Carolina by Rod Brindamore continues to amaze. Playing in the playoffs without three main forwards, the team confidently rushes to the conference finals. After the previous disastrous match in New Jersey, the Hurricanes did some quality work on the mistakes and simply crushed the opponent on his ice. The first period did not portend a disaster for the Devils, but following the break, the hosts received a powerful knockout from which they might not recover.
The second dvadtsatiminutka became the key in this meeting, and the third period turned into a formality. The Hurricanes scored five unanswered goals, and the first three of them were within three and a half minutes. Lindy Ruff was forced to take a timeout, but this did not help his team. At the same time, the “devils” continued in the series of goalkeeper leapfrog. Vitek Vanechek coped with 12 shots out of 17 and lost his place at the gate to Akira Schmidt.
The main hero of the shock game segment was the forward of the Carolinas Jordan Martinuk. The Canadian scored a goal and scored two assists. In four games, he already has 9 (3+6) points. Interestingly, in the series once morest the Islanders, he did not score a single point. Many scolded the “hurricanes” for their straightforwardness in attack, but it’s a good sign for the team when, at a difficult moment, different players unexpectedly take the lead.
Debut puck in the current playoffs marked Brent Burns. The seasoned quarterback became the sixth player in club history to score a goal in the Stanley Cup at age 38 or older. But the “devils” have nothing to remember for the match. The team almost lost Jack Hughes due to an injury, and also made 26 losses in the game, once morest two from the opponent. In the playoffs, such numbers are not allowed. The series moves to Raleigh and so far everything is moving towards the fact that the three Staal brothers will play in the final of the East.
