Islanders-Hurricanes [game 8 thread]

Not sure what the audience here thinks of hybrid icing, but I like it so far. It's always made intuitive sense to me, it's good to essentially move the finish line out from the boards (currently it's at the dots), and if we'd had it last year, Joni Pitkanen would be in the Hurricanes lineup tonight rather than sitting out for the year and possibly for good.
