Hurricanes Respond to the Woodshed
February 15th, 2018 The Carolina Hurricanes seem to need the woodshed. At least that's what it looked like given their recent play. After the team exhibited a brutal lack of effort in both their home games against the Detroit Red Wings and San Jose Sharks, head coach Bill Peters took the team to the verbal woodshed. Since then, they lost 2-1 in overtime...

Now it’s almost as if they’re trying to desperately make up for past mistakes with (very) little chance at catching...
Kostitsyn Not the Answer to Woes of Montreal Canadiens

It was a relatively clever play on his initials, uniform number and the AK-27 moniker of teammate Alexei Kovalev.
