It is February 26, 2019 and the Carolina Hurricanes are in a playoff spot.
This is, in case you haven’t kept up with the larger state of affairs of the league, an unusual spot for the Hurricanes to be in. Per Hurricanes beat reporter Sara Civian, this is the first time the Hurricanes have found themselves positioned as such since 2011.
For a team frequently thought of as being on the cusp of returning to relevance, but which never quite managed to meet expectations, the fact that they’re in this position at all is refreshing.
