Regular Season 12/28-1/3
Summary:
This week was really frustrating for the Carolina Hurricanes for all the right reasons. Since getting crushed by the Devils 5-1 on December 3rd (a month ago) the ‘Canes are 7-3-1 coming into this past week. The expectation was that this level of play would continue. For the most part it did, but a couple bad bounces and an overtime line change later, the Hurricanes ended this week with an average record of 1-1-1. The good news is that the quality of play and expectation of winning is rising fast in Carolina.
