Carolina Hurricanes Hockey News

Oil and water doesnt mix and the oil didnt do to well tonight. Carolina Scores 4 Goals in the 3rd Period to Take 1-0 lead in Stanley Cup Finals.
Brindy Scores with 30 seconds left to give the Hurricanes the win in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals. If you you were watching this game you saw an amazing display of goaltending, Ward was a true octopus tonight pulling pucks headed for certain netedness out of the air… and playing so well you forget he is just 22 years old and still a rookie. I loved seeing Williams get that Shorthanded goal.

Well Edmonton had not played the Hurricanes and I’m sure they were pretty cocky after playing as well as they have in the playoffs. Now they know that are up against a team that does not every quit, plays to the last second of a game, and will solve any goalie put in front of them.

The victory is no surprise to me. I fully expect the Hurricanes to win the Stanley Cup, as I have been saying since October.

I should be getting a hilight video up soon.

Brindy is THE Captain.. Can you believe Phily traded him for Keith Primeau… LOL

This team expects to win the Cup this year, and they will.

Sorry Canada.

GO Canes

2 to 1 victory for the Canes, Cam ward: Amazing. Great early Goal by Staal to start it up in the first and Cullen had almost the exact goal from almost the same spot to make 2… The Hurricanes were playing like the team that won 9 in a row earlier in the season.. Playing like a Team that Knows it is destined to win the Stanley Cup This year.

I love the Coach.

“Obviously, the goal is to win the Stanley Cup,” coach Peter Laviolette said. “But there’s a road that you have to go down to get there, and there’s 82 games on it. You have to play all of them, and if you have to play them, you might as well win them.” Nuff said.

I also loved when Brindy Shoved Sarich in the face for shooting on Gerber after the whistle. Even if the ref called a penalty that led a 5 on 3. You gotta protect the goalie.
“Center Doug Weight and defensemen Bret Hedican and Niclas Wallin sat out for the third straight game with lower-body injuries, leaving the Hurricanes with 226 games lost to injuries. But with Recchi finally tallying a point, they had enough to improve to 3-3 against Tampa Bay this season. ”

This is the year there is not a team out there as good as the Carolina Hurricanes even with the injuries including the cheap shot on Cole, the Hurricanes have remained one of the TOP teams in the eastern Conference.
Last night RECCHI scored what I hope is the first of many in this year. Nothing bad will come of him starting to feel comfortable in North Carolina.

Of note Stillman now has 499 Career Points.

It wasn’t the best game i’ve seen and really I would say the Canes beat the Bruins and they really played not so good… looked a little sluggish in the beggining and at one point in the 2nd period where Boston Scored 2 quick goals in succession the Bruins fans sitting around me were pretty damn happy, looking at me in my Hurricanes gear and kind of snickering.. So i happily said hey its just Boston we are playing..its not like the Canes will lose the game. Being cool people they laughed and thought I was joking.

I wasnt and I was right. The Hurricanes Stepped it up in the 3rd and of course they won. Do all boston fans talk like that with that horrible accent? IF you meet someone from Boston just mention Boston and they start talking all strange.

Anyway The Hurricanes played like the pre olympic break in the 3rd and it was excellent.
This game was really an example of how great team can play crappy and beat team that is just not very good this year.

Go Canes.
