^^ It's mind-boggling, but that's Jim Rutherford for ya. He'll make good moves, like trading jesse Boulerice for Doug Weight and odd moves such as this one. I've heard though from other sources that this is not permanent and Ron Francis will likely take over coaching duties next season.

I live in Charlotte and am on a bit of a tight budget so I don't get to attend many games. It'll likely be on TV though

I'm watching the Caps-Leafs game, the guys doing "The Hotstove" were thinking that Maurice will be bumped upstairs next year and Ron Francis will take over as head coach.

^^ Jim Rutherford for some reason loves Maurice. Don't know why

We played Philadelphia tonight, we lost but at least in our case, we got a point out of it.
And dang it, I am sick and tired of us always giving up the first goal, with Lavi now gone, we may not be able to play the catch-up game anymore.

Thumbs up awesome!!

YES!!!! 3-1 win against Washington. Big win for us on a couple of levels. First off it should regain our confidence, second the Captials are going to be our toughest in-division opponet and we could use every win against them. Third, our back-up goalie showed he could still be strong despite us giving up close to 40 shots. Fourth, we killed of 5 of 6 penalties. And, Paul Maurice's first win as a Canes coach since 2003.

Oh, and we finally scored the first goal of the game in quite some time.


too bad this one was not on tv, but at least nhl.com was there to update me

one more thing, I hope this win will be a big momentum and confidence booster for us. We have a rather difficult schedule ahead of us so I hope this will get us going in the right direction

ridiculous, we had a 5-1 lead at the start of the 3rd period, and we let Philadelphia tie us.

good lord. how in the hell do you blow a 4 goal lead? at least we got a point out of it, but it should have been 2 easily. We had in this game in our grasp and we let it slip. This Hurricanes team is so frustrating to watch it almost makes me wonder how in the hell we won a Championship 3 years ago sometimes. ahhhhhhh @%#$%%&#$^$%^%*$%^$^*$*&^*%&%^*&%#$%!#^$^(^&%*^$&# ^$^*^&^&(&*%&^$%*&^%$(^&%^**)^&(*($%#$%#%#$^@$%@#! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, watching the Blues last night against the hated Sharks, I was amazed at how hard, how much energy, passion, and desire they had in most of the last half of the game, but yet still didn't get a point at all - thanks to IMHO Keith K. not being able to control the puck, get it out of the zone,,, leading to the Sharks' 3rd goal, the game winner via that turnover .

Hang in there...
