Following a second-round exit from the playoffs at the hands of the Tampa Bay Lightning, the Carolina Hurricanes started their exit interviews for the season Thursday morning.
First up were rookie netminder Alex Nedeljkovic, a Calder Trophy finalist after posting a 15-5-3 record and 1.90 GAA, and defenseman Brett Pesce, who returned from a shoulder injury to play a full and productive season.
