Canes set to open 2008-2009 season at home against Florida
Jul 16, 2008
RALEIGH, NC - The Carolina Hurricanes will open their 2008-09 season at the RBC Center against the Florida Panthers on October 10th at 7pm, the NHL announced Wednesday afternoon. The league announced the home openers for each of its 30 member clubs, and is slated to announce each team’s complete 2008-09 schedule on July 17.
Along with announcing each team’s opener, the NHL also announced each clubs’s “wildcard” opponents.
The Hurricanes will face its divisional opponents – Atlanta, Florida, Tampa Bay and Washington – six times during the season, and its non-divisional conference opponents four times. Carolina will also play every Western Conference team at least once, and will play home-and-home sets with their three “wildcard” Western Conference teams, the Anaheim Ducks, Phoenix Coyotes and St. Louis Blues.

Excited about this team (need to saty healthy)!!!! Can't wait to see this new blueline group (big, fast, physical and can score)!
I love Canes hockey and can't wait to get this new season started.
maybe they can start the year off the same way they ended last year, by choking against the lowly Panthers.
CANES WOOOOO
