Hurricanes Newsstand — April 10

The Hurricanes' winning streaks finally came to an end, but it was too little, too late for the Buffalo Sabres, who — along with Florida — were eliminated from postseason contention last night.

The final task at hand before the playoffs is determining seeding in the Eastern Conference. With one game remaining, the Canes could finish fourth, fifth or sixth.

Be sure to check out ESPN The Magazine's "For The Love Of The Game" video with Ray and Brijet Whitney and Matt Cullen.
