Canes update: Halloween

Tomorrow is the 10th game of the regular season and against the Edmonton Oilers. This marks the first time that Erik Cole will be playing against the Hurricanes.

The season isn't the best start with 25 goals for and 24 goals against, but it's good enough for a 5-2-2 record and third position in the Eastern Conference. There are only two teams with GF-GA differences positive and greater than 6, so it's a very competitive conference so far.

After missing the playoffs last year, the Canes will need to average around 12 points every 10 games.

So far so good...

Hurricanes injured again?

After spending most of the 2007-2008 season with at least a few Canes injured, it looks like 2008-2009 might be a replay.

Not only is Williams out for at least half the season, but Walker hasn't yet played a game and Ruutu and Kaberle have already missed time this year.

Now, after the last game, it looks like Sutter and Pitkanen will be out indefinitely.

It's time for the AHL players to step up again.
