The Force was with the Carolina Hurricanes.
After a victory at PNC Arena on "Star Wars Night" the team celebrated with a different kind of Storm Surge, a full-on lightsaber battle.
The Resistance was led by Sebastian Aho, or Ahobi-Wan Kenobi if you will. He vanquished Teuvo Teavader.
But the celebration was hardly the only reference to the space epic.
Darth Vader himself kicked things off by ringing the siren.
And, the team's Twitter account was pretty active with the puns throughout the game.
Even forward Andrei Svechnikov got in on the act after the win.
As the team left the ice, they had even transformed their "Bunch of Jerks" motto to read "Bunch of Jedi."
