I was hoping I wouldn't have to make this blog entry. I was certainly hoping not to have to make it after only four games. Unfortunately for my beloved Hurricanes, the Penguins were ready to play. Very ready. They dispatched the Hurricanes in just 4 games, clinching a spot in the Stanley Cup Finals by winning game 4 in Raleigh. Ouch.

Ben, being a huge Penguins fan, made the trip up from Orlando for game four. It was rad to hang out with him, and although the Hurricanes lost I'm at least a bit glad that Ben got to see his team clinch the Finals.

I'm pretty stoked about how the Hurricanes have been playing lately. I went to a game last week with Mike and it was intense. Ottawa was in town and despite being down 1-0 in the third period, the Hurricanes were able to rally two back-to-back goals and win the game. This was the team's 5th win in a row and 9th win in a row at home. This ties the franchise record. I'm going to the game tonight where they will hopefully come out on top against the Rangers and set a new record for consecutive home wins.
