Coach Quotes:
On Ladd – “He’s good. He has a no practice clause in his contract. I’ve got to get him six practices off a month or his agent calls me.”
On challenges Hurricanes will bring tnt – “Speed. Speed and pace. If you look back even at the last month, when the Carolina Hurricanes get any kind of rest, two or three days off, they come out with a real quick, real fast performance.”
