This week saw the Checkers' winless skid come to an end, though they continued to struggle to stay consistent, earning three out of a possible eight points on the road.
A hockey season is bound to have its ups and downs. The Checkers have experienced highs this year, highlighted by their franchise record 12-game point streak, but are currently embroiled in a low, spiraling into a nine-game winless streak that is also a franchise record.
The Carolina Hurricanes today announced that they have recalled goaltender Daniel Altshuller from Charlotte. To fill the subsequent spot on their roster, the Checkers have recalled fellow netminder Anthony Peters from their ECHL affiliate, the Florida Everblades.
