Canes Prevail Over Lightning in Shootout, 3-2
The Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning, 3-2 in a shootout on Sunday to break a three game losing streak, two of which were at home. It was also the team's first shootout win of the season. The Canes lost their only other shootout game this year in Montreal, a team which will be...
Iron City Meltdown - Pens 4, Canes 1
The Carolina Hurricanes lost to the Pittsburgh Penguins last night by a score of 4-1. The Canes started the game out on a decent note, taking a 1-0 lead on Brandon Sutter's first career NHL goal. Sutter took the puck from a bumbling Brooks Orpik, who mis-played the puck right in front of the...
Carolina Outscores Florida 6-4
In a wild and wooley back and forth game, the Hurricanes were able to find the back of the net a couple more times than the Panthers were able to, and came away with a 6-4 victory Friday night at the RBC. The Canes had six different goal scorers and netted two goals in each period. Dan...
Capitals 5, Hurricanes 2
Something came up and I missed the contest last night, but according to all reports the Canes played a much better game than they did on Wednesday. After the "Junior Canes" jumped out to a 2-0 lead, the Washington regulars woke up and took control of the game. Dan LaCouture had one goal while...
Tough Enough - Canes Drop Mits 44 Times Last Season

"Fun Fest" Highlights
I went over to the RBC last night to check out how the Carolina Hurricanes first "Fun Fest" was going. I'm not very good at guessing the number of heads in a crowd, but if I had to make a guess I would say that there were probably a few hundred people in attendance. While the crowd looked a bit...
The Big Money - Reviewing Day One of "Crazy Daze"
Some NHL players must have felt like they just won the lottery yesterday. Let's take a quick look around and review some of the deals finalized on day one. Agents are still partying as we speak. Green signs in Washington for 21M over 4 years. (good deal for both sides) Stuart...
Tales of the Tape: Carolina 10-24, Eric Godard vs. Wade Brookbank
What's that? Bissonnette's fight not enough for you? A little under the halfway point in the 2nd period, Eric Godard got into the fighting act against Wade Brookbank, but it didn't quite work out so well for him as it did for B-Net (nickname approved by Pensburgh's own Frank!). Godard started...
