First I would like to say, this year as Hurricanes fans we rooted for the playoffs. This team gave us something that we could never have thought was possible, a trip to the Eastern Conference Final. Regardless of what happens in game four, most of these players now have playoff experience which is valuable and we now have the ability to build a winning culture.
