About Last Night: Nearly Perfect

It was a monumental night in Raleigh last night as the Carolina Hurricanes hosted their first playoff game since 2009. Dougie Hamilton and Warren Foegele led the way offensively as Petr Mrazek shut the door on the other end to give the Canes a 5-0 victory over the Washington Capitals.

PNC Arena was absolutely electric from the moment the doors opened and the team played phenomenal hockey from start to finish. Yet, for as great as everything was, the scary ending to the Alex Ovechkin and Andrei Svechnikov fight kept last night from being a truly perfect storm.
