Dougie Hamilton takes a moment to compose himself as Hurricanes fans chant his name

This just in: The Carolina Hurricanes are for real.

After coming out of nowhere last season and making a run to the Eastern Conference Final, people are finally starting to take notice of the Hurricanes. And don’t look now, but the Hurricanes are off to a red hot start this season going 3-0-0 to start the campaign, including an exciting 4-3 OT win over the Tampa Bay Lightning yesterday evening.

Jaccob Slavin scored the OT winner, while Dougie Hamilton, Brett Pesce and Erik Haula also scored for the Hurricanes who held the high-powered Lightning offence to just 10 shots through the final 40 minutes.

After the game Hamilton was interviewed on the team’s bench in front of a raucous home crowd who chanted his name throughout the entire interview. In fact, Hamilton had to take a moment just to drink it all in before thanking the fans for their support.

How cool is that? Dougie has had some serious up and downs throughout his career and the fan support hasn’t always been there. It appears that Dougie have finally found his home now, however.
