I’m not gonna lie. That picture of the ice is pretty scary.

Seriously

the ice at the outdoor rink in Monterey that I went to last winter was better. I feel sorry for the Canes who have to play 41 on that crap.

I told you

That surface was the WORST I have ever seen! And that was AFTER the non Zamboni was through.

wonder what the Hurricanes' playoff history at home is

Hardly considered an “advantage,” but if opposing teams always had to play on that surface, at least Carolina’s familiarity with bad ice conditions might provide a leg up over a 7-game series.

That being said, that ice is horrendous

The Sharks goaltending depth shines again. Clearly, the Sharks are so good at developing goalies, that we can make our skaters into them at a drop of a hat too. :)

Its awesome that she is cool with it.

Myself, if a shark took off my arm then I would replace it with a harpoon gun/arm, then go hunt that shark down. Someone could write a book about how an animal of the sea took my appendage and how I devoted the rest of my life to seeking revenge which I know is fated to be doomed.

Wow, that ice seriously reminds me of the Downtown Ice that’s set up near Christmas in the Park. And that’s really, really not a good thing.

One of my friends’ dad was skating there, caught an edge (he was a college hockey player, too), and fell. He then got skated over and was cut up bad.

I will never skate at that makeshift rink. So bad.

Yeah, my friend who hadn’t fallen down in 8 years fell at that rink. And then I, the person who has ice skated maybe twice in her lifetime, kept falling down while skating along the wall and holding onto it. I know I’m bad, but not that bad.

Just horrible ice. I don’t think they resurface it the entire time it’s there.

that ice looks more suitable for making Slurpees than a skating surface. all these horror stories make me glad I’ve never set foot on it.

I was talking to Plank about this last night

And Dave and I noticed that the players were doing more saucer passes, just so the puck wouldn’t hit one of the gnarly crevasses you see in the photo.

I'm still at a loss

as to why not more is said about this. I guess the fan base there are just used to it, or maybe don’t know any better (we know of one guy for sure). But, but, but….how can that happen game after game and no one says a thing?

Greiss

I was listening to the post game quotes from the Penguins game and McLellan was talking about Nabby and Greiss.

He said right now Nabby is playing surprisingly well, and while he continues to do so he’s going to get starts. If he hits a bump in the road then Thomas will get a chance.

It’s hard to disagree with the logic in the sense that Nabby gives us a chance to win every night no matter who’s injured, then again, it’s easy to disagree with the logic with this compressed schedule and Nabby probably going to be starting for the Russians in the Olympics. Basically he’ll be Kipper in the playoffs, completely spent after the long season.

McLellan is hardly the only coach riding a stand out goalie right now. Pretty much every coach that has one is riding him like their jobs are on the line. Anderson, Bryzgolov, Miller, Broduer, Quick… All getting nearly every start these days.

Wow that Ice is bad

Not only is it all messed up, but it’s the wrong color too!

Dear Caineiacs,

Ice is white.

Also...

He’s tied for first in wins
He’s 5th for GAA
He’s tied for 6th in sv%

It’s almost like he’s having a contract year. :)
