Why you should care: This very well may be a first round playoff matchup preview. The Checkers have been and shall remain a very dangerous team. We have been monitoring the Checkers’ parent team, the Carolina Hurricans to see if they make the playoffs because the thought is that if the Hurricans miss the playoffs, you are not going to want to face the Checkers come playoff time.
