First of two against Ottawa

The Canes host the Ottawa Senators tonight and don’t look for a circus like what took place between the Banana peel Sabers and the Senators like this past Thursday/Saturday. Let’s see if the Canes can get another win and extend their streak to three games. They have only done that twice this season.
This is the first of a home and home with the Senators. I know that Johnny Grahame “Cracker” has played well in his last two games and I actually look for him to get the start tonight in net. As for the Sens, let’s see if Martin “zeee” Gerber “baby” is in net or if Ottawa stays with “Sugar Ray” Emery, who is probably one of the only net minders that ever took on a team’s tough guy and his team watched.
This game could sustain the bubble or burst the playoff bubble of the Canes who have let games slip away recently. If Carolina can stay out of penalty trouble and cash in on a power play chance, I believe that the winning streak stretches to three games. And with this being his second game in Carolina, I am anxious to see what Anson Carter can do both with the puck and with his physical play.
