It’s finally here.
The NHL Playoffs.
After a long 82-game season, the moment that everyone has been waiting for has now arrived and the Carolina Hurricanes are gearing up to face the New York Islanders in Round 1.
The Canes won the Metropolitan Division and the Isles snuck into the playoffs as WC1 setting the stage for the rematch of the 2019 Second Round, where the Hurricanes swept the Islanders in four games.
It’s looking to be a different series this year, with a lot of new faces on each side, but stylistically, it may look fairly similar.
