Canes Corner

Frederik Andersen's first start in almost 10 weeks was the panacea the Hurricanes were looking for. Andersen returned from a lower body injury to make 21 saves and posted a start-to-finish solid game in net for the Canes as they ended the 4-game losing streak with a dominant, 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets. The first five goals came from the blue line as Brett Pesce scored twice, Brent Burns, Jacco...

Everything was going well until there was about 1 minute left in the 2nd period. Then the Devils scored twice in an 18 second span and Carolina went on to lose to New Jersey, 5-3, for their 4th straight loss. Pyotr Kochetkov struggled for the 3rd straight game and Carolina wasted two shorthanded goals, one by Jesperi Kotkaniemi and the other by Sebastian Aho in the loss. Carolina will head to Colu...

From the Shock at the Rock to the Miracle at Molson to Game 7's in Washington and Raleigh, Adam is joined by Mike Sundheim of the Hurricanes and Luke DeCock of the News and Observer to talk about the games that have shaped this franchise.

The Carolina Hurricanes fired 67 shots at Nashville goalie Juuse Saros -- a franchise record number -- but only got 3 of them through and lost, 5-3. Carolina has now dropped 2 straight after winning 11 in a row. Max Pacioretty made his Hurricanes debut, had 6 of the Hurricanes' record total shots, but couldn't find the range. Andrei Svechnikov had a team-high 8 SOG and 10 individual scoring chance...

The Carolina Hurricanes' 11-game winning streak came to a halt at Madison Square Garden last night as the Rangers rallied with three 3rd period goals in a 5-3 win. Artemi Panarin, K'Andre Miller and Filip Chytl turned a 3-2 deficit into a 5-3 win as the Canes also saw their 17-game streak with at least a point come to an end. Brent Burns, Martin Necas and Jalen Chatfield all scored for Carolina wh...

Carolina has now won 11 in a row and earned at least one point in 17 straight games (15-0-2). Andrei Svechnikov's shootout goal was the only one to find its way through and when Raanta stopped Jack Hughes penalty try the celebration was on. Carolina n...

The Carolina Hurricanes beat the Florida Panthers, 4-0, at PNC Arena Friday night extending their winning streak to 10 games. That's the longest in franchise history.

The Canes scored three times on the power play and turned...

The last time, on November 14 at the United Center, it was Pyotr Kochetkov's 1st NHL shutout. Tonight it was Raanta's first clean she...

The Carolina Hurricanes hung on for a 6-5 win over the Philadelphia Flyers Friday night, going into the Christmas break on an 8-game winning streak and boasting a franchise best 14 game point streak. The Jordan Staal, Jordan Martinook and Jesper Fast line was the Hurricanes' best -- again -- combining for 3 goals and 5 assists as Carolina built a 6-2 lead through two periods. What happened in the...

The Hurricanes stretched their point streak to 13 games with a 4-3 OT win over the Penguins in Pittsburgh. Jordan Staal's wrap around goal with less than five minutes left in regulation helped send the game into OT. And, once there, Jaccob Slavin finished off a great pass from Seth Jarvis for the win. On the play, Brent Burns recorded the 800th point in his career. In all, Carolina got two goals a...

Pyotr Kochetkov makes 37 saves, Jordan Staal scored his 9th of the season -- and the 5th time in the last 9 games -- and the Carolina Hurricanes reclaimed the top spot in the Metropolitan Division with a 4-1 win over the New Jersey Devils. Jesperi Kotkaniemi opened the scoring just 20 seconds into the opening period winning a couple of net-front battles en route to his 4th goal of the year. Staal...

Svechnikov's 16th of the year came off a turnover midway through the first period. Then another forced mistake led to Stepan's 1st, a whistling wrist shot just below the crossbar that beat Seattle's Philipp Grubaue...

Pyotr Kochetkov made 27 saves, Brady Skjei scored the lone goal of the game and the Canes beat the Red Wings, 1-0 in Detroit. Carolina closes out their longest road trip of the season 5-0-1 and have now extracted at least one point from 10 consecutive road games (6-0-4). The win, coupled with the Devils loss to the Stars (Saturday's opponent at PNC Arena) narrows New Jersey's lead in the Metro to...

The Hurricanes spotted the Blues 2 goals, lost the battle of starting goaltenders and gave up a pair of power play goals. But, when you have Jordan Martinook, Jordan Staal and Jesper Fast on your side, that makes up for a lot of mistakes. The Captain's line was as dominant as ever, Martinook registered his first hat trick since November of 2018 and the Canes won their 3rd in a row.

Brett Pesce waited 22 games before he scored his first of the year, helping the Canes to beat Calgary, 3-2, on Saturday. That was so much fun, he decided to do it again, converting an Andrei Svechnikov feed into the OT winner as Carolina won for the second straight game, 3-2. Martin Necas (11th) and Svechnikov (14th) each scored, Sebastian Aho dished off a pair of assists. And, Carolina overcame t...

The Hurricanes winless streak continued with a 3-2 overtime loss in Boston. On the bright side, Carolina did score two power play goals.

David Pastrnak's 14th goal of the year won it for the Bruins in overtime. Boston is now 12-...

The Hurricanes were shut out by the Coyotes, 4-0, on Thanksgiving eve. Carolina is winless since last Monday in Chicago and have scored just 18 goals in their last 9 games. The power play is scoreless in their last 6 games and is just 1 for the last 28. But, it's Thanksgiving, so enjoy your family and we'll run it all back on Friday when the Canes meet the Bruins in Boston.

With six minutes to play in Winnipeg Rod Brind'Amour threw up his hands, yanked rookie goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov from his crease and tried something -- anything -- to spark his team. What happened next -- goals from Jaccob Slavin, Andrei Svechnikov and Martin Necas -- is really sports in a nutshell. Anything can happen because these games are the greatest, unscripted reality shows on TV. Carolina...

Carolina dominated the shot chart, had more than twice the puck possession and triple the scoring chances -- especially those in the high danger areas -- but could only muster two goals and fell in overtime to the Avalanche, 3-2. The Hurricanes are either lucky or unlucky to be 10-5-2 on the season. Either way, we're bound to find out over the next few weeks. Nine of the Hurricanes next 11 games a...
