Carolina Hurricanes: Endings are simply new beginnings

The Carolina Hurricanes’ Cinderella run deep into the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs have ended. After the sweep of the New York Islanders in round two, the good fortune of our favorite Bunch of Jerks was over. Despite their strong goaltending and 5-on-5 play, they found themselves unable to find a way against the Boston Bruins. In a trend set from the start of the 2019 playoffs, the Carolina Hurricanes found themselves swept in the Eastern Conference Finals. This is not to say that the Hurricanes were a poor team, on the contrary, they were a fantastic team. The Bruins were just better, with their power play clicking upwards of 60% during the four game series.
