Started with two home loses and had to win in OT in game 6 on the road. But I agree with getting on the board early and often in this next game. I think the Preds have scored first in 4 of the 5 games so far. Canes have had some success in chasing games and it’s a good skill to have, but that luck runs out eventually. And it’s ugly to watch. I optimistically ordered my seats for round 2. Me as well. This series has been frustrating but the Bolts will be brutal. Apparently Kucherov (nice "use" of the cap rules) is just fine in spite of Duclair's best efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like many teams, the Canes tend to play up (or down) to their level of competition, so with measured expectations, I’d actually enjoy watching a tough series with Tampa (assuming we don’t get taken out to the shed so to speak). The Preds series has been infuriating. I didn’t realize how much I disliked Haula until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree the Bolts will be a much faster easier watch but the physical toll will be the brutal part I fear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely the worst period I’ve seen them play all season. They’re rattled. As someone born and raised in Tennessee, I couldn’t stand anything related to Nashville. That makes this series that much more excruciating to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I’ll tell y’all this much: winning a playoff series in that manner can only be good going forward. Grinding out close games with the pressure firmly on as the high seed and pushing back when the game felt over was amazing. Also- Aho getting going is a good sign 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be great to get Ceddrick back for this but I think we see a better Canes team in the next round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MegaMike Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 So about those armored millipedes/centipedes... Is there a way to get rid of or prevent them from entering my property? I'm finding them everywhere around my apartment. They creep me out. Something keeps eating my plants too . I had to move them inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pardon my uncanny command of the obvious, but the Canes need to win tonight or Saturday to bring the series back home for game 5. I guess I should just be pessimistic in advance so I won’t end up disappointed. They’ve not played badly. Just no puck luck so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sat line back together, Petr in net and 4th line with some speed we shall see... Ned a Caulder finalist is pretty cool for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frazdaddy Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 @magpiemaniac 15 years ago we were down 2 games to 0 to the Habs. ( coincidentally the last time we played hockey in June) On that night another Stahl won the game in OT just like his brother did last night. We all know what happened after that.

Watching the lightning score those 2 quick PP goals was demoralizing but insanely proud of the boys for turning in a great 3rd period and OT when our season depended on it. We earned that game winner. This team is resilient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came back in to correct my post above as it was the Habs and not the Leafs in the game I referenced. I realized I was wrong because the Leafs have never played a single game in June.

magpiemaniac Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 This game is pissing me off. It’s tough playing 9 on 4 for two periods. No reason that we shouldn’t be up 4-2 instead of down 4-5. Combination of soft calls and lack of discipline from the Canes. Vasilevskiy is acting human today and the Canes can’t take advantage of it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpiemaniac Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 I’m trying to move my retired parents from TN to NC and this is the absolutely worst real estate market to try to do it in. Great for sellers, but terrible for buyers. At their advancing age, they’d like to sell their current home and lease here so they don’t have to worry about maintenance, etc. The inventory is slim, the prices are ridiculous, and the few houses that are available are snapped up in what seem to be hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the northwest is a crazy place (talking weather). For places like Portland and Seattle 90% of the summer doesn't require AC; but when you do need it, you really need it.
