The club was embarrassed on home ice by the Pittsburgh Penguins, dropping a 7-1 contest to their Metropolitan counterparts, leaving a bad taste in the mouth of Jordan Staal.

It certainly wasn't pretty with the Penguins out-shooting the Hurricanes 41-28. It also saw the Penguins continue their dominance over the club.
