Anderson is going to start, we won't see Bussi unless we're handling the series or Anderson is struggling
Carolina in 6.
Just to be clear. Carolina Hurricanes lost to the Detroit Red Wings in 01-02 in the Cup final. Still butthurt about that one. Let's Go Canes!!!!!
The Bruins must hold the record for former goalies starting for other teams (Bussi/Vladar/Ullmark)
Sens in 6. GSG
Carolina in 6.
Sens fan here. This is going to be a close one. Canes deff with an edge however slight it may be but man….if Sens play like they have been in the past 20 games or so Canes are in for a war.
Detroit took the wrong Svechnikov. Of course.
Wonder if Tkachuk penalties will cost them.
Shannon Ottawa PK has been great since they changed the PK coach a few months ago
I feel good about canes in 5, probably 6. go canes
I got canes in 6
Canes in 6, let's go Canes!
GO SENS GO!!! Green has the playbook
Canes in 5
I hope Sens in 7 games. That Carolina first round home record since 2019 is quite impressive.. Sens need to steal at least 1 to 2 games in Raleigh to win this series.
Go Hurricanes!!!!!
You left out Ehlers!!!! He will be instrumental if they go far!!
Nevermind you didn't π
I wanna believe as a Sens fan, however i see this as either anothed six or maybe seven game exit most likely. But if its seven, a seven game series is often one moment or one bounce from going the other way so maybe just maybe we get that bounce
canes in 6
My Sens can absolutely win this.
4 and 2 Carolina Wins
I say Canes in 5
Canes fan here. I think Carolina will win the series, but expect it to go seven games. I'm hoping we can show some love for Ullmark and his personal battles. Mental health over hockey games.
Letβs go canes!
Canes are too deep. 7 (almost 8 with Taylor Hall…) 20 goal scorers. Ottawa has some skill and grit but frankly, I don't think they have a chance against this extremely well-coached and incredibly deep Carolina team.
Sens are 9th overall in the league. Its a massive downplay to call em the 8th seed.
GSG
Every Carolina fan knows that Rod is going to start Andersen and he's going to play every game to their detriment. Freddie was in the starters crease today. I know it makes no sense but that's Rod for you. He only trusts veterans. Also martinook plays way too much. Any Carolina fan will tell you that as well
There won't be many whistles in these games. Periods will go by quickly.
Sens in 6
Can't just post the full season PK numbers in Ottawa without the full context. Ottawa spent the first 4 months of the season in the 32 spot putting up garbage numbers. They switched the assistant coaches' jobs around and put Mike Yeo in charge of the PK in late January, and the numbers in the games since have been much much better. Just looking at since the switch happened, Ottawa's PK has been something like 7th or 6th in the league, but the numbers were so abysmal before Yeo took over that season-long they still just look crummy.
Ottawa in 6
8:31 he said the thing
Tough look hockey girl
Some do see the Canes as a paper tiger this season. The Habs have exposed they do have trouble with rushes at times. Also, their defense depth is okay, but likely not as good as previous seasons as Burns and Orlov left.
10/10 analysis by Patton Oswalt
Hits and blocked shots are the playoffs.
'Canes have been consistently good all year, Sens have been playing playoff hockey for weeks now. Carolina in 6, but Ottawa will REALLY make them work for it.
SHANNONβ¦β¦ love the jersey and the hat, but may they not be a sign of jinxing the Canes!!π
May the Storm be with you Canes!! πππβ€οΈπππ
GO SENS GO!
With regards to Carolina's goalie, I have a funny feeling that rod will stick with Andersen even though Bussi is better and the team plays better in front of him. Rod has blind loyalty for "veterans"
I say Ottawa I'm six
Ottawa is a real underdog in this series. Still think they have a chance but it will be based on goaltending. Ullmark has to play to his fullest potential.
Have seen a lot of Carolina pundits writing off the Sens completely and looking at facing Crosby next round.
Sens will crush
