Here’s the latest on the 2021–22 Carolina Hurricanes season.
-
The Hurricanes finished first in the Metropolitan Division with a 54–20–8 record (including 29–8–4 at home) and reached the second round of the playoffs, where they were eliminated by the New York Rangers in the 2022 postseason.[5]
-
Key roster and moves for that season included:
- Strong core led by Sebastian Aho, Teuvo Teravainen, Andrei Svechnikov, and Jaccob Slavin, with Slavin earning the Lady Byng Trophy the prior season for sportsmanship.[1]
- On the goaltending side, Carolina revamped its tandem by bringing in Antti Raanta and Frederik Andersen to complement existing depth.[1]
- Notable acquisitions included defensemen Ethan Bear and Tony DeAngelo, and forward Jesperi Kotkaniemi, aiming to bolster offense and puck management.[1]

The Hurricanes’ 2021–22 schedule featured a late-season push, including a notable end-of-season stretch and a 9-game win streak during the regular season. They also faced the Rangers in the 2022 playoffs, with the series concluding in favor of New York.[2]
If you’d like, I can pull a concise game-by-game recap or a single-page stats summary (goals, assists, goaltending stats) for that season. I can also add visuals (a chart of wins by month or a playoff run graph) if you want.
