Canes

[SpencerHaskell]

Actually the announcers are pretty good at Splaining who is playing well

I think TNT has blown ESPN out of the water in terms of their hockey coverage this playoff. Their product is much more fun to watch, and I think their crew/analysts are much better as well.

Depends on what you're watching for. Solid defensemen aren't necessarily scoring highlight reel goals like Gretzky or McDavid, but they block shots, and make good passes out of the defensive zone to lead to offensive rushes. Jaccob Slavin on the Hurricanes (74), is one of the strongest and most underrated D-men in the league.

Good forwards will generate scoring chances, even if they're not flashy, and get the puck deep and establish physicality on the forecheck.

Thanks

Come on! 5 on 3, what the hell are you thinking? Shoot the fricking puck!

 

[SpencerHaskell]

Almost two minutes of a 5 on 3... Canadiens trying to give the game away on a platter and the Canes don't even get a shot on net.

That’s one of the most pathetic 5 on 3 power plays that you will ever see. Instead of going for the kill shot, the Canes chose to just milk clock.

I can’t believe the first wasn’t a 5 minute major.

 

[RogerThatHeel]

Hope that pathetic pp doesn’t come back to bite them.

Get out of this period with the three goal lead.

Yeah but no excuse in not getting another goal with these power plays.

 

[KenansDad]

Not even trying to score on the power plays

Hurricanes powerplay going non-existent in the playoffs is as likely as the sun rising tomorrow.

Actually better 5 on 5
weird

 

[RogerThatHeel]

You just can’t make up how bad the Carolina power play is. lol

 

[RogerThatHeel]

That will do it

 

[unctarheel1984]

Looking like Carolina is on the way the Stanley Cup. The Habs don't belong on the ice with them. What an awesome performance,

FIFY

Go Canes!

Good dominating win last night. Powerplay looks like the Canes used for a breather. Very odd that they seem to slow down and get stagnant with a man or two advantage. Love a shutout and Montreal's fans turned on them last night.

 

[KenansDad]

The Canadiens definitely struggled last night, partly because the Canes were really good and partly because they just looked tired, and wonder if the passing of Quebec native Claude Lemieux today will give them a little extra motivation moving forward. Crazy that he was the torch-bearer on Monday night and passed 3 days later.
