Home. Sweet. Home.
The Hurricanes returned to PNC Arena Tuesday night and looked much more like their normal selves, beating Boston 5-1 to take a 3-2 advantage in the series with their third dominant win on home ice.
The Canes were good from the get go, as Jaccob Slavin and Tony DeAngelo scored in an overwhelming first period to give Carolina a 2-0 lead for the third straight game in PNC. Seth Jarvis added a pair of goals to make it 4-0, while Vincent Trocheck pitched in an empty netter to put the final nail in Boston’s coffin.
