The Home Stretch - Canes at Rangers Preview

Ottawa Breaks Out - Sens 5, Canes 1
Two desperate teams met in Scotiabank Place last night, but only one team played like it. The Hurricanes fell behind early and could never put the foot on the gas enough to get much going while losing to the Ottawa Senators by a score of 5-1. The team came out with pretty good energy in the...
Hard Times at the RBC - Ducks 4 Canes 1
For the moment, the Carolina Hurricanes seem to be a snake-bitten hockey team while competing at the RBC. After playing the Anaheim Ducks to a draw in the opening period last night, they completely dominated them in the second period, outshooting the Ducks 17-3. They hit the post, they missed...
Carolina Blues - Thrashers 3, Canes 2

Iron City Meltdown - Pens 4, Canes 1
The Carolina Hurricanes lost to the Pittsburgh Penguins last night by a score of 4-1. The Canes started the game out on a decent note, taking a 1-0 lead on Brandon Sutter's first career NHL goal. Sutter took the puck from a bumbling Brooks Orpik, who mis-played the puck right in front of the...
Canes Find a New Way to Win
The Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Anaheim Ducks by a score of 3-1 last night in Anaheim. The Canes scored first in the contest, the only time they have done that all season. Eric Staal zipped a pass across the crease to a wide open Ryan Bayda, who made no mistake. The team came out with a...
