The Carolina Hurricanes seemed to be a step behind last night. That, or Henrik Lundqvist was three steps ahead. Regardless, I’m a big proponent of credit where credit is due. King Henrik gets his credit, as does Hurricanes’ rookie Eetu Luostarinen.
Luostarinen was originally picked by the Carolina Hurricanes in the second round, 42nd overall, in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft. I’ve been looking forward to seeing him get his shot with the big club for awhile now. While he didn’t find his way on to the score sheet, he definitely found his way into my phone’s notes app.
