Tues., 20 Feb 2007 vs. ATL

[300section]

Start time for a VERY BIG GAME tonight here in Raleighwood is set for 7 PM. No John & Tripp on FSN, but I was told that if you get Direct TV it SHOULD be on #631 (that's what it said on the Thrashers site anyways). Lots of points to be won & lost on this one. I just hope we're on the winning end of it.

I'll be at this game and, yet again, I'm begging to see a win live please! I haven't seen them win in the arena since 1/26!!

This is a HUGE game that we need to win and it's also on CI for those of you that have it being, as 300 said, FSN isn't carrying it.

Thank God for Center Ice...... .. although I'm almost scared to watch.... I'm going to do every mojo routine possible before this one...... up to and includeding wearing every Canes shirt and jersey I have at the same time for that "layered look".... it can't hurt.... Oh.. and I shall also hang out my new Carolina Hurricanes Stanley Cup Champions flag and put out my new matching front door mat!!!!!

Got the game set to tape on Center Ice since I'm going to our game here tonight. Will be checking game updates on my phone since the forum sucks now on updating current scores.
Also getting my drink tonight, hope it brings good luck.

If you have a DVR: search by time, pull up the game time, and it appears to show 2 feeds. YOU WANT THE ONE IN THE 700s, the NHL CENTER ICE feed.

Because otherwise they screw you over and you come back to a black screen. =P

Thats the one I got set to tape. Funny thing is I sometimes get those other channels, sometimes I don't. Guess they get blacked out. When Carolina is on FSN, I get the pre game, post game stuff but the actual game gets blacked out. However when they reshow it later, I can get it.

[wardo30]

UGH!!!!

that is all.

[golden grahames cracker]

And my DVR decided not to tape the game either.
Hate when that happens.

[wardo30]

I'll summarize for you.....we played a great defensive game, we had the game within our grasp and we just could not capitalize on the scoring chances we had. A weird goal snuck in on Cam, Brindy gave the puck away and Kovalchuk ripped one top shelf and the momentum went away and with 2 minutes left......we lost all that we had worked for the other 58 minutes.

My mom watched the game and said the Canes were playing good then all of a sudden at the end, it just kinda happened.
I really thought they were gonna win.

[wardo30]

Yup that's exactly right what your mom said. I thought they were too and I think they did too.

[Melindaaaaaa [26]]

That was just... sad. The first weird goal by Ilya screwed with everyone's heads and lost the game for us.

[Ells]

Other than that, you can see Williams isn't 100% anymore than Brind'Amour is, because there were several shots that JWill would have had, and Brindy wasn't as agressive as usual.

[wardo30]

I agree Ellie, you can definitely tell that a lot of them are hurting and just can't give all of themselves the way they normally do because they don't have it.

[mscaniac]

I think there is more going on with Brindy than his foot.... I was amazed at how much he turned over the puck last night.... not at all "Brindy" like....
