RESILIENT CANES RALLY TO TIE WILD
Carolina
The Hurricanes who had given up a shorthanded goal early in the third, fought hard to come back and pick up the point versus the Minnesota Wild. Steve Eminger's point shot at the 16 minute mark eluded the Wild netminder Cechmanek and the Canes managed to snag a tie. The Canes undefeated streak has now hit 11 games.
"It was a war out there," said defenseman Jay McKee who was wearing a welt on the side of his face from a pounding he took from enormous defenseman Libor Ustrnal, former Plymouth Whaler. "Sometimes you gotta take your licks but I found out quickly I was not in the right place at the right time."
As McKee was pounded into the ice, forward Scott Parker, the Sheriff of Parkingham, was screaming at Libor to try on someone his own size.
"I guess Libor wanted to beat up one of our non fighters," said Parker, "and that's fine. But I'll remember."
Cory Stillman had 2 points in the contest and increased his season total to 8 goals and 15 assists for a team leading 23 points.
The Canes next contest is tonight against the Dallas Stars.
