It wasn’t a pretty game by any means for the Carolina Hurricanes in a 5-4 shootout to the Detroit Red Wings Saturday night at PNC Arena.
A combination of rubbish luck and inconsistent play spelled disaster for the Canes who lost yet another game to the bottom ranking Red Wings.
The game started off as one would have originally expected. The talent-laden Hurricanes just enforced their game on the Red Wings, cycling the puck off a steady supply of heavy forechecking and forcing turnovers and within a few minutes, Carolina had the lead.
