If the Bullets had to change their name the Hurricanes should too

 

[Holtbyisms]

Your playoff goaltending pair together again. Very excited to see Shumakov play. Hopefully he impresses!

 

[Corby78]

Another opportunity for Dowd, was not impressed last time.

Another opportunity for Dowd, was not impressed last time.

He's playing on the Hershey line, while Boyd gets partners with a more reasonable chance at the NHL. Probably not worth reading too much into that, though.

The Hurricanes chose the name because they come here with some regularity. Its part of life here. I wouldn't have changed the name of the Bullets but its not the same scenario. No one here is upset with the team name

In other news, the conversation on Dowd...wouldn't be shocked to see him win the job despite not looking great. They want a right handed centerman who can win vital faceoffs when needed. The one thing he's done really well this pre-season has been faceoffs.

The Carolina Pig-**** Lagoons?

 

[shtorm2005]

Early goal in our net again

 

[Corby78]

Well I guess this is our strategy for the preseason

 

[Hivemind]

Nearly 5 minutes without a shot.

 

[peterthegreat12]

Pre-season but it would be nice to see some level of chemistry.

 

[Corby78]

I love how they talk about we have young guys we want to see and vets trying to shake the rust off. What are the other NHL teams doing? Amazing how they get shots on goal, don't give up rush after rush.

I mean seriously.

Avalanche, those are not fun.
Predators, really?!!?
Lightning, I don't want any of that action.

 

[Corby78]

these guys look drunk

 

[Cush]

nice hook on Dowd

 

[peterthegreat12]

Not a single shot for the good guys with 9:42 left in the period.

 

[shtorm2005]

Two russians with one point. The other day you will think Caps is leading...

 

[shtorm2005]

0:2

 

[Hivemind]

As someone who owns both Staal and Zykov in my dynasty league, can this game be moved to the regular season?

 

[shtorm2005]

1:2 Beautiful goal by Backstrom

 

[shtorm2005]

1:3 Shorthanded

 

[Corby78]

Ness 9th D? Man I hope somebody beats him out.

I used to own Martinook as well.

 

[Corby78]

Man these are the vets looking stupid. Reirden has work to do because right now they are in "don't give a shit" mode.
