Maxim Lapierre scored the lone shootout goal Tuesday night to give the Canadiens a 3-2 win over the Carolina Hurricanes in Montreal.

The blank stares turned to smiles of joy for the Carolina Hurricanes in a wild finish Thursday night at the RBC Center.

'Canes forward Tom Kostopoulos's stick sacrifice helped former teammate Josh Gorges snap a slump last season.

They hadn't had a victory in more than five weeks. 'There were five or six we should have won but didn't get a break,' GM Jim Rutherford says.

Five and a half weeks of futility finally ended for the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday afternoon as they broke a string of 14 games without a win by beating the Minnesota Wild 5-4 in a shootout.

"It's an unfortunate reason why I'm coming here, but I'm excited. This is too good a team to be struggling but weird stuff is happening -- they just aren't getting those bounces.

Jussi Jokinen and the Carolina Hurricanes finally got to feel good about themselves Sunday.

The Carolina Hurricanes have already set a record for the franchise's longest losing streak and will try to avoid matching the club's longest stretch without a win when they host the New York Islanders tonight at RBC Center.

There doesn't figure to be too much pressure on Manny Legace when he makes his Hurricanes debut tonight -- only the task of stopping the club's longest losing streak in team history.

Carolina coach Paul Maurice thinks Manny Legace will be motivated in his return to the NHL.

Leave it to the new guy to show the Los Angeles Kings how to finish. Randy Jones had a goal and an assist in his debut with the Kings, and Los Angeles beat Carolina 5-2 on Wednesday night to extend the Hurricanes' winless streak to 13.

This is almost a no-lose situation for Manny Legace. The veteran goalie is the newest member of the Carolina Hurricanes, called upon to fill in for injured Cam Ward on the team with the NHL's worst record.

Carolina's quest to snap its franchise-record tying losing streak just got a little harder, as the Hurricanes will be without center Eric Staal for tonight's game against the Florida Panthers at BankAtlantic Center.

The Carolina Hurricanes had already lost starting goaltender Cam Ward. Then they lost yet another game.

Coming off the first playoff appearance in franchise history and vying for the Central Division lead, the Columbus Blue Jackets can certainly be considered a successful franchise.

Jeff Finger is finally getting the nod. After sitting on the sideline as a healthy scratch for the past six games, Finger will replace Garnet Exelby when the Maple Leafs meet the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh at the RBC Center Friday night.

Florida goalie Tomas Vokoun simply wouldn't let the Carolina Hurricanes end their losing streak.
