For the Carolina Hurricanes, their current five game road trip will undoubtedly determine whether or not they have a chance of making the playoffs. Things got off to a great start last night as the Canes defeated their divisional rival, the Pittsburgh Penguins, by a score of 4-0.
Thanks to a total team effort that included outstanding goaltending, stellar defensive play, and timely offense, the Canes got back to their winning ways while creeping up to just four points back from 3rd place in the Metro - and three out of a wild card spot.
