RALEIGH, N.C. - Doug Warf, President of the National Hockey League’s Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that construction is underway on two new street hockey rinks at Apex Community Park. The rinks are the result of a partnership between the team and the NHL’s Industry Growth Fund, through which $550,000 was provided to fund the project.

In a three-team blockbuster NHL trade, the Carolina Hurricanes added two key forwards from Colorado and Chicago.

New Hurricanes star winger Mikko Rantanen was reportedly blindsided by his trade from the Avalanche on Friday.

Did the Avalanche get a sufficient trade return for Mikko Rantanen? Will Rantanen adjust to the Hurricanes' style? Is acquiring a star rental player worth it? All that and much more.
