Every game seven has a hero.
Saturday evening in PNC Arena the Carolina Hurricanes’ hero was Max Domi, who scored two goals and had an assist in Carolina’s 3-2 win over the Boston Bruins to move the Canes to the second round and send the Bruins home for the summer.
Domi, the lone trade-deadline acquisition for the Hurricanes, played maybe his best game with the team in its biggest moment so far this season. He had a beautiful assist on Teuvo Teravainen’s game-opening goal, and then he twice bumped the Hurricanes’ advantage to two goals to help move Carolina to 6-0 all-time in game sevens since the relocation.
