well. It was a hard start to the week, but a good ending to the week. Carolina went to Dallas lost for one there came home to Ottawa four win. Ottawa at the time and fell to the Senators strangely enough, their worst game of the week, saturday night, six to win over the Buffalo Sabers. Such are the vagaries of the sport of hockey. There are some underlying factors though. Why maybe Carolina struggled in the first couple of games. They've been having a hard time finding the back of the net, generating plenty of chances. But what do you do with those chances that ultimately determines winners and losers in the game, but also some roster attrition Carolina dealing with Covid issue, especially on the back end, Ethan Bear defenseman was in Covid protocol had been stuck in a san Jose hotel room for 10 days Brett pesci Tony DeAngelo Carolina's two best right shot defenseman. Both out, especially without Ethan Bear in the lineup. Both out with Covid. They won't even make the current Western Canada road trip. So they were out call ups. Come up. Carolina played pretty well, just didn't get a win until the six to win over the Sabers to vote Carolina. Congratulations to him. It gets goal number 100 in the loss to Ottawa and he picked up a couple more against the Buffalo Sabers. Sebastian aho with three assists in the game last night and five in his last two games as Carolina's better players are starting to get cranked up martin natures and a spectacular wraparound goal andre statue called before a little finger injury. He had some repairs on that. He should be okay. But andre finally got a goal after just one in his previous 14 games. So the hurricanes go to Winnipeg on Tuesday, Calgary on thursday, Edmonton and Vancouver saturday and sunday late night. So I don't know what we're gonna do. Are we gonna join you next sunday? I hope we will. But the hurricanes now 16, 6 and one on the season, third place in the Metropolitan Division, hoping to stay healthy as they head on the road to Western Canada.
