Canes won 5-3 over division rival Atlanta last night.
Canes played really well. They managed to have another shot-tactular night, shooting 21 shots on goal in the first period, and having 46 on the night.
The amazing part about that is that the Canes actually didn't score on any of those 21 shots.
Great game for Bayda and Aucoin, both of them notching a goal. Absolutely good news that with all the injuries, the guys from Albany have stepped it up as well.
Although all he has is an assist to show for it, I thought Glen Wesley played really well last night as well.
And congrats to Erik Cole for playing in his 400th NHL (and Cane) game!
Next game is tomorrow against the C[r]apitals.

Hey, how bout some defense?
Wow. That was lame.
Canes lost 6-1 to the Devils last night.
The lone goal for the Canes was scored by Keith Aucoin, who I think can be called the Brodeur-Sniper (or some other creative name) because he has scored both his first and second career goals on the guy. Which is pretty amazing, cause Brodeur's one of the best ever...
That's pretty much the highlight of the night. Defensive lapses abound.
I did notice that the Canes did not come out with as near as much of a physical presence as they did in the Washington game. I think that cost them a lot - allowing the Devils to set the tone.
Next game is against the Bruins. Hopefully the Canes'll remember to play defense.

Canes lose; Staal's an All-Star
Canes lost 4-1 to the Devils last night.
Missing in the lineup was essentially half the team - those who were not injured were struck with a nasty flu bug going around the team.
Canes didn't look that bad until the third period, where they just lost control - allowing two goals and putting little to none offensive pressure on the Devils.
The good news was that Keith Aucoin got his first NHL goal!
Next game is tomorrow against the Avalanche. I will probably not be watching all of it because of a little thing called NFL PLAYOFFS! Go Pack Go!
In other news, Eric Staal is going to his second consecutive All-Star game.
And, for the second consecutive year, the best power forward evah! was not selected to go... It's a travesty.

Canes hand Tampa first road win
Well, Tampa Bay had lost all of their past 7 road games going into last night's game. Let's just say the Canes helped them to break the streak...
Yep. A 5-1 loss to the Lightning last night.
Canes looked sluggish in the first two periods of the game. Actually, the third wasn't much better, but at least Ray Whitney notched a goal.
An interesting occurence was that there were absolutely no penalties in the first 32 minutes of the game! And, of course, the penalties that they do call are complete crap (read: Vincent Lecavalier penalty shot).
Anyways... Canes played like crap. Not really much else to say other than that...
What's really odd is that Keith Aucoin was sent down to Albany today and Ryan Bayda was called up. I didn't think Aucoin was playing too bad - I wonder why he was sent down? Is there some kind of cap/contract issue I'm not aware of?
Next game is Saturday against the Thrashers.
