With seven games in the books for the 2017-2018 Carolina Hurricanes, the team’s record sits at 3-3-1. This looks to be a pretty much squarely average team in the early going of the season.
When a team’s record hovers around .500, it’s typically pretty safe to assume that about half of the roster has been performing well while the other half has not. For the Hurricanes so far, there have been a lot of players who are teetering on the fence between hot and cold so far. Players like Justin Faulk, Noah Hanifin, Sebastian Aho, and Elias Lindholm are some of the players who fit that bill.
