I went to my first Canes game of the year last night. It was St. Baldrick's Night, and nearly 200 people came out to shave their heads in support of the incredible charity that funds childhood cancer research.
I could not get over how many kids - as young as 4 years old - got their heads shaved because they wanted to support kids that were going through a tough time. It was inspiring and awesome!
Oh, and there was a hockey game - the Hurricanes took on the Anaheim Ducks and lost in a shootout. But you know what? Not having seen the team play in awhile, I have to say they play a completely different style of hockey under their new coach, Kirk Muller. They fight for every puck and never give up. Eric Staal is energized again and fun to watch.
It's tough to be a low budget team, but if they play like they did last night, they'll be in every game...and will be a team worth watching for a long time to come.
