In recent times, the Carolina Hurricanes have seen a lot of their blueline suffer. Two of the normal top 7 are out with serious injuries. One of the top four has just seen his traditionally solid performances go through an incredibly rough time and General Manager Don Waddell has said that the team will likely look to reinforce their backend as we approach the trade deadline later this month.
This was all well and good until yesterday when a rumor arose from the Fourth Period, listing three top 4 defensemen that the Carolina Hurricanes have apparently been sniffing around.
