I can’t believe I’m writing those words. They even sound weird to say. ‘The Carolina Hurricanes have swept the New York Islanders in Round 2 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.’
If you’d have told me on October 4th, 2018 that the Hurricanes would eventually be in a position to sweep the team visiting us that night I’d have laughed right in your face. Don’t get me wrong; I’ve had a tremendous amount of faith in the Hurricanes all season long, and rightfully so.
The Hurricanes have finally restored confidence to the vast majority of the fanbase who have stuck with the team through the highs and lows of the past decade.
