Normally, in this space, we look at the Carolina Hurricanes’ action from the night before, picking out two or three storylines and delving into them to provide a coherent explanation of why the game went the way it did.
Today, we take a different tack: a one-subject plea for Rod Brind’Amour to please, please, please change up the top power play unit.
The Hurricanes’ loss to the New Jersey Devils yesterday included one power play goal in five attempts, and that one came with Petr Mrazek on the bench for the extra attacker.
