The Carolina Hurricanes have shown signs of brilliance throughout the 2015-2016 season, but they still find themselves on the outside looking in when it comes to the playoff race. The biggest reason for this is the inconsistent play of Cam Ward and Eddie Lack.
Ward and Lack have struggled, especially in the first half of the season, to stay at league average numbers, and even today, they both sport goals against average and save percentage numbers below the NHL average.
The question mark in net puts the Hurricanes in a tough spot going into the new year.
