Carolina Hurricanes Hockey News

Staal and Ward did some traveling around.

Eric Staal and Cam Ward

Another item to celebrate the man that should have won Coach of the Year will be here for a long time.   Rutherford continues to impress by making smart moves.
Nice Work JR.  Lets see how everthing shakes out with the players now.

I am optimistic.

An article: 

**Newer Posts Below this one I wanted to make sure everyone saw this one**

Apparently some local writer in Charlotte wrote an article trashing the Stanley Cup the Playoffs, the NHL, the Hurricanes etc… I would have probably ignored it but a couple of days later he wrote an article about how alive and well the world cup is …. you know I don t like soccer much but pretty much any sport that people love is cool with me, but trash hockey and applaud the world cup in the same month? This guy shouldn’t be allowed to write a sports column, at least not in the US. Any person of intelligence that is a fan of sports cannot have anything but a tremendous amount of respect for hockey players and the Stanley Cup Playoffs.. it is simply THE toughest professional Sports Championship to obtain.
Top Reasons why you think Tom Sorenson, Charlotte Columnist, Wrote an article Trashing the NHL, Stanley Cup and Carolina Hurricanes

1. He is Jealous of attention going to another city other than Charlotte
2. He wants to generate negative buzz and attention for himself
3. He is a Moron
4. He is big pansy and sports like hockey make him wet his pants
5. He is distraught over the fact that no one cares about the crappy basketball team they have in his City
6. SEND IN YOUR SUGGESTIONS…..

Stay Tuned there a few scenarios that might make this possible.  …… 2 Staals In Carolina-That would be a nice way to help finish off this championship year.

You know I admit I was one of the people yelling profanity at Rutherford’s Box sometimes during the Hurricanes in the past years….when we had to suffer through some bad seasons, bad coaching and some overpriced players that really were a waste of money. I am happy to be proven wrong about JM. He is topping off a fantastic year by signing Rod Brind’Amour to a 5 year deal… Great news for us since he is in such good shape he will probably play til he’s 60. Nice Work J. R.

Next Laviolette, and the restricted Free Agents… I would hate to see Cullen Who I think is Unrestricted go anywhere else.

More to come.

Excellent Profile on Cam Ward

Rod Brind’Amour Wins Frank J. Selke Trophy for best Defensive Forward 2006.

“Brind’Amour outdistanced the field by receiving 80 first-place votes and was named on 108 of 129 ballots for 954 points. Three-time Selke winner Jere Lehtinen of the Dallas Stars was second with 567 points.”

Congrats To Brindy.

What can you say about him? I know Cam Ward is MVP of Playoffs but without a Doubt Captain Carolina took this team on his shoulders many times and carried Congrats on a much deserved award. Everytime I think that we got Brindy for Keith Primeau it makes me laugh.
