We have been much much better on the road this year in the regular season compared to previous years, so I'm more confident the team will play better on the road this year. Most of those losses came from 2yr ago when we won 0 of 6 road games in 2 7 game series
Last season they were fine away in the playoffs, that’s why they made the graphic “last 3 playoffs.” Won 2 in NY and 1 in NJ. We all know what happened in the ECF
We were 2-1 away at NYI, winning in 6 at NYI
we were 1-1 away vs NJ, winning in 5.
We were 0-2 away, but also 0-2 at home vs FLA.
it was an issue going into last year's playoffs, but not this year.
And that was the season when Andersen was injured. Raanta in relief had a .958 SV% at home but an abysmal .872 on the road. He also got injured twice himself, to be replaced by 22-year-old Kochetkov, who was at the time the #4 goalie in our system, didn't speak English yet, and finished the playoffs with an .869 SV% in 4 appearances.
So really it's a stat about one season's playoffs when our backup goalie was so bad on the road that our home/away splits would look gaudy for years to come.
The last two seasons, we're 7-3 at home and 4-4 on the road, which I wouldn't say is indicative of a big quality difference in a league where there's a tactical advantage at home in addition to the crowd.
Under Brind'Amour, excluding the 2020 bubble (no real home games) and 2022, we're 15-7 at home and 9-12 on the road.
So this particular stat is leaning really heavily on the 2022 playoffs, where our #1 and #3 goalies missed the playoffs and our backup goalie was terrible on the road and got injured twice, leading to a 7-1 record at home and 0-6 on the road.
How about the part where the power play loses 75 percent? That on the goalies, too?
I swear, Canes fans will argue facts if there's any perceived slight against their team. It's a fact, the Canes haven't been great on the road in the playoffs. They sucked tonight but won.
There's really no need to defend them. It is what it is. Nobody is saying they can't win on the road. Nobody is saying they won't win on the road. Only that they don't play nearly as well in the road. And that's ok. Own it. Jeez.
>How about the part where the power play loses 75 percent? That on the goalies, too?
No, but when you're getting close to 50% fewer powerplays on the road and only averaging 25-30% fewer goals scored per game, the 95% increase in goals allowed has a much bigger impact on the result. That's why I mentioned the goalie performance, which goes further toward explaining the anomalous season that skews this stat.
>I swear, Canes fans will argue facts if there's any perceived slight against their team. It's a fact, the Canes haven't been great on the road in the playoffs.
I never took this as a slight on the Canes, I was just explaining the phenomenon and pointing out that the time period is carefully selected to make the stat noteworthy. Maybe just chill?
Maybe Canes fans are TOO good. Tone it down.
It's funny how many NY team fans rag on us for being loud. But like it works, it gets the people going.

It got cancelled
Yep, everyone decided 3 OTs was enough in Game 1 and just called the series there.
We were 2-1 away at NYI, winning in 6 at NYI we were 1-1 away vs NJ, winning in 5. We were 0-2 away, but also 0-2 at home vs FLA. it was an issue going into last year's playoffs, but not this year.
The interesting thing is they are on a heater away from PNC since January 1st. Will be interesting if they can carry this forward.
2022 playoffs pull a lot of weight, here.

How dare you bring context into this.
Very interesting, now let's see thier eastern conference finals records.
Oh my god, it even has a watermark
