The Carolina Hurricanes might not be a complete bunch of jerks after all.

Despite an ongoing feud between Carolina and the Montreal Canadiens, the Hurricanes announced Saturday they have made a donation to the Montreal Canadiens Children's Foundation in honor of World Kindness Day.

The Hurricanes have poked fun at the Canadiens on social media all season, beginning when Carolina signed Jesperi Kotkaniemi to an offer sheet. The contract included a $20 signing bonus - likely alluding to Sebastian Aho's number - after the Canadiens signed Aho to an offer sheet in 2019.

Carolina temporarily launched a website titled www.didthehabslose.com after the Hurricanes defeated Montreal in October. The site featured a video of Aho scrolling on his phone and nodding to answer the question. There were also Aho and Kotkaniemi T-shirts on sale under the promo code "OUI."

"The Hurricanes may battle teams across the league on the ice, but improving communities throughout the U.S. and Canada is a goal everyone can get behind," read a statement from the team.

It added: "The Canes encourage all fans to make a donation to the Carolina Hurricanes Foundation, the Montreal Canadiens Children's Foundation, or the foundation of any other NHL team as we aim to spread kindness throughout the NHL community."
