The Tampa Bay Lightning, New York Islanders and Washington Capitals are each on the brink of elimination in their NHL playoff series. Here's why.
Evgeny Kuznetsov wasted no time making a postseason impact for the Carolina Hurricanes. It's a promising sign for what could be ahead in the NHL playoffs. The trade-deadline acquisition bolstered a deep Carolina team trying to take the final step in a multi-year run as a Stanley Cup contender. “He's a proven winner,” coach Rod Brind'Amour said.
The 2024 NHL Playoffs are officially underway after a couple of Game 1's of Round 1 started on Saturday, April 20. One of those games featured the Carolina Hurricanes facing the New York Islanders in the opening round once again. Both teams faced off in the first round back in the 2023 NHL Playoffs where the Hurricanes defeated the Islanders in six games. As always, the atmosphere in PNC Arena was electric as the Hurricanes fans were ready to show why Carolina is the loudest house in the NHL.
