The Carolina Hurricanes lost to the Minnesota Wild on Saturday at PNC Arena in a matchup of two of the NHL's best teams. Kirill Kaprizov scored for the ...
The Wild, playing the first game of a four-game road trip, did its part defensively in the game, blocking 17 shots, clearing the zone, keeping tight gaps. The Canes tested Fleury with 15 shots in the second period, from all angle. Late in the period, Martin Necas ripped a shot from the left wing that found metal. The Wild made it 2-0 in the second after snuffing out a Canes power play. “We had a lot of Grade-A chances and obviously Fleury stood on his head.” It was that kind of night and game for the Canes (45-16-8), the Metropolitan Division leaders.

It’s obviously frustrating, but it’s part of the game.” “And even the one we gave up (to Kulikov) was a shorthanded one, essentially. Carolina pulled Andersen with nearly four minutes left in regulation and did get another by Fleury with 37 seconds remaining. “We just didn’t execute on the power play there, the one,” Brind’Amour said. RALEIGH — The Carolina Hurricanes have seen plenty of Marc-Andre Fleury throughout his NHL career. “We played hard,” Hurricanes coach Rod Brind’Amour said.
Carolina's magic number to clinch a playoff spot is just 4 and a win tonight would give the Canes a mathematical chance to clinch tomorrow despite not playing.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Marc-Andre Fleury has been getting the job done in a brief time since joining the Minnesota Wild. Kirill Kaprizov has been putting it ...
Kaprizov’s goal came at 7:24 of the third. “We’ve got the good bounces as of late.” That was Kulikov’s fifth goal of the season, but the defenseman’s first since Feb. 16. Alex Goligoski rejoined the lineup. The Hurricanes had a six-game points streak end. “We have to focus right away,” Kaprizov said.
Looking at a player who was drafted by the Hurricanes, and went to conditioning camps, but never actually played a game with the team.
For Jordan Staal, it meant joining his brother and ultimately becoming captain of the Hurricanes, leading them out of the rough years the mid-2010s brought. Even though he has seen his fair share of injuries, Dumoulin has continued to impress in the Penguins lineup and is strong in his role as a defender. It is a trade that will go down in the history of the Penguins and Hurricanes franchises, and one that fans will always remember. He is a strong defender, but his time in the NHL has been plagued with injuries. He helped the team get to the offseason where he tallied two goals and six assists in 24 games. They became the first team to win it in back-to-back years since the Red Wings did it in 1997 and 1998. He played in his first NHL game on December 14, 2013, against the Detroit Red Wings and recorded his first NHL point two days later against the Toronto Maple Leafs. After six games he was sent back to the WBS Penguins and was with them for their 2014 Calder Cup playoff run. In his first professional season with the WBS Penguins, he had 24 points in 79 games. In his first season, he led the BC Eagles to the Frozen Four where the team won over the Wisconsin Badgers. A little over two months after signing his entry-level contract, the Hurricanes made a blockbuster trade that left fans with their mouths on the ground. At the conclusion of the tournament, the Hurricanes signed him to an entry-level contract. His next step was to join a bantam team in New Hampshire where he played with Garnet Hathaway of the Washington Capitals and his future Pittsburgh Penguins teammate, Casey DeSmith. After bantam, he joined his high school team and helped them win back-to-back state championships.
How good is today's NHL slate of action? Let's take a look at our NHL odds series, where our Wild-Hurricanes pick and prediction will be revealed.
At first glance, the Wild are going to have their hands full with a Carolina team that plays as good at home as anyone in hockey. Carolina enters play as a bunch that will beat you up physically until you run out of gas as games progress into the later stages. The Hurricanes are currently tied with the Panthers at 98 points, good enough for the most in the all but competitive Eastern Conference. Winners of three of their past four games, the Hurricanes desperately need the victorious outing to continue in order to keep pace with the rest of the conference. Defenseman Jon Merrill exited early against Pittsburgh with an upper-body injury and will be absent for play on Saturday. Minnesota will need to find a way to replace Merrill’s impactful production, as the Wild’s feisty defender spends 17 minutes on the ice on average each game. Even with the most recent loss versus the Penguins, the Wild are 7-1-2 during their previous ten games, as they continue to rack up the points and are keeping pace with the Flames and Avalanche in the wild, wild, west. In another marquee matchup between two squads looking to make some noise on what has been successful seasons so far, the Minnesota Wild travel to the Tar Heel State to take on the Carolina Hurricanes in what should be an instant classic.
