The Carolina Hurricanes held serve once again on home ice Thursday night, beating the Rangers 3-1 in an overwhelmingly complete effort to grab a 3-2 series lead.
The Canes did pretty much everything right Thursday, limiting New York to just 17 shots while scoring on the power play for the first time in the series. Vincent Trocheck and Andrei Svechnikov broke out of short slumps with goals, while Teuvo Teravainen stayed hot with a power-play tally.
Following the game five win, Carolina head coach Rod Brind’Amour, Trocheck, Svechnikov and Teravainen spoke with members of the media.
