If the Carolina Hurricanes can’t improve the power play, their season will end early.
The Hurricanes have connected at a rate of 21 percent over the course of the 2021-22 season. But don’t let the aggregate fool you: The power play has been in decline for a while now. Since March 1, the Hurricanes’ power-play conversion rate is 25th in the NHL at 15.6 percent. And after April 1, it’s even worse: just 4.8 percent.
