Carolina Hurricanes: Crashing the net is key to success

The Carolina Hurricanes might have finally found a formula for success on the offensive attack. And, that x-factor is crashing the net. It’s a strategy that has been around forever in the hockey world, but the Canes have not found much offense any other way.

Derek Ryan scored the game-winning goal for the Canes against the Florida Panthers on Nov. 7 in that exact way. Brock McGinn’s goal that originally gave the Canes the lead was also a result of both him and Victor Rask attacking the net to get a rebound from Robert Luongo off a Roland McKeown setup.
