Bob rumors

 

[koyvoo]

Victor Rask look a bit more promising in his first couple of seasons than what he eventually developed into.

 

[Anisimovs AK]

What's frustrating is they've earned 31 points out of a possible 40 in this stretch, and they're still a point back of Columbus and Pittsburgh in the 7th and 8th spots. Meanwhile, in the West, they'd be 5th.

Dont worry. The Jackets seem poised to mediocre their way out of the playoffs

True, did not think about them tbh. In any case, Pittsburgh probably makes it anyway, so one of MTL, CAR and CBJ should be out. For CBJ, depends if they do move the 2 of them and what they get in return. If they stay put, they probably make it.

It's gonna be a dog fight for these last two Playoffs spots in the East. Even Philadelphia can dream about getting a place in the Playoffs.

How about now?

I think Flyers lost their chance in that Pens game.

Canes can nab 8th with a win tonight.

Rod the Bod is flexing his coaching muscles.

Apparently he's the faster coach in franchise history to 30 wins....

[Bertuzzzi44]

Niederreiter is an excellent player, solid trade for the Canes.

 

[My Special Purpose]

The Canes were 14-15-5 on Dec. 22 after getting shut out by Pittsburgh, 3-0.

The next day was Whalers Day.

They are now 30-22-6.

 

[MAHJ71]

Honestly hope they make it just to hear the cries about their post-game cellys in the playoffs

Seriously though, how can you not root for them if they do make it?

 

[GlitchMarner]

The Canes are in a playoff spot now, although PIT has a game in hand against the Rangers on Sunday.
