The Carolina Hurricanes have climbed back into a tie with the Columbus Blue Jackets for the final Eastern Conference wild card spot after the Blue Jackets fell on the West Coast Friday night. To do so, the Canes had to win a tight, low-scoring battle of their own, indicative of the types of games this team was originally built by General Manager Ron Francis to play in and win. While they have not won nearly as many of those games as they would have liked thus far this season, any hopes for the Canes to make a last-ditch postseason run will be built on winning carbon copies of Friday night’s performance.
