Canes storm back to stun Oilers in OT, 3-2
Sebastian Aho's goal with seven seconds left in overtime pushed the Canes to a 3-2 win in Edmonton. Shayne Gostisbehere and Martin Necas each scored in the 3rd period as Carolina rallied from a 2-0 deficit after 40 minutes. Ghost, who notched his 3rd power play goal of the season, has now scored in 4 straight games. Necas' 2nd of the year tied the game with 6 1/2 minutes to play in regulation.

Canes summer complete as Jarvis signs deal
The Carolina Hurricanes completed their summer of contract signings with arguably their most important return. Seth Jarvis, the breakout star of 2024, signed an 8-year extension that will pay him $63.2 million over the life of the contract. Even though the average number is $7.9 million, the deal will only count for just over $7.4 million against the cap. I'll explain how, we'll discuss how the team approached the summer and the bad news on Jesper Fast.

The calm before the Canes' draft day storm
With just hours until the NHL draft and days until free agency begins the Carolina Hurricanes have a LOT of business to do. Will they sign Jake Guentzel? What about Jordan Martinook? Will Seth Jarvis get a long term contract or will the can be kicked down the road? If Martin Necas is traded what do they need in return? So many questiions and so little time to get answers.

Canes powerless to stop NYR early in 4-3 loss in Game 1
The Canes opened up their Eastern Conference Semi Final series with the Rangers much like they closed the last postseason series against New York, unable to control the Rangers' power play.

During the regular season the Hurricanes had the best penalty kill in the NHL but after New York scored on each of their two p...
