In their 4-3 loss to the Stars last night, the Hurricanes managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in absolutely vintage Hurricanes fashion. Scott Wedgewood became the latest addition to the team’s “turn-backup-goaltender-into-Vezina-candidate” trend, in an effort that had Rod Brind’Amour singing praises.
“I don’t know if I’ve seen a better game in 20 years being here as far as doing everything we were trying to do.” Brind’Amour said. “We just didn’t get it in the net as much as we’d like.”
….You think? I mean, the Canes only peppered 47 shots on goal.
