Down 3-0 in the Eastern Conference Finals, the Carolina Hurricanes staved off elimination, taking a 3-0 victory in Game 4 at Amerant Bank Arena. Game 5 is May 28 in Raleigh, North Carolina.

How did the Panthers do it? By hounding the Hurricanes on the forecheck, keeping their gaps tight and keeping Carolina to the outside in the rare opportunity it got in the offensive zone.

When pressed on where the Carolina Hurricanes need to improve this offseason, the coach and general manager spoke mainly in platitudes. Defend really well in our own end. Create turnovers.
