The Carolina Hurricanes Will Return to the Stanley Cup Playoffs

Yup. That’s right folks. Go ahead and tell me I am going to jinx it, but the Carolina Hurricanes will be back in the playoffs and won’t be golfing come mid-April. Although, the year 2020 has not been fantastic for the Canes so far, things will change and the team will step up and do what it needs to.

If you remember last season ringing in from January 2019 to April 2019, the Canes managed to win 30 out of 43 games to make it into the playoffs. I believe that the Carolina Hurricanes will have an even bigger and stronger run than that in 2020 because they want to finish both in the playoffs and as a Top-3 team in the Metropolitan Division.

Side Prediction: The Canes will make an even farther run then they did last year in the playoffs.
