Hurricanes advance to Eastern Conference Finals
The Carolina Hurricanes have surprised everyone, knocking off the Boston Bruins in dramatic fashion to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.
Carolina beat the best team in the conference, the Boston Bruins, on the road with an overtime goal in Game 7.
The Hurricanes already pulled the upset in the first round, knocking off the New Jersey Devils in even more dramatic fashion, rallying from a one goal deficit in the final two minutes of the game.
Carolina will now have its hands full with the Pittsburgh Penguins, who rallied from a 2-0 series deficit to defeat the Washington Capitals in Game 7 as well.
The Hurricanes will have the advantage in goal though with Cam Ward, who has been by far the hottest goaltender in the postseason.
