The Canes wearing red doesn't feel right 😂

But it is the right decision

Isnt it ironic Bobrosky has been on 2 teams that have gone up against a team who won 60+ games

CBJ 2018-2019 vs. TBL
FLA 2022-2023 vs. BOS


So what you're saying is there's a chance

Raanta being in net over Freddie or the rookie for the Canes is a surprise to me

Even if the canes do get past the isles I see them getting killed in the 2nd round. The forwards are too mediocre

I mean can’t blame them when you’ve won more cups in the last 20 years then their opponents have won playoff series in that same time span

Marc Staal takes out Lyon on the first goal. As Steve Dangle would say, "That is a dang it." I honestly think Lyon coulda made that save

Good decision by PM to go with the hot hand in Alex Lyon. He came to play tonight. But oh yeah worst case you go to your 10m backup 2 time Vezina winner Sergei Bobrovsky

It's not particularly surprising to followers of the team. Kochetkov has been in the AHL for the last little while, and his mercurial nature can be a detriment
Raanta was the better goaltender by a considerable margin down the stretch, so I'm glad to see him get the Game 1 start

Not necessarily. Carolina may or may not score on power plays (granted they're 2/4 right now)
