Hurricanes drop heartbreaker
The Carolina Hurricanes put up a strong effort on the road but it wasn’t enough to topple the New Jersey Devils.
The Hurricanes fell to New Jersey, 1-0, thanks to the lone goal of the game scored in the early moments of the third period.
Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur was simply too much for the Hurricanes, which is hardly anything to be ashamed about.
The shutout was the 23rd of Brodeur’s playoff career, tying the all-time record.
He managed such a strong effort despite a collision at the net that resulted in a skate slicing his leg.
