Somebody get @TuckerBlanc some water!

The Bizarro Snub! I’ll take it!

@jhjimtool6 MTL is definitely legit, but there is a massive psychological difference between 0-2 (with those 2 being at home) vs 1-1.

@bivpack 1 big win doesnt change much - this Montreal team is legit! Must play Canes hockey at the Bell Centre to even up

Biggest Canes win since 2006 SCF Game 7. Went from blowing up the roster after another ECF embarrassment to re-establishing yourself as the clearly better team. That’s how thin the playoffs OT margin is. Get a split in Montreal and close this out in 6/7. And get HFA via VGK.

@murphsturph Would have been 0.1% with a loss. Now back to 40-50%. The importance of Ehlers’s goal cannot be understated.

Probably not an overstatement to say Canes' Cup chances depend on scoring the next goal. Going down 0-2 with series moving to Montreal is a big, big ask.

@giglio_OG Biggest win in RBA’s coaching career.

Make that 6 in a row. Ehlers to the rescue! Canes win 3-2

NIKOLAJ EHLERS!

So either the season essentially ends tonight, or someone is going to achieve @Canes immortality. No in between.

2 minute minor? Montreal getting some Cameron Indoor officiating help in late May.

Not hyperbole to say that RBA needs this win tonight more than any other game in his coaching career to date. #Canes

@GreatDayTarHeel Yes. I will fix.

@bivpack Sylvia Hatchell Anson Dorrance

The 30 Season ACC coaching club: Jim Boeheim - 47 seasons* Anson Dorrance - 45 Coach K - 42 Mike Martin - 40* Dean Smith - 36 Bobby Bowden - 34* Kay Yow - 34 Sylvia Hatchell - 33 Elliott Avent - 30 *Same team, but entire career not in ACC

Then I would advise Europeans not to attend any college football games with noon kickoffs.

@giglio_OG Not mathematically a must win, but yes this is a must win.

Related: The Canes have to win tonight. Money is on the table. Gold watch game

Game 1 Canes update:

Probably an unpopular opinion but I'm not really putting these 3 goals on Freddie. First 2 goals were guys alone with clear looks and banged them in. Texier's goal? Laser right through Slavin. Like, just tip your cap. Damn.

Thinking this in 2021 means you’re an idiot. Thinking this in 2026 means you’re a retard.

@magills_ @KatiePavlich How about those of us who didn’t freak out and wanted to carry on with normalcy?

Lunch costs $28 because you freaked out about the flu

@cliftonaduncan A fumble is accidental. What the WNBA has done is intentional.

2 years ago the WNBA had its first bona fide box office star in Caitlin Clark. Her team, the Indiana Fever, had to move its games into massive venues, and charge hundreds of dollars for tickets in response to demand to see her play. Even today, out of jersey sales for ALL basketball players, hers are second only to NBA star Steph Curry...meaning she sells even more jerseys than guys like Lebron James. But with the hype came extra scrutiny on a league that was clearly unprepared for the big time, and more interested in identity politics than in growth. Before, the story was about a generational talent. Now it's becoming about a generational fumble. I've never seen anything like it.

@BR_OpenIce @jrl_texas Yes

The time is 2:25p EST. Game 1 begins at 8:00p EST. There are already Canes fans tailgating 🔥
