RALEIGH, N.C.(AP) -- The reeling Carolina Hurricanes are hoping
last year's first-round draft pick, Zach Boychuk, can help them
snap their long losing streak.
The Hurricanes on Thursday said they are recalling the center
from their AHL Albany affiliate and said he will be available to
play Friday night against Toronto.
The 20-year-old Boychuk has four goals and five assists in his
first full professional season with Albany. He was taken with
the 14th pick in the 2008 draft and he played in two games with
the Hurricanes last October before he was returned to his junior
team.
Carolina, an Eastern Conference finalist last season, has lost
10 straight and is 0-6-2 on the road.
