  • Equipment Manager Jorge Alves - NHL Goaltender

    Hurricanes equipment manager Jorge Alves has some experience as a goaltender, so when Eddie Lack fell ill Saturday, he was called upon to sign a PTO and ride the bench as the official backup to Cam Ward.

    Well, with 8 seconds left and the faceoff at the other end of the ice, the team actually let him play.

    Jorge Alves fought back tears behind a goalie mask he painted himself as he stood in the hallway leading from the visiting dressing room to the Amalie Arena ice in Tampa Bay.Here he was, all 5-foot-7-inches and 175 pounds of his officially-listed self, outfitted in the No. 40 Carolina Hurricanes
