The Carolina Hurricanes are 2-0-0 after a pair of victories to begin the season against the Devils and the Flyers. They've gotten good performances from pretty much every player in their lineup to this point. Everything seems to be clicking, outside of their power play, for everyone. That's the good news.
The bad news is that the injury bug is rearing its ugly head early this season, and it might've gotten one of the team's most valuable players before the second week. It all began with Pyotr Kochetkov, who wasn't available for the first game, propelling newly claimed Brandon Bussi into the backup spot.
