A little love for my Hurricanes...

1) They beat Sid the Kid in overtime.
2) They are in the playoffs with this win - no matter what.
3) They are on a franchise-record winning streak!

Good point... and I don't have a problem with a team having a few big uglies who can get down, if necessary. That is certainly not Avery's role. Agitator? Please! What he does is disrespectful of the game in my eyes.

I am excited! Already had the playoff tickets paid for... and we are peaking right now. The addition of Eric Cole has been seamless and the 'Canes are playing with a lot of energy. The game tonight was incredible!

Gotta give it up for the Pittsburgh fans, tonight. They showed up in force (probably 25 % of the crowd) and cheered passionately. Enjoyed having them. Now Buffalo fans... that's a different story.
