Not since Boston and Los Angeles in 2020 has the sports world's attention and curiosity been so concentrated on one area of America as Florida in 2023.

Max Pacioretty must torn his right achilles for the second time, leaving the Carolina Hurricanes without one of the Carolina Hurricanes' long-serving veterans.

After the initial tear of his right achilles tendon, the 34-year-old underwent surgery in the summer.
