Ben Case: Hurricanes Looking To Keep Powerplay Streak From 2014 Alive Against Jets A year ago yesterday the Carolina Hurricanes (1-0-1) were playing on the road against the Winnipeg Jets. (2-2-0) The Hurricanes started strong and took a 4-1 lead only to watch the Jets claw back and win it 5-4 in OT. Despite that one blemish, the Hurricanes have done well recently against the Jets and hold a 3-0-1 in their last four meetings.

Canes need a strong state fair road swing to energize the base for this season.

Need at least 6 points out of possible 8.

Good analysis. Sad thing is if it wasn't for our player deployment and beer league coaching our top 9 could be as good as any in the league.

Sounds like the Jets are the answer for the Canes moribund powerless-play......EH?
It's surely in need of some TLC, AND... Brindy better fix it ASAP!
Go Canes!!!

That'd be a good start for attendance. I'd be interested to see if there is much of an improvement in attendance for them if they came back with a record of 4-1-1.

It would seem that WPG is the cure historically for Hurricanes PP.

The PP had good chances v. CLB. They had better puck movement than I've seen from them in a long time and set up a few good one-timers in the OT.

When you only allow 21 shots against you should win roughly 90% of the time.

good, good for the most part. TVR is hurt though.

Darling has been solid for the most part. Guys have got to be better around him though.

Kruger is a gamer. Guy doesn't give up on anything.

Dammit. Hopefully not one of his legs. He had to fight through some really bad injuries to make it. Love his quiet simple game. Very good 3rd pair guy.

Yeah, Kruger is a pain in the ass for other teams. He's great at flipping the ice for O-zone draws for the top line guys.

Concussion.


Didn't make the trip to Winnipeg but sounds like he's joining the team in Edmonton. Will probably only miss a couple games.
