Game Preview and Prediction
The Panthers enter the series after a commanding 6-1 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs in Game 7 of the second round. Their offense is firing on all cylinders, with key contributions from Brad Marchand and Eetu Luostarinen. However, goaltending inconsistencies from Sergei Bobrovsky could be a concern.
The Hurricanes, on the other hand, have been dominant, eliminating the Washington Capitals in five games. Andrei Svechnikov and goaltender Frederik Andersen have been standout performers, leading a high-pressure team that’s difficult to play against.
Prediction: Carolina Hurricanes 4, Florida Panthers 2
