NFL Play

So far, the Carolina Hurricanes have covered basketball and baseball. To this point they’ve left out football, yet it doesn’t seem like it would be that hard to engineer. If they managed to get a basketball hoop onto the ice, surely the can give a guy a football?

This one is pretty self explanatory. Two teams line up to face off against each other, it shall be designed so that Jaccob Slavin ends up as quarterback and Sebastian Aho the receiver, scoring the touchdown that should hopefully come.

The issue you might have with this one is whether Sebastian Aho can actually catch the long pass! Maybe this is why it is yet to be done. Even with Aho’s great hands, it could still be a little difficult to catch while on skates.

By having other sports involved, it opens the Carolina Hurricanes up to other fanbases that solely follow other sports. Football is arguably the biggest sport in the US, with the Super Bowl possibly the biggest sporting event in the world.

Now they actually had one planned on the same day as the super bowl vs the Calgary Flame  last season. But their celebration had to be put on ice as they failed to secure the win. Perhaps this year we can get to see it.
