Last year, Forslund signed a deal with the Kraken to become their play-by-play announcer beside JT Brown. The meeting also will see former Hurricanes play-by-play announcer John Forslund, calling against the team he spent nearly thirty years with. It will be the first time former Hurricane Morgan Geekie will be playing against his old club. This could mean that the Hurricanes will have an easy last game of their west coast tour, but if the Kraken are able use home ice to their advantage against the red hot Canes, it could boost their confidence.

THW’s Sean Raggio recently took a dive into the in consistences that they are facing. At the helm of the Kraken is former Hurricanes General Manager and team captain, Ron Francis. The Kraken have a less than stellar start to their inaugural season sitting at 4-10-1 with a meagre 9 points, tied with Ottawa, but are still six points ahead of the Arizona Coyotes who have a lowly five points. The last time that the Capitals visited the Kings, Ovechkin scored a hat trick, and given that Ovechkin and Evgeny Kuznetsov are having a strong season, they will give the Kings a run for their money. It could give them time to rest after what is certain to be a tough game. While the Canes will be playing games every other night on this trip, the Kings will get a two-day break between Wednesday night’s game against Alexander Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals and the Hurricanes. The game will be the second of the Kings seven-game home stand. The Kings are improving their game this year, holding steady at third in the NHL behind Carolina (1.93) and Calgary (2.13) for goals per game (2.73). Saturday’s loss against the Winnipeg Jets may have snapped the win streak, but it kept the point streak alive as the loss was handed to them in a 2-3 overtime loss. They had a six-game losing streak that was promptly followed with a seven-game winning streak. The Kings have been on streaks lately, both of the winning and losing variety keeping them at a record of 8-5-2. Cam Fowler of the Ducks is right on their tail with thirteen points. On the defensive end, Tony DeAngelo with the Canes and the Ducks’ Kevin Shattenkirk are both tied at fourteen and will be wanting to keep their points extending upward. As of November 17, Svechnikov is sitting at ninth in the NHL for points with a total of 18, while American Terry is fourth with a total of 21. On the Canes end, Andrei Svechnikov has at least one point in twelve of Carolina’s fourteen games so far and he’ll be hungry to keep that streak up. This is their longest win streak since they went 11-0 between February 13 to March 5, 2016.Ĭaptain Ryan Getzlaf recorded his 1000th point in the franchise’s 1000th win during Tuesday night’s match up. At the time of writing, forward Troy Terry is currently on a fifteen-game point streak, and with their Tuesday night win against Washington, the Ducks have won eight straight. The Ducks are an equally strong team who could easily give the Hurricanes a run for their money currently sitting at a 10-4-3 record. The next stop on their trip to the Wild West is to see Wild Wing and the Anaheim Ducks. What does this mean for the Canes? Can they continue this record-breaking season and come back to Raleigh still at the top? In the next month, they will be playing eleven of the next fourteen games on the road with one six-game western (and Philadelphia) roadie, and a northern road trip that will include the central and western Canada teams as well as Minnesota. The Hurricanes have not played the three California teams in a little over two years.

Over the coming month, the Carolina Hurricanes see the longest road trip they have had since before the pandemic ended the 2019-2020 season early.
