The New York Rangers and Carolina Hurricanes are set to face off in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
New York easily dispelled the Washington Capitals with the lone four-game sweep of the first round.
Even though Carolina won in five games versus the New York Islanders, the organization was more battle tested than the Blueshirts. In Game 2 on home ice, the Hurricanes rallied from a 3-0 second period deficit and scored five unanswered goals to take a 2-0 series lead.
This head-to-head Metropolitan Division matchup was airtight in the regular season — with the Rangers’ winning two of three games — both decided by one goal.
