In a month that has historically given the Carolina Hurricanes fits, they found a way to salvage a slow start and give this team a positive look at the month ahead.
The team got off to an 0-3-0 start with losses to the Nashville Predators, Detroit Red Wings and Florida Panthers. That immediately put the “Oh, here we go again” thoughts into the minds of many surrounding the team.
A bad start led to the most challenging road trip of the season for the Hurricanes, a seven-game, fourteen day trip that would take the team to the East Coast, West Coast, and everywhere in between.
