The Carolina Hurricanes have placed backup goalie Brian Boucher on injured reserve and say center Jeff Skinner is out with an undisclosed injury. The team on Sunday also recalled forward Drayson Bowman from its AHL affiliate in Charlotte. Boucher suffered a lower body injury during practice Monday in Calgary but did not elaborate on the injury. The team also did not have any additional details on the injury suffered by Skinner. The reigning NHL rookie of the year leads the last-place Hurricanes with 12 goals and 24 points. The 22-year-old Bowman has two goals and one assist in 34 career games with Carolina. The Hurricanes wrap up their four-game road swing through Canada on Tuesday at Toronto.

Former Hurricanes coach Paul Maurice wishes successor, Kirk Muller, good luck

Via It's Always Sunny in Detroit  |  December 01, 2011
When Paul Maurice was fired from his post as the Carolina Hurricanes head coach on Tuesday, he could have left kicking and screaming. Instead, he packed up his things and left in possibly the classiest way possible. He left a note for his successor, nineteen-year NHL player Kirk Muller, in the Hurricanes locker room.

This may have been Carolina's fourth straight loss but it was also a game where the Hurricanes were the better team. Florida was outchanced 17-13 for the entire game and virtually had no life in the first period but the Canes did not make them pay for it. Once again, some of the blame falls on the powerplay failing to create chances when they had plenty of opportunities (five...

Muller's passion won him first NHL coaching job
