Im rooting for the Hurricanes but Vegas is really playing well.

 

[biggunsbob]

Vegas has now won 7 in a row in the playoffs.

Shame looks like a 39 Win Vegas team is going to win this thing.

In game 3 Carolina scored 3 goals in 39 seconds to force ot
They. dominated the first ot. Then a slapshot off the boards goes off the goalies back and in. Vegas was pushing Carolina in the 2nd ot. But it was still a Lucky goal.

IDK .. I was watching the first period and it looked like an intersquad pre-season scrimmage to me. The teams went 13+ minutes without a shot.

Carolina wins three in a row to take the series.

Again why didn't Steve want to keep
Shayne
Gostisbehere ?

7 shutouts in the playoffs and Carolina had 4 of them i think I heard.

The Carolina Hurricanes rookie goalie is Brandon Bussi. He is an undrafted 27-year-old out of Western Michigan University who made a historic jump to the NHL this season, notably taking over in net for the Hurricanes during the 2026 Stanley Cup Final.


We have a top rookie that has sat in Grand Rapids for 5 years .
Cossa not good enough to trade or play in Detroit.
