The Carolina Hurricanes/Chicago Wolves hybrid seems unstoppable as they’ve once again put up five goals in a win, this time defeating the LA Kings 5-1 Saturday night at PNC Arena.
Players are stepping up and embracing the bigger roles they’ve been handed — namely Jesper Fast, Jesperi Kotkaniemi and Jack Drury — special teams are rolling, and Frederik Andersen is heating back up.
And with their next two games postponed — Nashville Predators on Sunday and Boston Bruins on Tuesday — Carolina will have some more time to get players closer to returning.
