The @Canes are the 13th team in NHL history to overcome a deficit to win each of their first 3+ games in a season.

- For those wondering about Turbo’s Teammates that have been seen at the first two home games:
Tuevo is hosting a group from a children’s nonprofit at each game this season in an all-inclusive suite. Each group, known as Turbo’s Teammates, receives tickets, food & beverage, & an autographed Teravainen poster & a puck.
