US company making masks for sports fans to stay safe and show team pride
WinCraft CEO John Killen says the new products have been a phenomenal success for the company hit hard by COVID-19.
The Carolina Hurricanes will take on the New York Rangers in one of the most unpredictable qualifying round matchups.
The Canes finished off with a better record than the Rangers but in head-to-head matchups this season, the Canes got swept in all four regular season games. New York has more goals per game and a better power play but Carolina has a far better penalty kill percentage and ranks third in shots on goal per game.
The Rangers will be a tough opponent, having played some of their best hockey right before the season was suspended on March 12. Without Brett Pesce and the possibility of Dougie Hamilton not being ready for the series, the Canes will rely on Sami Vatanen to fill the void.
