RALEIGH, N.C. — Cam Ward played 13 seasons for the Carolina Hurricanes, won a Stanley Cup, started in an NHL All-Star game in Raleigh and soon will be inducted into the team’s new hall of fame.
One thing missing with Carolina: an outdoor game.
Ward had to go to the Chicago Blackhawks, where he spent the last season of his career in 2018-19, to have that kind of unique experience.
