For many years, the Carolina Hurricanes were one of those franchises that heard every chirp from fan bases throughout the league in regards to their attendance and fans ‘not caring’ about the team.

Well, if there’s one thing Hurricanes fans have proved to the rest of the league over the past couple of seasons is that they care about their team and attendance isn’t an issue. If the team’s Storm Surges haven’t won you over, their community efforts just might.

On Monday, five members of the Hurricanes teamed up with five students from Durham Nativity School and treated them to a day of Christmas shopping for their entire families.

It was all first-year Hurricanes players as Ryan Dzingel, Joel Edmundson, James Reimer, Erik Haula and Jake Gardiner were the five guys who took part in the initiative, and they made sure the kids got everything on their lists.

You might not be a Hurricanes fan or a fan of their Storm Surge, but it’s hard to dislike a team that spends a lot of time in the community giving back to their fans.
