As a refresher (although you probably don’t need it), the Boston Bruins handled the Hurricanes in four games in the Conference Finals last season. Carolina was no match for a Bruins attack that nearly won it all.
This year, expect a closer encounter with the Hurricanes. The Boston Bruins look like a wagon so far, but Carolina fields a solid team on the ice as well.
The Hurricanes are a well-balanced team from top to bottom, as they are top ten in the league in goals for and goals against. Also, they scored six more goals than the league average and surrendered five fewer goals than the average.
