[Blueline Bomber]

Who got net-clearing duty now that Skinner is gone?

We really can’t replace that level of commitment. Maybe someone will step up in the system, but it could be years.

 

[Novacane]

That’s a pretty good crowd

 

[The Faulker 27]

Putting down hardwood flooring in the master bedroom today because my wife really wanted hardwood in the bedroom.

Lunch break right now, and will need another break or two when the Canes are on.



Don't let me down on this one Rod, come up with something good.

My wife wanted Hardwood in the bedroom last night, but I was too tired.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Classy moment — the Canes run a video of Peter Laviolette presenting a $10K+ check to the Canes foundation to go toward Florence relief, and add a thank-you to the Preds organization and fans.

That’s a pretty good crowd

20 minutes till game time too. They’re calling it a sellout.

 

[geehaad]

Walked in just after 1:00 like a cool breeze. No worries.

Thanks to Sheriff Bart, zoodani, and Hank for my ticket. (It was a combined effort)

 

[FreshSeabass]

Can you imagine the vultures if we didn't sellout a free home game.

Video just said 20k tickets were "sold'

Incoming: pictures of empty seats from STH who didn’t show up

It was LaRose before Skinner, so maybe it's whoever's got the nicest smile on the team

I’m sure you’re seeing what I’m seeing: the entire upper deck is empty...not sure how they “over sold”.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

The show looks nice.

 

[Novacane]

It looks like the stream isn’t region locked, and Forslund is commentating. NOICE

 

[DaveG]

Jesus, when's the last time we've had someone that lays hits like THAT on the forecheck? The 3 year prime we had of Ruutu?

 

[Wolfpuck]

Great turnover Faulk

1-0 Preds

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Faulk in midseason form

 

[MinJaBen]

A nice Faulk and Williams screw up special.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Not loving the defensive coverage by our wingers so far. This game is a track meet already and our wingers are giving them way too much time and space to make plays at the point.

Faulk made two horrendous plays on that goal against, and that follows on several others including two bad ones by TT on the same shift.

Overall they’re just way too scrambly and look like the Muller-era canes trying to pass out of the zone.

 

[Unsustainable]

Bad turnover.

Ferland with a huge hit earlier

 

[bobc222]

Young guns were more fun to watch, team looks slower

 

[Wolfpuck]

Willy!

 

[Novacane]

Rinaldo and Andrei is not a combo of players I want to see on the ice together

 

[Unsustainable]

Williams!

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Didn't get shutout. Successful game
