another last minute goal. 5-4 Yotes after 2.
2 goals from Zykov tonight -- who called him up? We don't need any of that here!
Zykov scores again.
We also don't need anyone that parks in front of the net. That's just not the way we play hockey here in NC.
He’s still one short of the required hat trick.
Would pretty much sum up the quality decision making this year if Zykov bags a Hattie
Slavin and skinner combine for the tie breaking goal 6-5 canes.
Bill peters makes sure no Hatty for Zykov in the last 2.
Nope he gets in front of the net and makes it HARD on goalies. we can't have none of that #$@% We're the canes! we don't do that.
Get his butt out of here. He made games first star, but doubtful he’ll make Day or week first star. He belongs in Charlotte.
3 goals in 4 NHL games for Zykov now. I'm not even excited that Zykov scored 2 tonight, I'm more stewing over the fact that the idiots who run this team left him in Charlotte until we were out of the playoff picture when this team begged for goals all season. And then I read about the Waddell conversation in the other thread and suddenly felt sick to my stomach about how even more screwed up this team might still be even with a new GM in place. Hopefully Waddell is completely uninformed.
Congrats Zykov, please don't bolt for the KHL comrade!
I thought our play was pretty crappy for much of this game tonight, but it's nice to walk out of the PNC with a win (I think we've dropped the last 7 out of 8 there). I don't know why the refs didn't stop play when they couldn't see the puck and Cam backed into the net. No one else could see it either for a few critical seconds. Weird.
Ya, why was that not a held puck whistle? Let's say it's not, and let's say Cam doesn't back up into the net. What's the next move? The Coyotes are allowed to hack at Cam's skate to knock the puck out of them? Or he has to realize it's in there and say Hey Mr. Ref, please blow the whistle! How is the play supposed to stop if Cam doesn't back up into the goal?
It's not often Cam or Scott give up 5 and the Canes win.
Zykov proves the staff wrong.
Zykov somehow forgot we're tanking. Must have gotten lost in translation. Friggin' Canes.
Shape Up or Ship Out
Look. This stuff is not brain surgery. Putting a purely offensive player like Zykov on the line with your two most productive offensive forwards not only freed that line up to attack, it freed up your best defensive center (Staal) to play a more natural role with two more grinding forwards on his line. The other two lines were still sort of a patchwork quilt, but hey ... this roster ain't perfect. Either way ... when you let players slot into roles they're comfortable with, it's funny how every just settles in and does their job.
The fact that Peters waits until the season is over to even experiment with Aho centering a purely offensive first line ... I'm not even going to get started. Peters is an bull headed idiot. He's proven that a million times over.
