The Streak is dead. Maybe start a winning streak?

The Canes hit the ice at 10:30. We’ll see if either Chatty or Walker participate. If they don’t, it’s a pretty safe bet that they’re not playing tonight. Nikishin played nearly 19 minutes on Monday. Morrow only played 8:33 and his only 2 shifts after the halfway point of the 2nd period were the PP early in the 3rd and he closed the game out for the last 1:45.

The Panthers missed Reinhart, Greer and Mikkola on Monday but all 3 skated before they flew to Raleigh yesterday. They’re skating today, so we’ll see.

TNT for TV.
 
I flew up to New York on business this morning.

The bad news is that the White Sox-Mets game I was supposed to go to tonight with a client has been moved up to a 1:10 start due to impending rain, so I won't get to go.

The good news is that I found out about the schedule change before I left and instead of packing my Mets jersey, I packed my Canes jersey, which I will wear while cheering on our boys at a Canadian sports bar opened by a few Cornell alum that I haven't had an opportunity to visit yet.

A Canadian sports bar in NYC run by Cornell grads? Are they Canadian? What do they show in the summer, Blue Jays games?

But Poutine. 🤤
 
Yeah, no idea what was ever specifically wrong with Mikkola and Greer so I guess that sounds plausible. I'm less convinced Reinhart will be a possibility but we'll see. They could all be in the same boat as Chatfield. And by boat, I mean bait bucket.

Either way, Florida is going to dial up a different scheme on the forecheck/trap now that Carolina finally remembered how to break the old one. So, Brindy's going to have to adjust on the fly. Last time a team figured out Mo's pressure scheme, the Leafs got beat like a baby seal in the next game, so pardon me for not being terribly optimistic. You know what could even the odds? Getting a freaking call and a power play goal early. Yeah, like that's gonna happen. I hope Freddie put Geritol on his muesli this morning. I think he'll need the iron.
 
No changes at the morning skate, both Chatty and Walker are missing.

Mo said all his injured players are in tonight.
Doesn’t seem like he should be playing injured players…😁 seems like injured players would be easier for us to beat. He knows he’s gonna lose and setting up an excuse - “we were playing injured players”
