Recap: Hurricanes keep perfect record intact, dispatch woebegone Blackhawks
Kaydee Gawlik Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Antti Raanta saves the puck during the game against the Chicago Blackhawks, Friday, Oct. 29, 2021 in PNC Arena. The Canes won against the Blackhawks, 6-3.A game on the back half of a back-to-back, against the league’s second-worst team, seems like the perfect candidate for a trap game, and to be honest at times the Carolina Hurricanes did look a little heavy-legged on Friday night at PNC Arena.
Fortunately for the Hurricanes, the hapless Chicago Blackhawks were all too happy to play the role of the Washington Generals, providing little more than token defensive resistance as the Hurricanes cruised to a 6-3 romp.
