Former NHLer calls out The Athletic ahead of the 2nd round

The first second round matchup is set, the New York Rangers will be facing off against the Carolina Hurricanes in what is expected to be a feisty series.

The Athletic quickly slammed down the business plan of Carolina, however former NHLer Aaron Ward defended the Carolina Hurricanes. Ward went on X and quote tweeted the Athletic the following:

More details to come.
