Could you tell how crappy the ice was, Joe? They had a basketball game (NC State) 5 hours before the hockey game, it was still covering the ice surface 2 hours before game time. Puck looked like a superball.

I watched for you in the crowd, but didn't see you.

Ice did seem to be a little off... saw several times when skates lost edges. That must be why the 'Canes won.

I was in section 109, Row Z, Seat 17. Here was my view...

Looks like a great view Joe!

Like Patrick Sharp commented about the ice condition after the first period, "both teams have to play on the same ice, so it's no excuse".
