Carolina Hurricanes: Devoured by Sharks, lose 5-1
Things are getting a little bit desperate for the Carolina Hurricanes, who slipped to their third consecutive loss last night against the San Jose Sharks. We take a look back at the action, and try to make sense of what is happening to this talented yet struggling team.
This Carolina Hurricanes team has benefited from solid goaltending and good defense all season. However, the team simply cannot score at the moment despite leading the entire NHL in shots taken and being outshot just four times in 27 games. A single solitary goal from Lucas Wallmark was all the team had to show for their 40 shots on goal last night, and that came on a powerplay once the team was already 4-0 down.
