Stats after two. Backlund struggling a little in the dot. Ferland has been everywhere but surprisingly hasn't been as physical, though I suppose when you control the puck and the play, there isn't a need to hit anybody.

I didn't realize they were 11 points back. He's right, that's too much ground to make up

The thing with games in hand is that a team has to earn the points before they are awarded.

Fair enough. I just so happen to be a huge fan of the DangerNoodle.

Has anyone been watching the Canes broadcast? They're actually quite good, very unbiased and knowledgeable about both teams.

Can everyone switch to "games in hand"? I'm not sure why "games at hand" is a thing on CP.

Sure you can. That is 11 points and seven teams. I grant you that they are not mathematically eliminated yet, but then again I don't think anyone is. For all practical purposes it is simply too much ground to make up—even winning all their games IN hand will leave the Hurricanes at least three points out.

We have been excellent since the pushback on the first goal. Surprised by the shot count.

Hope not. That would be a massive negative for this team if he's not able to play for any amount of time.
