It’s Thanksgiving, and the Carolina Hurricanes could use one major thing that would make the entire fan base thankful. That one thing would be making the playoffs for the first time since 2009, when the Canes lost to the Pittsburgh Penguins in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Making the playoffs would mean a lot to the Canes fan base, and it starts with getting the most out of some of the best players on the roster. That includes the best efforts from head coach Bill Peters to get this team going.
The Nov. 22 loss to the New York Rangers was a small setback for Carolina, after the 6-1 whopping at PNC Arena in Raleigh.
