Ben Case: The Need for a Complete 60 Minutes
Tonight, the Canes head to The Pond to take on the Anaheim Ducks for the first game in a three-game California road-trip. Rest should not be an issue for the Canes tonight, as they previously played on Sunday in a tight 1-0 OT win over the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Ducks also haven't played since Sunday and previously saw the Calgary Flames in high-scoring affair resulting in an 8-4 loss. |

Well we couldn't hold a lead again. Either more experience is needed for our young team or an upgraded system is needed but something has to be done. We've given up at least 16 points in close games this season. |

Ron Hainsey was a -4 last night.
Our vets continue to let us down. |

The Canes would be a playoff team if the games ended after two periods. They can't play with a lead in the 3rd period. |

Unfortunate yes. But the Canes have made great strides this season, at least in my eyes. Its disappointing losing games but I would be encouraged by their progress. |

Yep. To put up 5 vs the ducks without Jordan Staal or Elias Lindholm in the lineup is a good sign. |

Also, can we take a moment to appreciate how good Sebastian Aho is? |

Was hoping we could have grabbed one of Puljujarvi or Laine to play with him, but nooooo we had to be competitive.... |

Laine = Untouchable, if you have not watched him yet, he is the best young player in the league, not Matthews and not McDavid. Pujarvi is in over his head. Canes are heading in the right direction, and also you don't trade away top young D. This team needs a number 1 center, and that will have to fall in their laps. |

The team needs better skilled depth and a bit more size. |

Nah.
If we're trading Faulk we're gonna need Nuge back or something. And not until we know McKeown/Fleury/Bean are ready to step up. |

You have no idea how aroused this trade proposal makes me. |

Yeah, uh... McDavid might be the best player in the NHL right now. If he's not better than Sid, he's getting really damn close. |

I still think Sid is better, but as you said the time of transition is fast approaching. |
