In all of the excitement surrounding the acquisition of Nino Niederreiter, it may have temporarily escaped the notice of Carolina Hurricanes fans that the team was spanked 6-2 by the New York Rangers in their last game. Tonight sees the Canes return to the ice, hopefully desperate to prove a point but almost certainly more dangerous thanks to the inbound talents of the aforementioned Swiss superstar.
Where Nino Niederreiter fits in on this Carolina Hurricanes team remains to be seen – and it may be several weeks before we find out who he has the most chemistry with.
