1. Trocheck Scoring On His Old Team Again

Doesn’t it feel nice to be on the other end of this one?

For the longest time, it seemed like the Carolina Hurricanes were cursed. Almost every single player the Canes have traded away have come back to play the Canes and then score on them, without fail.

This time, the tables have been turned. Vincent Trocheck has scored on his old team every single time he’s played them this season.

Hopefully this trend continues, because it feels so refreshing to finally have the guy on your team who faithfully scores against his old team consistently.
