Canes fall flat in Boston again, Bruins force Game 7

With a 3-2 lead and the chance to finish off a first-round series against the Bruins, the Carolina Hurricanes went to Boston and couldn’t get the job done once again Thursday night.

The Bruins beat the Canes 5-2 as many of the issues from games three and four were present for the Hurricanes again in game six, as some ugly special teams play and overall lack of urgency doomed Carolina to another road loss.

While the Canes did a much better job of staying out of the box in this one, Boston still found a way to convert for one power play goal on its three chances.
