Seven points out of the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, the Carolina Hurricanes roll into Calgary today knowing that they need two points to help keep their dim playoff hopes alive.
But as crucial as Tuesday night’s inter-conference matchup is, the game itself isn’t getting the most attention.
On Monday, the Hurricanes agreed to terms with Teuvo Teravainen on a long-term extension that will keep him in the red and black through the 2023-24 season.
“I’m really excited to be a part of this team going forward. I’ve really enjoyed my time here,” Teravainen said after the team’s practice in Calgary on Monday.
