Carolina Hurricanes One of Two Teams to Vote No on 24 Team Playoffs

The Carolina Hurricanes were one of only two teams that voted against the grain when the 24 team format of the playoffs was presented to the NHLPA.

It’s not hard to see why. With the new format the Carolina Hurricanes are forced to play against the New York Rangers, a team by all rights, shouldn’t even have a ticket to the show, let alone go against a rising team in the Canes. This is the team that had to give a written apology to their fans just a year ago.

To make matters worse, the Rangers are coming with a renewed energy, with their seasons saved by a literal act of God.
