Hurricanes - PR

HURRICANES HAVE THE ONE-TWO LINE COMBO
The Hurricanes have a heavy threat with Six forwards
The Calgary Hurricanes are looking sharp. The Hurricanes picked a youngster in the TFHL13 draft, and today, he is leading the TFHL in scoring. Alexandre Svitov is tops on the league and is currently on pace for 198 points. Alex suggests his second season in the TFHL seems more relaxed and he is more confident because of the aid he's received by one of the leagues top snipers in Markus Naslund.
The 'Canes are a threat to be reckoned with with the second line of Shane Endicott, Mike York and Alexandre Svitov putting up more points than the top line of Markus Naslund, Shawn Bates and Bill Guerin. "I don't think it necessarily means we have a problem. Markus is a strong player and he is getting a lot of chances. Once he starts clicking and if our youngsters on the second line can keep things up, its going to be a great year." said coach Marc Crawford.
