The Canes are back in Raleigh after a five game roadtrip to make way for March Madness at the PNC Arena. The team hosts the Buffalo Sabres for the first and only time this season. The Hurricanes will be searching for their first win against the Sabres this season after losing to them in late November and earlier this month.
The Carolina Hurricanes are still mathematically in the hunt for the playoffs, but last week just about put their playoff dreams to bed. The team only earned two points from a possible six while other teams, like the Pittsburgh Penguins and Philadelphia Flyers, continued their winning ways.
