About Last Night: Even Strength no longer seeming like a strength
Photo by Richard T Gagnon/Getty ImagesThe Carolina Hurricanes held the lead after a strong first period.
They had a poor second and couldn’t close.
Then they lost in overtime after getting into penalty trouble.
Deja vu, huh?
The Canes have been playing out the same formula for a bit now and shockingly the results have been much the same.
AKA: not good.
It’s now five games in a row without a win and Carolina has lost eight of its last 10 games.
The team is spiraling and it’s no longer just the special teams floundering. The Hurricanes have gone the last 232:54 of game time without an even strength goal. That’s nearly four full games. That’s really, really not good.
