Welcome to a Carolina Hurricanes season unlike any other we’ve ever gone through.
A franchise legend is the head coach. Longtime stalwarts, both in the front office and in the locker room, have moved on to pastures new. The locker room is renovated. The owner is openly, and in some cases proudly, flouting the typical Hockey Man convention of The Way Things Should Be Done. A cast of new, young players could either be a ticket to great success or a pending collapse under the weight of great expectations - and no one knows which will happen.
