 TONIGHT'S TENDERS

GPMINWLEGAGAGAASASVSV%SO
2009 - Cam Ward 18 1009 3 10 51 3.03 503 452 .899 0

GPMINWLEGAGAGAASASVSV%SO
2009 - Tomas Vokoun 27 1583 9 10 69 2.62 895 826 .923 3

 

Tough keeping score these days with all the freak injuries and their associated callups from Rochester, but we'll try to clear it up: Dmitry Kulikov (neck), Gregory Campbell (upper body) appear to be a go. Bryan Allen (precautionary; will sit tonight) is covered by Jason Garrison. Kamil Kreps is out after involuntarily melding with the bench door on Wednesday.

Carolina's not in much better shape: reportedly they are still without Tim Gleason, Chad LaRose, Niclas Wallin, Erik Cole, Mike Ryan, and Joe Corvo.

But that Staal kid is in. Always welcome news in these here parts.

The clubs each have a home victory after completing the first two games of the season series, with the Cats winning 3-0 on November 4th.

All the usual excellence on everything Carolina is up at Canes Country, and I do recommend a visit. Thanks for coming out. Go Cats.

Oh, and talk about mixed emotions:

by pantherdazz on Dec 18, 2009 8:01 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I’m thinking the Canes are terribly regretful about not re-signing Seidenberg. Wanted to go on the cheap, you get the cheap.

by Donny Rivette on Dec 18, 2009 8:04 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

That looked a lot worse than it turned out; Cats are on it

by Donny Rivette on Dec 18, 2009 8:07 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Yeah I thought we scored

pretty even period

Have to wonder: was Sean Burke the equal of Cam Ward, minus a decent team in front of him?

by Donny Rivette on Dec 18, 2009 8:44 PM EST reply actions   0 recs



HAD TO LOG ON TO ADD THIS LOL

by SNOOP97DAWG on Dec 18, 2009 8:52 PM EST via mobile reply actions   0 recs

And it's 3-1

… In a good way.

by OldDave on Dec 18, 2009 8:56 PM EST via mobile reply actions   0 recs

No it not good unless they are up 4 or 5-1 we all know what happens with this team and 2 goal leads

PP’s have been better of late, but they haven’t plugged the leak yet by any stretch

Crowd here is not bad better than the trash game

 safe to assume Booth will NOT be on the first line when he returns in 2013?

Whole thing still sucks. Wanted so badly for him to make the US Olympic team.

by Donny Rivette on Dec 18, 2009 9:11 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

OK- so my theory about me shopping

on game nights seems to be working out…I just can’t afford to keep this up all season.

by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 18, 2009 9:19 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Maybe its the thats how i roll after they started to play it they have been playing well

How many dives for the canes tonight?

by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 18, 2009 9:38 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

That all went away when Laviolette was shown the door. Maurice doesn’t play that.

by Donny Rivette on Dec 18, 2009 9:39 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Prediction -

6-4 Cats in regulation.

by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 18, 2009 9:42 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Cats defense is out of gas…

by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 18, 2009 9:45 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Look at how ridiculously nervous we are…10 minutes and a four goal lead. Who can blame us?

by Donny Rivette on Dec 18, 2009 9:46 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Our nervousness is obviously justified.

by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 18, 2009 9:48 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Here we go….

Pull Vokoun?

No fault of his own, but a shakeup might be in order

by Donny Rivette on Dec 18, 2009 9:48 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

A good old fashioned ass-chewing py PDB might accomplish the same task.

H. Pony.

My night is complete.

It’s nice all those folks have cash burning holes in their pockets and bank accounts that they can show up at a Toyota dealer, dive into a Camry, and call it a day.

Not quite there, myself.

by Donny Rivette on Dec 18, 2009 9:51 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

I’d be happy if I could afford a used Camry…

by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 18, 2009 9:52 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I haven’t seen Happy Pony yet this evening – its disappointing.

by coasterg on Dec 18, 2009 9:53 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

ITS ALL GOOD PEOPLE IM NOT SCARED WE GO THIS

by SNOOP97DAWG on Dec 18, 2009 9:55 PM EST via mobile reply actions   0 recs

Still 5 mins to lose it…

402 HP Nutcracker sounds like its from Home Improvement.

by coasterg on Dec 18, 2009 9:57 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Fingernails gone….

by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 18, 2009 10:02 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

If you think about it 6-3 is the same as 4-1, 4-1 just sounds much more impressive.

by coasterg on Dec 18, 2009 10:02 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Finally -

A late game penalty NOT on us…

by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 18, 2009 10:03 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

WOOHOO!!!

I was close with my prediction…

by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 18, 2009 10:05 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Over .500! Just keep it rolling on the road.

by coasterg on Dec 18, 2009 10:05 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

I have never been so nervous with 6 in the net

by pantherdazz on Dec 18, 2009 10:07 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

I think they need to call up McIntyre for Philly on Monday. Dispense some real justice to the Flyers – its the Law of the West.
