The Hurricanes surprised the entire league after making the playoffs for the first time in a decade in a postseason campaign that carried the team all the way to the Eastern Conference Finals.
This past season was an absolute rollercoaster for all of us. After starting off the first few months of the season in a relatively lukewarm fashion, the Hurricanes found a whole new gear, and shifted directly to it for the rest of the season. The Canes had one of the best records in the league after January 1st, second only to the President’s Trophy-winning Tampa Bay Lightning.
