22 Days Carolina Hurricanes Comment

Cam Ward doesn't think his knee injury was the reason for Carolina's No. 26 finish in the league's overall standings.

"There's other areas where we just weren't good enough," Ward said. "I guess it was bad timing but you had Justin Faulk go down, you had Joni (Pitkanen) go down, you can go down the list. At the end of the day it wasn't good enough." He appeared in 17 games before suffering a season-ending knee injury on March 3rd. Dan Ellis and Justin Peters started 16 games apiece in 2013, but as expected none of them was able to match the numbers that Ward put up during his 16 starts.

Cam Ward has been placed on injured reserve by the Hurricanes.

The move isn't surprising after it was announced this morning that Ward will miss six-to-eight weeks with a third-degree sprain of his MCL. He won't require surgery but the loss of their top goaltender will be hard on the Hurricanes. Carolina will count on backup Dan Ellis and minor-league call-up Justin Peters for now.

Ward was hurt in the second period of yesterday's contest vs. the Panthers when his own defenceman Justin Faulk slid into him. Ward stopped all 15 shots he faced and still recorded the win but this is terrible news for the Hurricanes. A 6-8 week injury means Ward will likely miss the rest of the season. The Hurricanes will now have to go with Dan Ellis and Justin Peters as their goaltenders.

The Hurricanes announced Monday that Cam Ward will be sidelined for six-to-eight weeks because of a third-degree sprain of the medial collateral ligament (MCL).

He won't need to undergo surgery, which may be the only silver lining in this. Look for Carolina to recall Justin Peters, who could battle Dan Ellis for playing time, during Ward's absence. Ward has posted a 9-6-1 record with a .908 save percentage and a 2.84 GAA this campaign.
