As Hurricanes training camp got underway in late September the injury bug landed at Raleigh-Durham International Airport. Prospects Vasili Ponomarev and Ryan Suzuki were the first members of the organization to be bitten in the infant stages of the season, but have both since recovered. Now more than halfway through the season, Hurricanes fans are anxiously waiting for any news on either of the Russian players or Frederick Andersen who’s been indefinitely sidelined since being diagnosed with a blood-clotting issue.
