The hockey world was shocked yesterday by an announcement made by the Hurricanes' Evgeny Kuznetsov. Kuznetsov wants to leave the Hurricanes and possibly the NHL, this is a crazy development. We can only speculate right now on why he would possibly want to leave so early. Kuznetsov most definitely has his reasons for this, and everyone is eager to know why.
The Hurricanes lost a lot in the free agency, and a talented player like Kuznetsov wanting to leave would put them at a bigger disadvantage compared to where they currently are right now. Kuznetsov is a powerhouse in offensive play, and the Hurricanes really can't afford to lose that right now. Finding a suitable replacement would add so much more to their plate.
