Carolina ends losing streak with hard earned win in San Jose Elias Lindholm scored a goal and set up the game-winning goal as the Carolina Hurricanes won the final game of their road trip, 3-2 over the San Jose Sharks in overtime late Tuesday night. This was definitely the best overall effort since the Olympic break for the Canes. The Sharks have one of the best home records in the NHL and were...
Goalie will make $2 million next year and $2.5 million the following The Carolina Hurricanes just announced that they signed goalie Anton Khudobin to a two-year contract extension for $2 million next season and $2.5 million the following.

s just what they did in Raleigh on December 6, 2013, when a four-goal third period capped off by a three-point night from Elias Lindholm led to a 5-3 win over the San Jose Sharks. Tonight they have an opportunity to close out a disappointing road trip on a positive note if they can muster a similar effort at the Shark Tank. What to know about the Sharks: The Sharks are back home for the first time...
s first goal. In the third period, Patrick Dwyer and Alexander Semin scored the goals for the visitors. Semin's goal was on a breakaway with just 65 seconds left. Andersen, a former draft pick of the Hurricanes who could not get signed and re-entered the draft, made 49 saves on a total of 52 shots. His counter-part, Cam Ward , made 29 saves on 34 shots. The Canes will take tomorrow off...
t score. They are ranked 27th in the league in goals per game, and 27th on the power play. They play an offensively conservative game and rely on strong goaltending and dominating possession to be successful, and lead the league with the least goals allowed per game, rank 3rd in shots allowed per game, and 6th in five-on-five goal differential. And despite their challenges generating offense, they've...
Canes lose fourth in a row and now have dropped six of last eight The Carolina Hurricanes continue to put more and more distance between themselves and playoff hockey as they lost a 3-1 game to the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday afternoon at the Staples Center. The team was looking for a better effort than they got in Dallas the other night and got it, but it still was not good enough for a win. Suddenly...
Canes start out flat in Dallas and allow two shorties in third straight loss The Carolina Hurricanes had a slow start in Dallas and ended up losing 4-1 to the Stars on Thursday night in the second game of their five game road trip. Tyler Seguin made it 1-0 on a nice feed from rookie sensation Valeri Nichushkin just 3:18 into the game. Less than three minutes later, Brenden Dillon blasted an open shot...
t won there in regulation since they were the Hartford Whalers. In the last ten years, Dallas has a 9-0-1 home record against the Canes and a five-game home winning streak. The Stars are 5-1-0 in their last six games against the Canes, with the last Canes win coming in Raleigh on December 16, 2009.

s been since Carolina finished last in the NHL in 2003-04 at 10.6 percent. 2. Cam Ward played well enough in his first game in nearly two months, but he is a long way removed from being Ryan Miller’s equal. Miller proved that Wednesday, standing on his head to send Carolina to a loss in a game they desperately needed. As for Ward, the first goal he allowed is on him — a puck that hit his...
s number one, at least for now. In the same number of games that Cam Ward has played in, (20), he has allowed 18 fewer goals while facing 11 more shots. 2013-2014 - Regular Season - Carolina Hurricanes - Goaltender - Summary Player Team GP GS W L OT GA GAA Sv Sv% TOI Anton Khudobin CAR 20 19 13 6 0 41 2.14 523 .927 1,151:48 Justin Peters CAR 21 20 7 9 4 51 2.50 575 .919 1,225:20 Cam Ward CAR...

The Canes outshot the home team 38-18 but Ryan Miller made 36 saves as the Sabres earned just their 40th point of the season. Cam Ward was in net for the first time since December 31st, but did...

s frame of mind when they come back for their first game. Will they take things easy and try to work themselves back into a mentality where every period is important, or will they be that way from the drop of the puck in Buffalo? It will be March before you know it, which means that it will be April very soon as well. There is not much time to right the ship and get above the playoff line....

Carey Price shuts down Canes The Carolina Hurricanes visit in third place in the Metro Division was short-lived as they fell behind again but could not come back this time while dropping a contest to the Montreal Canadiens , 3-0 on Tuesday night in Montreal. The Canes outshot the Habs and played fairly well, considering it was the second game of a back-to-back, as well as their fifth game in seven...
s largest accumulation of the season. While the week might have ended on a low note, it was otherwise fantastic. The Canes started the week 5 points out of the final playoff spot and had to play 5 games in 7 days. Not exactly a recipe for success. But Carolina won the postponed game against the Flyers and then traveled to Buffalo for a back-to-back against the Sabres . While the Canes found themselves...
ve been resting and stewing, waiting for the Canes to come to town tonight. There is no doubt that the Habs will look to give the Canes their best shot and take advantage of the Canes having played last night. This will be the first meeting between the two teams since New Year's Eve. Caniacs will remember that as one of the most exciting games of the season. Montreal took a 3-0 lead...
