I’ll admit I was nervous staring December in the face, but the Carolina Hurricanes reminded us why they made it Eastern Conference Final last season. They outperformed my expectations of a 6-6-1 record, and finished 8-4-1 for the month.
Last month, the Carolina Hurricanes made good on a tough road trip by earning 9 of a possible 10 points. The only blemish last month was a 3-game losing streak in which they dropped games to the Florida Panthers, Toronto Maple Leafs, and New York Rangers.
If you’ve read my look-ahead pieces before, you’ll remember I make predictions each month.
