The Carolina Hurricanes still have 15 home games remaining on the season. These three games are the ones you cannot afford to miss.

When playing at home the Carolina Hurricanes have a decided advantage. So far this season they are 17-8-1 When playing at PNC Arena. That is about a 2:1 win loss ratio. That is incredible. In fact only a single team in the NHL has more wins at home, the Pittsburgh penguins, but we will have the opportunity to sour their record in the future.

What does this all mean? It means that if you have been holding out to see if these are the same ol’ Hurricanes of the past to go to a game, it’s time to stop holding out. It also means if you have been consistently going, you have been rewarded time and time again. 17 home wins also meant 17 Storm Surges at the All Star break so far with another 15 opportunities to come.

With a division as ruthless as the Metro division this also means that the wins have to keep coming, especially at home if they want to ensure another playoff spot come April. Last season they finished the 41 home games with a 24-13-4 record and are on pace this season for a 27-12-2 finish to this season, perhaps even better.

So why not be in the stands when the final horns are blown and Skol clap begins as they team Storm Surges once again? Ideally you would go to every single remaining home game of the season, but which three games are the ones you should not miss at any cost? Lucky for you, this article has the answers you are looking for!
