The Carolina Hurricanes looked to slam the door on what has been a relatively concerning trend in these playoffs - losing on the road.
The Boston Bruins won all three of their game at TD Garden in the first round, and while the Hurricanes have held remarkably strong at PNC Arena, one would think winning on the road will eventually become a must for a team looking to win a Stanley Cup.
That didn’t happen on Sunday at Madison Square Garden.
The New York Rangers scored early and held onto their lead until the final horn en route to their first win in this second-round series.
