Solid

It's funny what a little bit of effort and hard work will do for you. The Canes played a solid game tonight and pulled off a 3-1 win over the Kitties from Florida. All three goals were effort goals: A Stillman putback of a loose puck, Walker fighting for the puck under Belfour, and the Brindy deflection short handed. Those are the kind of hard working goals this team needs to consistently get in order to break out of this goal-scoring slump.

The game would have been a shutout if not for the perfect example of the famed Olé Defense as demonstrated by Joe Vasicek. Nice one.
