Friday night’s tilt against the Columbus Blue Jackets was going to be a big test for the Carolina Hurricanes, who were riding high after two wins over the lowly Philadelphia Flyers.
While the Blue Jackets were in Raleigh waiting for their opponent, the Canes had a late flight last night and had to make a quick turnaround. They had to start on time.
And they did.
The Hurricanes were buzzing from the jump. Warren Foegele jumped in, undressed Norris-candidate defenseman Seth Jones, and was hauled down in the process.
