There’s nothing like playoff hockey! Last night was game six of the Carolina Hurricanes verse the Nashville Predators and boy was it a wild game. If you were in my house last night, it was filled with a lot of tension and excitement. As the game was in overtime we were all on the edge of our seat until…
